Remind us why it's good; then make it better

These DVDs are the only ridiculously overpriced cartoon series I would purchase (or ask for as gifts) before marketers came to their senses and realized almost no season of anything should be worth more than 15 to 20 dollars.
The guys who made this bothered to read Batman books. Old ones. New ones. Good ones. Dorky ones. Then they thought about what made it cool. They borrowed all the fun parts of the first Tim Burton movie, then made one of the first multi-emmy winning cartoons ever. Now that they had made Batman cool again, they didn't stop. Filming each episode like a mini-movie (as they describe in excellent commentaries), they decide to dig up old DC comics characters, like Zatarra, the Grey Ghost (voiced by Adam West), and the Creeper, and then they create new characters that fit so well into the cannon that they get spin-offs, like Bullock, Montoya, and of course Harley Quinn. But the best part is probably how they manage to take dopey things, like Robin, who never really made sense as a side kick (let's dress a kid in bright red and name him after a bird) and manage to make it serious and cool.
This set and each of the other three are excellent. The extras are fine, commentaries most of all, but these guys went on to make Batman Beyond, and then Justice League, again taking strange and semi-unknown characters (Martian Manhunter and the Atom for example) and making them very cool. I can't recommend it enough if you haven't seen them, and if you have, you'll want to keep them.
Almost every episode is excellent |
