Batman cartoons

[scary harpy]

I have a question about Batman cartoons and I hope someone knows an answer.

To be clear, I am not talking about the animated moves like Batman: Hush or Batman: Bad Blood or Batman: Under the Red Hood. These are clearly designed for more mature audiences.

I am talking about:

• The Batman
• Batman: the Brave and the Bold
• Beware the Batman

I'll even include the Batman Unlimited cartoon movies and web shorts - since they were designed for a younger audiences.

My question: Anyone have any news about a new Batman cartoon in the works?

It feels like such a long time since we've had one.

thanks.

No, but if you are looking for at least something with some "Batman Characters", as much as I don't care for its reboot and that they should have kept the original for as long as they could, there is DC Superhero Girls.

Not so long ago also, Justice League Action.

Fun fact: Justice League Action began as them pitching another Batman cartoon until an executive shifted them into doing a Justice League cartoon to tie-in to the movie.

Although word of warning: DCSHG has fun takes on Batgirl and the female Bat-Villains, but quite possibly the worst take on Robin I have ever seen.

We almost had a No Man's Land cartoon

Thanks to all who responded.

I figured if anyone had heard a rumor then that person probably posted on this board.

If no one heard anything, then it most probably doesn't exist.

Maybe they will turn Justice League Action back into a Batman cartoon. (I hope.)

I don't understand why we don't have another one right now. They have a whole platform and he's still selling like hot cakes.

Eh, the Lego DC Super Heroes line of DTVs is the closest you'll get. I like the last one pretty good, Batman: Family Matters. There's only been one of those movies this year, but there's usually two or three a year, and Batman is in all of them in some capacity.

There's Young Justice, not a Batman show but he appears and Nightwing is a main character.

Upcoming Harley Quinn cartoon obviously has some Bat-connections, and he'll probably appear in it in some capacity.

Outside of that, there's always some random DTVs every year. Batman vs the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (pg 13, but kinda light pg 13 and you know parents let the little ones see it anyways cause Turtles), Scooby-Doo meets Batman: the Brave and the Bold, Batman Ninja (can't remember the rating on that one, but I can't remember anything I wouldn't let a kid watch...).

Then there's the regular line of DTVs with at least one Batman one every year. All pg 13 (with one or two R's sprinkled into the mix), but still...

There's a lot of stuff with Batman in it, either as a main or minor characters, but no regular Batman series in the works that any of us know of no. But it is only a matter of time.
Preferably after a change in Cartoon Network so they can't actively try to kill it again.

I have to admit that I wasn't a fan of the style of BEWARE THE BATMAN when I first saw the initial artwork. However, I was pleasantly surprised with how good the show was and I was really bummed that it didn't get renewed. It was different, but it was really good!! It was a refreshing take on Batman, focusing on characters that had never been done before on tv. I also liked the different version of Alfred on the show. He was awesome!

This was pretty smart of them... Listen, BTAS is quite the hard act to follow, so it was probably best to focus on re imagining baddies that BTAS wouldn't touch (or may not have existed). I really enjoyed Magpie and wish they took some more of her attributes from the show into comics (she would make a wonderful foil to Catwoman...Margaret is crazy to Selina's sane, Magpie finds herself in love with Batman and wants to eliminate his female partner so they could be together, etc). I wrote off Beware the Batman at first, but definitely became a fan.

I didn't really dig their take on Anarky though.

I saw the movie. It was alright. No fan of Legos.

I know it's only a matter of time. I'm just tired of waiting.

I enjoyed Magpie too.

Loved their take on Pig and Toad.

I wish we'd seen King Kraken.

It's not for every adult yeah, but I've been pleasantly surprised so far with the general quality of the Lego DC movies. To each their own.

And I get that waiting sucks, but there's enough Batman coming in the various DTV lines that even without a series it is hardly a drought for Batman in terms of animation.
And look at other fandoms - the first and only GL toon to date was tanked by low toy sales of the live action movie. The movie tanked the cartoon! And everyone liked the toon.
Wonder Woman has never had a series, and is only now this year getting a second animated DTV of her own after a decade since the last, despite her live action movie doing so very well.
Superman's gotten some DTVs true, only second to Batman, but his last series was all the way back in the early/mid 00's with Superman and the Legion of Superheroes or whatever the exact title was.

We're pretty spoiled as far as fandoms go. We know we're getting another series. How many other DC characters can say the same? Pretty much most other DC fans root for Justice League cartoons because that's about the only way their characters will get on a series.
