Batman: Mask of the Phantasm (1993)
Bruce Timm’s animated Batverse is for many people the defining adaptation of the character, and this week we’re here to tell you why. We’re going deep on THE ANIMATED SERIES over on our Patreon show (link below!) but here on the main feed it’s all about the original villain, The Phantasm, and how she helped inspire a tormented Bruce Wayne to leave his personal life behind for a life in vigilantism. Also…Abe Vigoda? A young, creepy Joker?! The Phantasm’s return in JUSTICE LEAGUE UNLIMITED: EPILOGUE? We are in Batman heaven this week.
