This third TV series of Batman is highly imaginative -- an important contribution to animated art! Rates triple A+++++. |

Biased Batman fan...Loved it! |
|
Yeah, I pretty much like anything Batman. However, this series was well done, from the music to the villians. I was excited (as were my kids) when a fifth season was released. |

Fun, but lacking |
The 5th (and final) season of KidsWB's "The Batman" takes a "Brave and the Bold" approach as Batman teams up with Superman, Green Lantern, Flash, and other heroes from the expanded DC Universe. Also featured this season are villains like Shadow Thief, Sinestro, and Lex Luthor.
If you're a comics fan, there's always a decent thrill in seeing characters cross over and interact, and for that alone this set is worth a purchase. But objectively, it's not really one of The Batman's better seasons. The animation is nowhere near as kinetic and thrilling as in the early seasons, and the writing isn't as strong as season 4, arguably the best season of the series. Really, the superhero guest spots fall into a predictable formula: Hero X comes to Gotham to help Batman defeat villain Y from Hero X's rogues gallery. Rinse and repeat. The two best stories of the season are the two that stick to the classic Bat-family: one involving Firefly turning into Phosphorous, the other involving an anti-Batman and Robin team.
Again it's absolutely awesome to see lesser-used characters like Hawkman appear in a Batman series, but it feels like so much more could've been done with this season. With 13 episodes and some brief bonus features "The Batman: The Complete Fifth Season" is a worthwhile addition to your Batman library, just be aware that the premise of superhero team-ups is ultimately better than the actual execution. |

The Batman- The Complete Fifth and Final Season....... |
The Fifth and Final Season of The Batman is more of a team-up season. Batgirl and Commissioner Gordon only show up in cameos this season & Firefly becomes Phosphorus. The Joining, who was in the fourth seasons' finale, makes a return in this seasons' finale(which is over 40 minutes long). Batman teams up with the likes of Superman, Green Lantern, The Flash, Hawkman, Green Arrow, Martian Manhunter &, in the season finale, the entire Justice League. He squares off against the likes of Lex Luthor, Metallo, Mercy Graves, Count Vertigo, Wrath, Toyman, Sinestro, Shadow Thief, Mirror Master and the Terrible Trio. Vocal talents were provided by Rino Romano, Evan Sabara, Danielle Judovits, Alastair Duncan, Mitch Pileggi, Dorian Harewood, Dermot Mulroney, Robert Patrick, Chris Hardwick, Charlie Schlatter and George Newbern. It's a shame that this season is the shows' last. With every season bought, I got to liking it more and more. This season is, perhaps, the best out of them all. I suggest you collect them all while the getting is good.
Meanwhile, next year-look for a new Batman animated series to debut on Cartoon Network called Batman: The Brave & The Bold. It will see Batman team-up with several other DC Comics heroes during the season such as Aquaman, Blue Beetle, Green Arrow, Red Tornado and Plastic Man(just to name a few). The series is being produced by Ben Jones, Brandon Vietti and Michael Chang. |
