10 Episodes Of Batman The Animated Series That Still Hold Up 28 Years Later

Some of the best Batman: The Animated Series episodes have become even more special three decades after the instant-classic show premiered. Following the success of Tim Burton’s Batman (1989), Warner Bros. commissioned a Batman animated series to be released alongside Batman Returns as part of a brand-synergy strategy for the sequel’s release. While Batman: The Animated Series was inspired by Burton’s Batman on some level, the show was set in its own continuity and had a different creative team. From accurate takes on Batman characters to new interpretations of the Dark Knight’s mythos, Batman: TAS had dozens of incredible episodes.
