    Finally a Batman show I can watch with my kids (that's good). It's funny, it's awesome to see some different characters, and the animation is stellar.

    I can not believe they ended it. I didn't know they were going to do it until I watched the last episode. I actually pulled a Darth Vader and yelled NOOOOOOOOOO!!!! why get rid of it. It would have added a little ground for parents to let there kids watch DC Nation.

    With Marvel Universe coming out and DC Nation reaching to adults, I will have to watch Marvel.

    It does make since, whenever a parent asked me what comics should he get for his kids I always told him go with Marvel, it's more kid friendly. Do Not let him read Batman, it's not for kids, it's brutal.moreless

    Batman : The Brave and the Bold is an under rated series that died before completing its mission! The powers that be certainly are in league with those who killed the original Star Trek in our universe and the evil people in all other universes!

    While Batman is the lead character, he is the host to introduce us to others who are also brave, bold heroes just like him! The series wasn't just about him and showing these other guys was never "jumping the shark." The series has been exciting and much too short!moreless
  • One of the better batman series

    While Batman: The Animated Series is indubitably the best batman animated series, while The New Batman Adventures comes second to it, Batman: The Brave And Bold has done a pretty decent job in continuing the Batman media franchise. While it is true that the Brave and Bold has unfortunately toned down the darker aspect of Batman, in replacement of the more old-school style along with catchy-like punchlines, it does a successful job in diversifying the episodes by introducing many different super-villains, superheroes, and variety of settings. Unlike Batman: The Animated Series, the settings change from time to time, as well as the kinds of villains Batman struggles against.

    While Batman in the Brave and Bold series is certainly different from the Batman in the Animated Series, the transition is not too dramatically different. Remember that the older batman series (such as the one in 1977) that preceded the Animated Series was far less darker and serious than both the Animated Series and Brave And Bold combined. Batman in the earlier decades was far less darker and serious, and it was when the Animated Series arrived in the 90's that firmly established a standard of what an ideal batman animated series should look like. Frank Miller also helped established the standard of the darker and grimmer batman that most of us are familiar with. Batman: Brave and Bold, in my opinion, still carries a residue of the Batman from the Animated Series (the more serious type that has expresses little sense of humor, laughs a few times) while it tries to re-live and re-make the New Adventures of Batman in a more contemporary way. I believe that while Batman: Brave and Bold has failed to satisfy many fans who expected the darker Batman from the Animated Series, it has certainly succeeded in reliving the New Adventures Series in its contemporary form.

  • Batman the Brave and the Bold is kind of a wierd disapointment. The lines are cheesy and it has more predictable things than most shows similiar to it. The artwork is good though.moreless

    I saw Batman the Brave and the Bold's advertisements and though it was a pretty good idea for a show, it was different, but seemed good. Then when I saw the show I realized how bad it was. Everything was just too weird for example a giant baby thing that wants to kill batman. The artwork is impressive and detailed( Batman though looks to bulgy). They do not show characters from the original comics much. This could of been a good part of the show but all of the villains and heroes in it were like I said too weird.moreless

    A refreshing take on the Batman character i have come to love and admire since i was a wee baby. Classic team-ups DC style with the likes of Aquaman, Blue Beetle, Green Arrow, and The Lantern Corp! When im watching a superhero cartoon i always appreciate the cavalcade of characters, giving me more bang for my buck! The list of super-villians isn't too shabby either! With batman's dry wit and classic "bat-belt" heroics, i recommend this cartoon to anyone with a heartbeat that resonates with the comics of our ages! please feel free to email or send me a message if you would like to discuss this or any superhero/classic cartoon! Stay tuned for more reviews, TRUE BELIEVERS!!!!moreless
