Completing the trilogy of seasons, Warner Archive has released season three of Batman: The take on as well as the strong on Blu-ray.
This final season only had 13 episodes, contained right here on one Blu-ray disc, however there are some genuine gems, with numerous influenced by well-known comic stories or nostalgia for a specific style of storytelling. The season begins with “Joker: The Vile as well as the Villainous!”, an episode from the villain’s point of view as he teams up with his inspiration, the golden Age villain the Weeper (voiced by Tim Conway).
“Shadow of the Bat!” is a “what if” where Batman becomes a vampire as well as takes out the Justice League, worldwide version, with Fire, Ice, Martian Manhunter, Aquaman, Booster Gold, as well as Blue Beetle (the youngster one). Each episode has an opening teaser with a different adventure; this begins with the Jungle Batman handling Catwoman as well as her panther. who would have believed we’d ever see that on TV?
“Night of the Batmen!” has Aquaman, Captain Marvel, eco-friendly Arrow, as well as Plastic guy impersonating the hero when he’s in the hospital. In “Battle of the Superheroes!”, a like letter to Silver Age Superman stories, Batman has to defeat a red Kryptonite-infected Superman. There’s likewise a whole lot of strange Jimmy Olsen transformations.
“Time Out for Vengeance!” gos to Batman throughout history, with Cave Batman, Pirate Batman, Batmanicus, as well as Robot Batman. The opening for “Triumvirate of Terror!” evokes those goofy unusual sports stories as the JLI plays baseball against the legion of Doom. “Bold Beginnings!” has Aquaman, eco-friendly Arrow, as well as Plastic guy reminiscing about when they very first dealt with Batman.
“Crisis: 22,300 Miles above Earth!” keeps in mind what utilized to be a yearly tradition: the Justice league satisfying the Justice society of America. The JLI holds the JSA at a celebration in their satellite, however the teams don’t get along in addition to planned. “Four star Spectacular!” evokes an old anthology comic, with separate stories for Adam Strange, the Flash, the creature Commandos, as well as (believe it or not) ‘Mazing Man.
Other guest-stars include Kamandi, Etrigan, a singing Vigilante (performing “The Ballad of Batman”), question Woman, eco-friendly lantern (in “Scorn of the star Sapphire!”), The Creeper, the Atom (two versions in “Sword of the Atom!”), Captain Atom (in “Powerless!”), as well as area Ghost (!).
Batman: The take on as well as the strong ends with “Mitefall!”, with Bat-Mite complaining about exactly how the show has jumped the shark as well as trying to get it cancelled. He complains about repetitive plots as well as required catch phrases as well as muses over the dispute between dark as well as campy Batman. The episode is full of meta-humor about fandom overreaction as well as TV trends, like forcing a adorable youngster onto a long-running show as well as utilizing new costumes as well as gadgets just for toy business tie-ins.
The animation is beautiful on Blu-ray, with atmospheric art, expressionistic effects, as well as evocative styles in keeping with a range of source material. I’m sorry to see it go. Batman: The take on as well as the strong is a animation that’s fun for all ages on a range of levels.
Note that the material of the disc doesn’t match the previous DVD release. This Blu-ray set has “The battle of the Superheroes!”, which appeared on the season 2 DVD set instead of the season 3 DVD, as well as it doesn’t have “The Mask of matches Malone!”, which is on the season 2 Blu-ray set. All the episodes are covered if you get all DVDs or all Blu-rays, however you can’t mix as well as match. (The studio offered a evaluation copy.)
