Once again I find myself in a difficult position, unsure of how to introduce this book. Because really, something like The Batman and Robin Adventures Omnibus hardly needs an introduction. You know what this is. You want this. Heck, you’ve probably already picked up your own copy at this point. And the purpose of a…
One of the list relics of a bygone era is the comic book adaptation timed to the release of a film. Yes, there are still comics based on movies, but used to be you could go into a drug store or gas station and pick up a bonafide issue of, like, a James Bond movie,…
Batman: The Animated Series continues to be a pop culture juggernaut, even thirty years after its debut. While there are countless other interpretations of the Dark Knight, the landmark cartoon has seen no end of merchandise over the years, with companies like Mondo scratching the itch for great Animated Series collectibles. We here at Batman…
Any time I write about Batman: The Animated Series, it gets harder and harder to come up with something to say. I touched on this in my review of The Batman Adventures Omnibus, in that while I could talk all day, every day about this series, so much has been said and written about this…
Ranking the Best and Worst of the Batman Mission Masters and Spectrum of the Bat Action Figure Lines
If nothing else, the existence of these Batman Mission Masters and Spectrum of the Bat toylines show just how many wild, crazy, random ideas were slapped onto action figures of the Dark Knight. So many colors, so many Noun Verb naming variations, so many pegwarmers. That's all part of the fun and charm, though, in…
Batman: The Animated Series was a revolutionary series when it debuted, and it has more than stood the test of time three decades on. Its followup, The New Batman Adventures, was a more somber, serious affair, one that I absolutely adored when I was a kid. As time has gone on, my appreciation for it…
Batman: The Animated Series not only changed cartoons, but the public perception of Batman on general. Much like the 1989 Batman film, it showed what could really be done with the character in less (purposefully, anyway) campy stories, yet the show went even further by distilling everything great about Batman and his world into a…
Over the years, and even as recently as a few months ago, I've written so, so many words about how much I love Batman: The Animated Series. I don't need to tell you that any more, nor do I need to tell you about it either, because you know. It's BTAS. We all know it.…

Known for his large stature and booming voice, the 6’8” actor achieved fame as the kindhearted bailiff “Bull” Shannon on the sitcom Night Court. Moll was a series regular for all nine seasons of the show, and also had parts in multiple television series…
After over thirty years, countless words have been written about Batman: The Animated Series, be it in regards to its quality, influence, or timelessness. The show can still be appreciated today, with hardly a truly dated aspect in sight, and the spinoff comics are the same way. I alone have written hundreds if not thousands…

Sorkin began her career as a part of various comedy troupes before finding work on television, notably as Calliope Jones on the long-running daytime soap opera Days of Our Lives. In addition to acting, she wrote for series such as Tiny Toon Adventures, and was co-host of…

Reaves was a celebrated author and TV writer, having created numerous acclaimed works. He is…
It's hard to write an opening for something related to Batman: The Animated Series, because everyone knows it, everyone loves it, and I can only share my own personal anecdotes so many times before I become "repetitive" or something. I don't know. Anyway, McFarlane have a bunch of great action figures, and have started producing…
We're sad to report that actor David Warner has passed away. Warner was a veteran of stage and screen, with a career that spanned the better part of seven decades. With an instantly recognizable voice, Warner immortalized the character of Ra's al Ghul with generations of fans, as his Annie Award-nominated performance on Batman: The…

If so, have you been longing for a return to that world, with moves like Justice League vs. the Fatal Five and comic series like Batman: The Adventures Continue…
From a pure nostalgia standpoint, Batman: The Adventures Continue is one of my favorite Batman comics in years. I mean, you have Batman: The Animated Series creators Paul Dini and Alan Burnett writing a pitch-perfect continuation of the classic television show, with spot-on art from comics vet Ty Templeton and colorist Monica Kubina. It was…
