Batman The Animated Series Volume One DVD

Batman-The Animated Series, Volume One.......
By blackaciddevil (in the USA somewhere.....)

Inspired by the old Fleischer Superman cartoons and Tim Burton's 1989 Batman film, Batman-The Animated Series won two Emmy Awards during the length of its' run on TV. Much more adult-oriented in it's content and whatnot, it appealed to both kids and adults & is widely considered the 'best' and closest adaptation of the original Batman series published by DC Comics. This series alone spawned many other series for DC such as Superman-the Animated series, The Batman-Superman Adventures, Batman Beyond, Static Shock, The Batman, Justice League, Justice League Unlimited and the flash animated Internet only Gotham Girls. In this collection; Batman faces off against The Joker, The Penguin, Mr. Freeze, Catwoman, and other assorted baddies. In it's extras, Bruce Timm & Eric Radomski tell how they created the series & show their pilot for the show(which isn't all that long). The pilot's content is alot more violent. I agree, if the series had took this route- the series would have been much more exciting. Still, BTAS is a great series. These first episodes are outstanding & stand the test of time.

Pick up this as well as the rest of the series, which includes Batgirl, Robin, Nightwing, and the NEW Robin. You'll be glad you did.
