I concur. And I'll take it further than that. It seems to me that BTAS was a Prime Time quality show in the early 90's, on par with the best adult TV shows after 8pm on Weeknights that were produced...

Since this is a general forum, I thought I'd pose this question here:

Was having a conversation with my friend on superhero history and the evolution of superhero costumes. We were talking about...

^^^^^^^^^^^this^^^^^^^^

Is anyone else surprised, annoyed, bitter or conscious of the idea that Superman's status as "The Greatest of the Superheroes" seems to be slipping? With the ascendance of Marvel at the movies,...

I've always felt that the superhero has never been represented very well in major films since Dick Donner's 1978 "vision" of Superman. That film was very faithful to what Superman was through the...

I agree with you about such odd standards... I don't think the standards that you describe are necessary for any supervillain of any superhero. Any superhero from Superman and Batman to Iron Man,...

Having just watched the 3 hr version of Superman: The Movie, I was struck by how good Reeve looked.
Why Don't Any Superhero movies feature comic accurate costumes for their characters?

Superman:...

JOHN BYRNE and MARV WOLFMAN created the corporate tycoon version of Lex Luthor. Donald Trump was the main inspiration. Satan (the Judeo-Christian antagonist) was the other! I have always had a...

IF Wolfman had been in charge with the people who did BTAS perhaps under him, I think this could have been great. I dunno why, but I get the feeling Wolfman by himself wouldnt have been enough....

I think they did a lot right. I thought the tone was perfect... but I think, as they did with BTAS, they should have attempted to make it more timeless. How? I'm not completely sure.

The art...

I have always found it weird that... since BTAS is so revered by millions of cartoon fans and comics fans, why the 70's era it was based on has been under-represented in trade collections or reprints.

I just think that, when you have a director that proves to be style over substance... again and again... he shouldnt be taken seriously and he shouldnt be given these kinds of projects... BUT we're...

YES! The New Batman Adventures does count

Most fans agree that Superman: The Animated Series was not as good as the Batman: TAS show.
What, if anything, would you do to change it, improve it or make it ring as true to Superman as BTAS was...

Title says it all... What do you not like and what would you change?

My thoughts on Snyder have always been... like Tim Burton and other visual directors... he doesnt care about source material and simply wants to push his vision... That said, when a studio mandates...

How do you feel about the Knightfall saga?

My point about Gotham looking like Burton but now looking different stands... What I meant tho was that, even in the 70's, Gotham looked trashy, dingy, "gothic" and then Burton took it over the top...

I would like a list... yes... for as many characters as you can give me, please! I mean, I'm no novice collector but I just wanna make sure I'm not missing anything! Thanks so much!

This may not be possible, as collecting is subjective BUT...

Have any of you or has anyone you know ever attempted to collect every major storyline of every major character (Example: the best of...

In my headcanon, Batman isnt a jerk. I dont read stories where he is an @$$hole. If Batman doesnt smile sometimes, he's not MY Batman! Paul Dini's Detective is the last Batman I read. The further...

I would probably create a mix of my own headcanon, a more consistent/cohesive version of the mythology. I think if I had control... I would write a Bruce Wayne that is from the 70's and his Batman...

Am I wrong that the Batman from the first 65 years of his history is not the same Batman once Morrison took over? It seems that Morrison's Gothic, JLA and Arkham: Serious House Batman is pretty much...

I was raised in the 90's but I must say, what I have gleaned of Amazing Friends... it's a great show! I may only be 35 but I skew much older... I like older comics (70's, 80's and early 90's best),...

Post 1964 tho, the New Look era came in and... Infantino's art improved the books... then later in the decade, the stories started their trajectory toward modern Batman under Frank Robbins and later...
