Yes
>>
>>82811721
Absolutely. It's one of the few cartoons where you'll almost never hear a word against it on /co/.
>>
>>82811721
No it's random tier humor. Pretty much every episode is "aren't old comics quirky?"
Might me fun for a 6 or 7 year old that likes silly colors and over reacting people but if you want that you're better off with Spongebob which does kid humor better.

>No it's random tier humor. Pretty much every episode is "aren't old comics quirky?"

No. If you actually like and read those old comics, there are some pretty damn good adaptations here. The humor is closer to uncle jokes, but only because it was like that in Golden Age and Silver Age stuff...

No the humor is pretty poor. Take example one episode turns everyone into apes and plays on the aren't monkeys as humans funny reused jokes from a decade ago.
It's pretty much being silly late to the party when Freakazoid and Spongebob surpass it and did it already years before.

Fuck this series is so good. A few episodes are bland, but as a whole so many winners and just original stuff you can't find in any other DC cartoon.

>>82811932
Clearly it isn't dark or edgy enough for you anon. It's alright, we all make mistakes.
>>
>>82811932
That's because all the jokes were written decades before spongebob and freakazoid. They're old stories retooled.

It was a pretty cool way of getting some lesser known heroes on television, since Batman is pretty much the only thing that isn't a risk for DC to animate.
>>
>>82811721
Definitely

>>82812076

It also has probably my favorite Aquaman.

It has the best version of aquaman there is. If anything it's worth watching only because of aquaman.
>>
>>82812076
It was amazing how much it pulled from. Not just the obscure heroes it featured, but how it embraced all of Batman's history, from Bat-Manga! to The Dark Knight Returns.

It had superdickery, it had emperor joker, it had the best batmite, it had the best aquaman, it had dickbats, it had ted and booster, it had chill of the night.

there's a few mediocre episodes but if you're into golden and silver age stuff or even just the general tone of those ages there's a lot to love here.

I could never get into it myself. I understand that it was an homage to the zany plotlines and characters of silver age comics, but going into it after watching the DCAU felt like going from Teen Titans to Teen Titans Go.

I think they had a betting pool going in the writer's room for the most obscure reference they could work into a show successfully. I mean seriously, the the final episode was Bat-Mite vs. Ambush Bug, AND THEY MADE IT WORK.
>>
It's not silly, or random, it's just campy.

It's like what kids wanted out of their 70s cartoons instead of what they got. It's saturday morning minus the censors.
It's great.
>>
>birds of prey imply aquaman has a tiny donger
OUTRAGEOUS

The only real issue with this show is that sometimes it goes out of its way to have everyone suck Batman's cock, but it's a minor gripe. The show is solid, very solid. Probably the best Batman show tied with BTAS, though it deals with a different side of Batman that BTAS didn't so they shouldn't really be compared as they're apples and oranges. But I'd say they're on par in quality while being night and day.
>>
>>82816065
I'd say that BTAS is a notch better in terms of pure craftsmanship, but BATB is a very honorable silver medal.

Sometimes I hear Dietrich Bader's voice in my head when I'm reading, and if that's not a sign of quality, I don't know what is.
>>
>>82816157
BTAS is better, but I would rather watch BATB.

Except Chill of the Night which is the best animated Batman story of all time.

Its a love letter to the "Fighting giant robot gorillas on the moon" style of comics.

I think the best thing about batb is it helped bridge the gap between aquamans super friends image and a more serious take on him.

BatB Aquaman is so genuine. People have brought up before how a lot of writers who are fans of the character come across as defensive because they feel they have to respond to the "he just talks to fish" jokes, but BaTB pretty much ignored that crap and just showed him as an adventurous, genial king of the sea.

>>82818696
Really, this is how Aquaman should be outside his comics. Just a fun loving king embracing his goofy image. It lures casuals into a false sense of security before he shows just how badass he can really be.

>>82812467
And they used Superdick covers! The Superman episode was wonderful.
