Like many children who grew up in the '90s, "Batman: The Animated Series" was formative when it came to shaping my Batman sensibilities. It helped me realize that the character of Batman, and his world, are better suited for longform storytelling, and - because of that - it is still the definitive take on The Dark Knight and his Rogues to date. From that thought arose the idea of designing figures based on some of DC’s most beloved characters that had never appeared on the animated series or utilizing popular characters that had been created after the show had aired.

Is this just a nostalgia grab aimed at almost-middle-aged dudes who grew up watching the series? Eh, probably. Does it feel good to jump down that rabbit hole remembering what it was like watching these adventures after school? Sure does. This really does feel like a continuation of Batman: The Animated Series thanks in no small part to Paul Dini and Alan Burnett, who were both integral to the show. There are a few ongoing story-lines as well as a couple of stand-alones, so it works nicely. Jason Todd is revealed to have been the second Robin all along and meets a similar fate to his original counterpart in being beaten half to death and then blown up by the Joker, believed to be dead, only to show up later as the Red Hood.
