What makes Batman: The Animated Series so great? Co-creators Bruce Timm and Eric Radmoski led an array of artists to reimagine Batman in an Art Deco-inspired Gotham City. The noir stories told by writers Paul Dini and Alan Burnett didn’t talk down to young fans munching on sugary cereals. And its legacy, including the creation of enduring characters like Harley Quinn, forever changed the DC multiverse. The list is as long as the Joker’s rap sheet All of this to say that with such outstanding quality, ranking all 109 episodes of BTAS and its continuation The New Batman Adventures is quite the challenge, but when Inverse offered me the opportunity, I couldn’t say no. You might be asking, “Why this guy? What does he know?” Rest assured, my knowledge of Batman runs deep. I run the @SaturdayMorningBatman account on Instagram that dives into episodes and movies of Batman in animation, and I’ve been reading the comics since the ‘90s.
