BRBTV presents a feature article about the popular 1990s "Batman: The Animated Series," along with a detailed episode guide!

Warner Bros. created a whole new Bat-phenomenon when they launched “Batman: The Animated Series” in September 1992. Riding the wake of the popularity of the 1989 Michael Keaton big-screen movie, the animated series gave us a Batman who was dark, brooding and strong, always remembering the pain that created him. This was a Batman we could truly believe in. This was a Gotham City that was always night. And this was a Rogues Gallery of villains who found new life on the small screen: Besides colorful mainstays like Joker and Penguin, there were demented dames like Poison Ivy, springing from obscurity in the comics realm, and Harley Quinn, crafted just for this series, then crossing over to the comics realm. All in all, “Batman: The Animated Series” has had a huge, fabulous impact on the Bat-world, and this Short celebrates that, with background and premise, episode guide and cast list.
