The best animated Batman series by far. Stays true to the feel of comics without alienating non-comic fans. It is made for a younger audience and as a result the themes are toned done, but it is done in away that doesn't harm the integrity and complexity of the brilliantly formed characters of the franchise. Other Batman animated ventures come off to campy (1970s "Super Friends") or are watered down, babied even (modern day "Batman: The Bold and the Brave.")
22min isn't a lot of time to tell a Batman story which tend to be more intricate then other superhero smash and punch-athons so the series paint with broader strokes then the comics but that is to be expected. Never does it sacrifice story to conform to the constants of what was (lets be honest here) a childrens show.
Of course I'm biased, I watch the series every day in my formative years and to those of you like me, yes, it is as good as you remember. Also for the fans of the series there is some nice bonus features. It isn't chalk full of extras but each volume has selected episodes with commentary and mini doc-featurettes.
Great for the nostalgia seeker, the Batman fan, or the parent looking for a smarter hero cartoon for your kids. Five stars isn't enough.

Batman and Robin battle the Joker (Jack Napier), TWO-FACE(Harvey Dent), Riddler (Edward Nygma), and the rest of the jerks, losers, criminals, etc. Batman and Robin won't give up, until every single lunatic, sadistic monster, are off the streets, of Gotham City!!! Billionaire Bruce Wayne, CEO of Wayne Enterprises, is also battling the crooks, and destroying them!!!!

Yup, Batman is back. This is the second collection of the Batman animated Series by Warner Brothers, in its entirity. It is among the most rewarded and praised animation ever put to film and portrays the Dark knight as very few have dared to imagine. This second series introduces Dick Grayson (a.k.a Robin) into the saga, as Batman and the Boy Wonder are introduced to some of Batmans' more challanging enemies, as well as run ins with his those returning from Series 1. Whilst I am biast to this series for many reasons, it is possible to pick this series up regardless of having seen the first and enjoy 4 discs of Batman animation at its best, it featured world class animation, well crafted story lines and cleaverly compiled scripts, as well as dialogue that makes each character believable and shows a level of background research and dedication that makes this series the spectacle it is. It also features a special feature on each disc which goes into the background of the series.
I fully recommend this product to those people who are fan and not fan alike. If you appreciate animation this series is a must for you.
