    They have all the right people involved, which is great.

    But seeing a lot of Bruce Jaw, compared to the 90s Batman Animated Series (BAS) where it was just Batman’s silhouette.

    Hoping it follows the path of BAS, which was a show about the villains, not the Bat.

    I’m looking forward to this as I loved TAS (but not the later series with Robin, I prefer Batman working alone). Batman Beyond (or Batman of the Future depending on where you live in the world) was also great, so another animated series is very welcome.

    I just powered through all 10 episodes, there’s an awful lot to like here.

    There are hints at a larger D.C. Universe, Eel O’Brien shows up as a newspaper photographer, that’s the character who would become Plastic Man in the comics.

    Jim Corrigan shows up in his pre-death Detective format, before becoming the Spectre.

    We don’t get a John Constantine or Zatanna/Zatara, but Papa Midnite is present and accounted for.

    The Green Arrow villain Onomatopoeia pops up in one episode, which was fun to see.

    At one point, there are orphans introduced in Robin order… Dickie, Jason, Stephanie and Carrie.
