Never actually watched it. Can anyone here who did say if it was any good.
>>150568339Yes, it's good.
>>150568339Yeah it’s good, basically a love letter to silver age comics.
This show is /co/ as /co/ can be, who here hasn't seen it? >November 18, 2011Oh my
>>150568339The voice alone makes it worth watching
>>150568534Jeff Bennet doesn't get enough credit for his Joker voice
>>150568339it is in okay category if you like campy Batman
>>150568603You don't need to do this
I love it. BATB and the B:TAS saga (up through Beyond) are my quintessential BatmenBATB holds up. Episodes are tight, lean and charming. It didn't run forever so you can watch the whole thing relatively quickly. Great bittersweet finale that leaves you wanting more (the Scooby Doo crossover movie is a nice coda)It's a love letter to the lore of DC Comics of yesteryear
>>150568339It's crazy, but BTAS was also a nostalgia wank. The difference was the artistic direction and the lack of quips. But it was exactly the same to the point that BATAB shares some plots with the other.
>>150568339Was it good, he asks.
>>150568339Yeah, it is good. It made me actually like Aquaman.
>>150568935Yup, we got pure kino.
>>150568339its aquaman walked so mamoa's could run
>>150568339It's the gold standard.It also had the best Aquaman in decades.
>>150568339It's the best Batman cartoon
>>150568339Yeah, it is good. Especially the Aquaman episodes
>>150568945peak.
>>150568945>>150570723He looks like he fucks fish
>>150568339It's pure KINO
>>150568339Watch it right now.
>>150568339It's fun. It was a favorite show of mine back in the day, but it is definitely on the cartoonier side. Better than The Batman 2004 but not as good as BTAS storywise. Can be funny, which Batman doesn't usually do. Also all the Joker episodes were fucking kino. They even redid the intro for one with him instead.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w7JfnMixPmIWatch this and tell me if it's "any good".
>>150568339This thread is 4 hours old, I assumed you have watched some episodes by now OP because without reading any replies I know everyone has said it's good because it is
Do it
s'pretty good. I do wish we got that JL spinoff
Honestly one of the best versions of batman. If you somehow struck a perfect chord between this, BTAS, and the Arkham series you would have the objectively perfect batman.
Watch it you slack-jawed yokel.
>>150568935Vampire Batman wasn't a good episode.
>>150568339Batman TAS is to serious Batman as Batman BatB is to silly Batman. They're both 10/10 but fall on totally different sides of the character, and in many ways both can be considered definitive versions of those sides.
>>150568339Its fun
>>150568339The art style is neat
I couldn't appreciate it when I was younger because I just wanted more DCAU.
>>150568339Motherfucker, you are in for a ride. Go watch it NOW!
>>150568339It's Batman And Friends, essentially, being based on the original Brave And The Bold comics where each issue was about him teaming up with a different super. Lots of obscure (and I mean OBSCURE) DC characters showing up on both sides in this show.
>>150578828That was how basically everyone reacted at first until word started going around that it was genuinely good. I remember Mayhem of the Music Meister being a huge turning point.
It's funny how he and the other heroes in this series were significantly more competent than their JLU counterparts.
I like this Superman
>>150568339s'okay
It's great seeing a Batman who motivated, not naval-gazing, and who isn't a nutcase.
>>150582954I feel like he's a bit dry honestly. I like the show a lot but it's carried by the guest heroes
>>150578828>>150579347I always liked gold and silver age stuff as a kid, and plus it came out when I was just old enough to realize what it was trying to do
>>150584519I also remember losing my fucking mind when they did an episode with the Metal Men in it, because for some reason I loved them as a kid
>>150568339I liked it.
>>150578828All of us wanted more DCAU hell I still want more, this was a different flavor of good shit though.
batwank
When i was a kid i thought blue beetle was cool in this show
>>150584536I was glad to see the Doom Patrol. FIRE AWAY!
>>150572575Every song in this show was great
>>150584698Funny enough silver age doom patrol is another group I have alot of affinity for, its one of 5 or 6 silver age series I have read a ton of
Adam Strange. That's pretty cool.
>>150576293>Batman TAS is to serious Batman as Batman BatB is to silly Batman. They're both 10/10 but fall on totally different sides of the character, and in many ways both can be considered definitive versions of those sides.Counter-argument.
>>150573917fantastic roster.
>>150568339Enjoyable adventures of classic Batman, while also having a few episodes with Kevin Conroy guest starring.
>>150568369>basically a love letter to batman>>150569032>so mamoa's could chug>>150569146>the best batwank
>>150579347I actually went into it without knowing anything or expectations and 30 seconds into the cold open of the first episode I shit myself with laughter. I was instantly sold on the show
>>150584896Wasn’t this episode banned
>>150568339It's got my favorite wondy design
>>150572575I just love how meaty the punches are. True THWACKS and POWS
>>150568339how come Batman gets to be both light hearted and edgy and everyone is fine with it, but Superman can only be light hearted or else Superman fans piss and shit themselves
>>150568339It's fun. It's a pallet clenser after all of the fuck awful grimdark bullshit and desperate attempts to be realistic and philosophical.
>>150585617Counter counter argument, what the fuck does that pic have to do with anything
>>150586437Fuck yourself.
>>150585574Kinda strange too
>>150585792Stfu
>>150585617That image is completely unrelated to the post, did you mean to post something else?
>>150586437>Gee Batman, how come mom lets you have TWO kino series with totally opposing tones?>MY PARENTS ARE DEAAAAAD
>>150584832Wew
>>150576293I came to post "BATMAN DOES NOT EAT NACHOS" but you beat me to it. Thank you anon.
>>150568339I like it but I feel the best parts are when it forgets it's a batman show and just explores DC silver age.
>>150588782There are a lot of episodes where it's less "Batman with Guest" and more "DC hero star and Batman is also there"
Hammertoes is the best villain
Not only was Timm responsible for resurrecting over 90% of Batman's rogues gallery that had been forgotten over time, but his nostalgia-based approach to storytelling paved the way for Brave and the Bold.
>>150576293This, it's the silly answer to what TAS did and proves that you can make both versions of Batman work phenomenally well.
Best version of Wildcat and casting Lee Ermey was perfection.
>>150570805Well, more like a fish adjacent human, but your not THAT far off
>>150584832So hot
I haven't seen it since I was a child. I'm not sure how much of this is nostalgia.
>>150586237
>>150586237https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cIOpSAmSqt4
>>150585617Why are you like this, mate?
It was good, but I feel like it was almost limited by being a Batman show. I know Batman prints money and a pure DC Showcase might have been hard to sell to suits and fans but it really shines when it's focused on the guest.
>>150596586>it really shines when it's focused on the guestEh, not really, the best episode of the series is completely Batman-focused.
>>150596739Stuff like Chill of the Night is good but I think it boils down to a matter of focus.
>>150573917There was gonna be a spinoff?
>>150579347Yep. First couple of episodes were a shrug then you acclimated and it was fucking amazing.
/co/ devoured this back when it was airing. It was really good. Back when we made a lot of threads about Booster Gold, Blue Beetle, and the Question too.
it's not the best of batman but it is a love letter to silver age with some good episodes for adults with rewatching, it's specifically made for kids. that being said, it has some crazy ass shit which makes it a fun watch
