Editorial Review:

Amazon.com:
Warner Brothers' Batman: The Animated Series (1992-1995) remains a striking, stylized program that helped to revitalize the familiar comic book hero. Drawing on such diverse influences as Frank Miller's graphic novel The Dark Knight Returns, the Fleischers' Superman cartoons of the early '40s, and contemporary Japanese animation, the filmmakers stress interesting designs and cinematography. The Caped Crusader prowls a sinister, Art Deco-styled world of tall verticals, sharp angles, silhouettes, searchlights, and grid-like shadows cast by window frames. Its visual pizzazz eclipses Filmation's pallid kidvid, The Batman/Superman Hour (CBS, 1968), which ran off and on in various incarnations through 1981. Many of the same artists worked on the Batman animated features (e.g., Mask of the Phantasm (1993), Batman Beyond--The Movie (1999)), which display similar strengths and weaknesses.

Ironically, Batman: The Animated Series looks better in stills than it does in motion. The artists fail to stylize the movements of the characters to match the dramatic settings, as Genndy Tartakovsky and his crew did in Samurai Jack. Batman uses sophisticated computers to combat the well-known villains--the Joker, the Penguin, Mr. Freeze, Catwoman--as well as some less celebrated baddies: Manbat, Clayface, The Mad Hatter. The bad guys cram a lot of plotting and scheming into each 22-minute episode, but the violence is kept to a broadcast standards minimum.

The Dark Knight's First Knight easily ranks as the most interesting of the extras. Producers Bruce Timm and Eric Radomski recount the genesis of the series, and show their mini-pilot, which is more violent and more fully animated. If the complete episodes had matched the pilot, the series would have been much more exciting. (Unrated, suitable for ages 8 and older: violence, mild grotesque imagery) --Charles Solomon

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - The Beginnings of a Legend
I grew up watching Batman: The Animated Series on TV. I would tape every episode, I had all of the action figures, and if there was a new episode on you better not even try to talk to me until it was over. Little did I know the show I enjoyed so much as a kid was being enjoyed by people of all ages, and would go on to be recognized as one of the definitive screen versions of the character. And rewatching these episodes as an adult, I couldn't agree more.

First off, you cannot really ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The Perils of Gotham City
This review focuses on Burton's Batman (Batman89, Batman Returns), Nolan's Batman (Batman Begins, the Dark Knight), and 1992 original Batman: The Animated Series. I'm excluding Schumacher's Batman (Batman Forever, Batman and Robin), the 1960's Batman series, and "The Batman", simply because I believe they are the weakest representations.

To be perfectly honest, I love Burton, Nolan, and BTAS equally. All three interpretations are so different, that they cannot be compared. And it is really ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - bang for your buck
i have to say this was so good. my little brother and i watched the whole season the day we got it, i am a major justice league, batman, superman fan and if you love any of the 3 then you should watch this.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Top notch entertainment!
Batman-The animated Series Volume one is a great example of what a well throughout quality action series can be. The animation, writing, and overall appearance is fantastic. I highly recommend this series to anyone who appreciates great action and quality animation.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Good episodes thrown slopperly together
It would have been better if Batman Animated Series was released in seasons rather than volumes. Mostly because episodes have been put on each Volume in a sloppy way where they are out of order. I just recommend this volume because it's not like the seasons are available and there's at least a lot of good episodes here. We get a lot of good episodes with top villains such as the Joker, Two Face, Catwoman, Scare Crow, Poison Ivy, ManBat, Croc, Clay Face and the Riddler.
