We're all aware of how good the BatB Joker is, I assume? He's just what we need in this age of DC pushing Jared Leto and other assorted edgy nonsense in his name. The character works best with a touch of class and that old-time comic flare.
It was a great way to portray the Joker without trying to imitate BTAS
>>83498019
Joker works as a balance. Can't be too silly, but can't be too serious. Has to be terrifying, but also has to be incredibly fun.

Ya, which is probably why it only lasted 3 seasons, but it was still a decent run and the finale was one of the best finales any capeshit show has ever had. Fuck, most capeshit shows don't even GET finales.
>>83498019
i will be forever grateful that bennett lent his voice to batb, it was a gift.
emperor joker was the best adaptation of a comic arc in any animated series, and it pandered directly to me and my need for the batman/joker dynamic.
i miss it, too.

My favorite Aquaman ever is from BatB; after all, how could you not like someone soOUTRAGEOUS?
>>83499911
i don't understand how you can watch the 'let's mock the shit out of batman' show if you like batman
>>83500994
>liking a character means you can never make fun of them
BatB was basically "Silver Age Batman: the cartoon"
Where the fuck can I get downloads for this.
>>83500994
No matter how dark or brooding he becomes Batman is a man who dresses up like a Bat to fight a bunch of reject Dick Tracy villains. If you can't step back and laugh at the idea sometimes then you've got a problemalso he was created to entertain children
>>83498019That episode where he tortures Batman by killing him again and again after he gained Batmites powers.
I did not expect this show to be this dark.
>>83500994
By having a sense of humor. You just sound like a bitch.
This was a show made by people who loved the characters and stories they were working with and it shines through in just about every episode.
>>83500878
Magical.
>>83500994
Casual detected. Read some comics before posting on this board.
His heroic Redhood doppleganger was so good. Dat voice like butter.

>>83500600
But Batman never tracked down all of the Equinox shards...
>>83501538
And didn't rely on trying to directly piss people off. Even when they made fun of critics calling the show too goofy all it was was "Batman has a rich history that allows him to be portrayed in different ways" rather than saying "This show is for kids only and shouldn't appeal to anyone else. Fuck you.".
I think I have to nominate Chill of the Night for best episode overall. It's hard.

Or, you know, he's a versatile character that can change to fit the tone of the narrative he's being used in, while.still being true to the character's core tenants.
>>83501961
Brave and the Bold fags hoisted by their own petard!
That Superman episode was my favorite, and I loved that they shined the spotlight on Captain Marvel and the Marvel family. I just wished Wonder Woman had an episode but that short with Steve was good enough.
>>83501928

Wait! Holy shit! Is that the guy who tried becoming Harley Quinn's replacement in Batman TAS?!? https://youtu.be/dtmb8sYyorM?t=3m3s
>>83502775
Go to 3 minuets and 3 seconds in, it's totally him.
>>83502775
that's actually Paul Dini
Did the Penguin get to be the featured villain for an episode? I know he cameo'd a lot.
>>83498019
Yes. He's on par with Hamill's Joker.
>>83502899
I dunno about that, its a good joker but Hamil has pretty much become THE Joker
>>83502927
They're incomparable. They're both great for different reasons.
>>83502899
>He's on par with Hamill's Joker.
You should cut your tongue out.
I still think this is the best animated joker.
>>83502899
I love that Bennett voiced four different versions of the Joker.
>>83502984
>>83502969
Why?
>>83503007
>>83503027
I'm a sucker for Golden Age, so I agree
>No one ever complained about the Joker's boner.
>>83502881
He did, he was on that episode where Aquaman tried to go on vacation with his family
>>83503669
Splendid.
>>83503669
He was also in the Scooby Doo one.
>>83503708
Oh shit, that's right, Mystery Inc. crossover. Man, that was the perfect storm.
>>83498586
Same. Just saw Journey to the center of the Bat by chance the other day, it's a 10/10. Aquaman and Atom were absolutely perfect here.
>>83503027
Loved that episode. The "bent, but not broken" part is really well done and show clearly the difference between Red Hood and Joker
>>83503766
>>83502969
While I agree he's great... fuck I DESPISE that design.
>>83503818
Egghead! It would have been great if he got an actual role. Maurice LeMarche does an excellent Vincent Price.

