Today’s The Batman (Episode 12) pleased me very much. It had action, humor, and some good friendship vibes (even slash was skipping around there). ;)

The disappearance of Superman, Green Lantern, Flash, the Martian Manhunter and Hawkman leave Batman and Green Arrow the only Leaguers left to find out what happened to their comrades.  Their lack of ( Read more... )

The Batman (Episode 11) (February 16, 2008) LSH was a repeat.

The Batman was fun today.  Hawkman was the JLA guest star, and he and the Dynamic Duo battled Black Mask and the Shadow Thief.  Robin was a star in this as he was sprayed with elements of the nth element that gives Hawkman his flying power and strength.  Robin was off to the moon but ( Read more... )

The Batman (Episode 10) (February 9, 2008) LSH was a repeat.

Today’s The Batman was interesting because of the mirror image theme: a rich buddy of Bruce’s and his kid brother were stalking the streets of Gotham to make them safe…for criminals.

Bruce and Dick get to enjoy some time off in their civilian identities, hanging out with that rich buddy ( Read more... )

The Batman (Episode 9) (February 2, 2008) LSH was a repeat.

I’ll admit that I was a little puzzled by this episode.  The credits include Dick but he’s nowhere to be found in this episode, and not even mentioned!  Barbara is Bruce’s partner throughout this story, and all of a sudden she’s started college!

I find that a little odd, too, considering ( Read more... )

The Batman (Episode 8) (December 15, 2007) LSH was a repeat.

I was pleased to see Dick’s importance in this episode.  He was using a character called Nightwing in his video game!  Fancy that!  ;)  I also liked Bruce’s smile when Dick told him about the character.  Could he have already heard that legend from Superman?

Was anyone else amused that ( Read more... )

The Batman (Episode 7) (December 8, 2007) LSH was a repeat.

Poor Dick!  He gets picked up from school by Alfred in the limousine, cutting into some hoops time with his friends.  There is this big charity ball that he and Bruce are hosting at the Manor…

He’s all mopey until he learns that Green Lantern is visiting!  J

Dick fanboys Green Lantern, who ( Read more... )

Legion of Super Heroes (Episode 6), The Batman (Episode 5) (November 3, 2007)

What stood out for me about LSH today? How Clark was so clearly the moral center (not moralist, as the fundies and family values phonies yap about) of the hero world. His goodness and decency helped turn around a villainous type, and his concern and anger over what ( Read more... )

 Legion of Super Heroes (Episode 5), The Batman (Episode 3--Repeat) (October 27, 2007)

The WB tripped us up this week!  They repeated the Green Arrow episode of The Batman, but gave us a new episode of the Legion.  And next week both will be new, with the Flash as the guest star in Gotham!  J

Ollie was so impressed by Bruce’s set-up, wouldn’t it be ( Read more... )

 Legion Of Super Heroes, The Batman (Episode 4) (October 13, 2007)

Brainy still has it bad for ‘our’ Clark.  ;)  He was dissing Shrinking Violet since she was taking the place of Superman during the latest mission.  He learned, poor boy, he learned!  J

Kell-El grows on you.  He’s all tough and “You’re not crying, are you?” but he was moved by the ( Read more... )

Legion of Super Heroes, The Batman (Episode 3) (October 6, 2007)

Good episodes today.  In LSH, Timberwolf is accused of murdering his father, the man who made him half-man, half-animal, and the Legion sentences him to prison for life due to the overwhelming evidence.  Except that Phantom Girl and Chameleon Boy don’t go along with the program, and ( Read more... )
