Batman is probably the most popular character of a superhero today, and is by no means because of the portraits of the character screen. More than any other superhero (except perhaps Spider-Man), Batman has the best superhero movies of all timeAnd even very bad ones do some interesting things. Then there is the influence Batman had on television, not only in the huge influential TV show in the 60's, but in the animation. Although there were many superhero cartoons before, "Batman: the animated series" changed the game forever, not only affecting the animated superhero shows for the next three decades, but even comics in Batman.

Every show in Batman, which came after suffering from comparisons with a masterpiece of Bruce Tim, not getting a fair shot from the audience - even if every cartoon after it still did some interesting things with the character. Whether In the best animated films in BatmanWhere we saw some of the best comic books tailored to the screen, as well as some amazing original stories, or on television, where each series had a unique visual style. There is aesthetics of Batman's cyberpunk, the focus of Batman's military skills, the beautiful camp and humor of "Batman: Brave and Bold", and the recent nasty Nor-inspired "Batman: Capenic Crusade".

But there is another Batman cartoon that even many hardcore DC fans forget - the one who was abused when it came out, but is actually an underestimated and worthy portrait of the dark knight. That play is "Beware of Batman".

Developed by Glenn Murakami (the creator of the great "Titanese teenagers"), "Beware of Batman" was a return to a more serious tone for the character of the comic "Brave and Bold", as well as the visual departure for Batman, as the cartoon was 3D ( Similarly the underestimated "Green Lantern: Animated Series"). These two things were greeted with heavy criticism from fans before the show began, attracting unfair comparisons to the "animated series".

And yet, there is a lot to like it about "beware of Batman". The show has a greater focus on detective work than previous cartoons, as it has been set in the early years of Bruce Wayne's career as Batman (becoming more similar to Matt Reeves's "Batman"), with a special focus on organized crime and lesser -known villains. Indeed, the biggest strength of this show was how it gave it to the spotlight of villains such as "Hamppy Damps", "Maggie", "Cyprus", "Silver Monkey" and "Anarki" (which brought timely policy into the show). It also featured the martial arts section of the Batman Rogus Gallery - like Deathstroke, Katana and Lady Shiva - which gave the series a special tone and vibration that was different from previous Batman films.

The best part of "Beware of Batman" is how the show brought elements of outsiders to play a recurrent role, or - most importantly - to have Katana to be sideways to Batman than any of the many slaves. That is, Katana acts as Batman's main companion, here as his godfather. It shows how much the character's diversity and its myths that we can have different sides with different Batman dynamics. Oh, and this show also shows Alfred as a former secret agent who rules.

Unfortunately, even if the show continues to have fans, she didn't find her audience while she was in the air. Just three months after its premiere, the cartoon withdrew "Beware of Batman" from his schedule without explanation, transmitting the remaining episodes in the toonami swimming program block - exactly when children watch television. However, the show is now fully available at HBO Max where it finds a new audience.
