Batman: The Animated Series is still one of the most beloved and talked about adaptations of Batman and his world. Since the first episode aired in 1992 and the final episode aired in 1999, the cartoon world has lived on and endured in the hearts and minds of its fanbase.
There is also the added bonus of Kevin Conroy’s sterling performance of the Dark Knight (alongside other cast members’ work) carrying over into other related programming, including Batman Beyond, Justice League and Justice League Unlimited.
Now fans of BTAS and the canon Batman comics are having a question answered that has been on everyone’s minds for years. Does Jason Todd, the second Robin and gun-toting vigilante Red Hood, exist in the animated universe?
The answer is yes. But wait . . . there is a twist–and it’s one that no one saw coming.