>>83503081
i've always wished for another story where they work together ever since "game over for owlman" and i guess i got it with europa.
batb was utterly perfect, though. this was one of my favorite episodes.
>>83501961
Batfags still struggle to understand that to this day.
>>83500600
>it was still a decent run
52+13 is a full run though, the only way it would have lasted longer is if they relaunched with a different name like Ben 10 does.
>>83507234
It's a shame that nothing ever came of them wanting to do a JLI spinoff, or a movie.
>>83507234
>>83507302
>No Brave and the Bold Flashpoint with
Adam West reprising his role as Thomas Wayne
Why did they do this to me?
>>83501538
>"And here comes Batman!"
>It's Batgirl
I love how completely ridiculous the whole finale was.
>>83502969
I kinda liked this Joker, but he wasn't the best animated one. They wasted Brent on this one.
>>83498019
>Joe Chill confesses to having created Batman
>BatB Joker laughs like a maniac because of how he and everyone else in the room is about to beat Chill to death for creating Batman
Great moment.
Also his inevitable betrayal during the Counter-Earth two-parter was wonderful.
>>83507422
I'm still mad about that Batgirl show not actually being a thing. And that the Batgirl: Year One movie was cancelled. A show starring a young Babs fighting Killer Moth or Firefly as main villains with characters like Poison Ivy or Joker being villains built up to for season finales would be great.
>>83507592
It would be cool if it were like Supergirl in that she's overshadowed by Batman but still tries to stay relevant, with Batman bailing her out if things get too difficult.
>>83503789
Oh God, it still hurts
>>83501054
i laugh at parody sketches but that shouldn't be a whole show, one which means no other show can exist as long as it's on
>>83501414
people who value the silver age are the casuals

Wasted opportunity. Those shitty recolored Batman action figure variants deserve more canon recognition.

It was already a slightly exaggerated version of a real toy.
>>83510922
Ra's al Ghul's armor from the JSA/JLI episode was also based on a B:TAS toy.
>>83507418
I think it ended before Flashpoint.
I still want that COIE musical.
>>83509862
>but that shouldn't be a whole show
And it wasn't, did you somehow miss Chill of the Night?
>>83509862
>people who value the silver age are the casuals
Casuals see Silver Age Batman and laugh it off as "not muh Batman".
Like you're doing.
>>83501253
>Tin even standing before Superman
Truely great
>>83511358
as they should be
Batman started as a noir rip-off of the Shadow
not like the silly stuff of the silver age
Is this on any streaming service or do I have to use something like Streamlord?
>>83512121
If all you do is focus on the very first few issues you miss out on the batmobile, Alfred, Joe Chill, Joker's Red Hood origin, the penny and t-rex and so much more that was introduced during the "zany" years. The reason why Batman has endured and Shadow hasn't is because all of these silly things are in his dna. He's not just a Shadow expy.
>>83502899
I actually agree with you, after a decade of Hamill Joker, it felt nice to hear a different voice
>>83503780
>>83503027
I loved him to, especially the part where he's giving batman clue to where he was being held hostage
>>83503789
Goddammit, don't make me cry man...
>>83512193
It's on Kisscartoon.
What's crazy is that it's basically totally lifted from that one bit from the BTAS episode that also homages TDKR. I mean, I know they're both playing off Silver Age Bats but the designs are almost 1:1
>>83514676
>BTAS episode that also homages TDKR
So who went back in time to script that homage?
>>83498019
>>83514781

Bold Beginnings. Space Ghost is only in the cold open, though.

>>83507302
>tfw no CoIE Musical
>>83517235
It's from an episode where 3 kids tell stories to eachother of times they "saw" Batman, IIRC.
>>83518634
Some seemed OK, but other seemed too kiddy, even for this show.
>>83501054
Silver Age Batman kind of sucked and the show doesn't take a whole lot from it. It does take from other comics' Silver Age issues though, and they were gold.
>>83520106
Thanks.
>>83519298
God bless that time.
