What was your impression when you saw B:TAS back in 1992?

This thread reminds me of people over-reacting due to someone's opinion being different to theirs, and their misinterpretation of a joke.

Dunno why.

When it comes to Batman, I know (and care) very little. I have seen them and stuff, but I'm no fan.

I find it HIGHLY Ironic that someone named Harle-quin is in this thread, and not a big batman fan. After all, the most popular Batman: TAS character (originally created by the writing team for that show that is) was Harley Quinn, the jokers lover and right hand woman, as well as comic relief and object of abuse.

Look up the word "Harlequin". You'll find that Harley Quinn's name, as well as mine, was taken from that.

that I'm aware of. and it's still Ironic. First time I saw the name of the poster I thought "wooboy, here we go. A huge Batman TAS (since thats where she got her start) fan has chimed in."

Batman sucks. He doesn't even have superpowers. Spiderman is better.

Oh yeah. I went there.

Spider-Man sucks because there hasn't been a decent Spider-Man film yet Peter Parker is supposed to become more self-confident and somewhat of a smart-ass after he gets bitten by a radioactive spider. But Peter doesn't become more self-confident until the third movie and most of this is brought on by the symbiote....Sam Raimi was influenced by the Superman films too much. Spider-Man: The Animated Series sucks too because the animation in that show was absolutely horrible.

Bob Kane wanted Batman to be a normal guy who can be hurt because an ordinary guy with gadgets is more relatable than a practically indestructible demi-god who can lift Kryptonite mountains and push planets out of orbit.

Uh, who cares if the character is a normal guy who can be hurt? That just makes him that much less of a 'superhero' and more like a 'rich guy with fancy gadgets'.

Spiderman could annihilate Batman anyday.

Batman is able to hold his own against superman and other superpowered members of the Justice league because of his incredible mind. he has been dubbed the worlds greatest detective. He's the brains, which is backed up by one of the most highly conditioned and trained physical bodies on the planet. This is one of the reasons why Batman TAS was so popular as the standout episodes have batman saving the day with intelligence and sheer admirable skill.

and can we please cease and desist with the "superhero X could kick Superhero y's butt" statements. If this thread isn't dead cuz of those derailments in topics then it's bloody well receiving it's last rites right now because of it.

Don't double post plz. - Azar
