Holy
skyscrapers Batman! The Adventures of
Batman, the original 1977 animated
series comes to DVD for the first time
ever! The 2 Disc collector set features
16 episodes of the Batman, boy-wonder
Robin, Batgirl and Batmite, a
dimensional imp who insists on tagging
along.
The
Adventures of Batman really takes you
back to the origins of animation when
each shot was manipulated to pull
together an action for the characters.
The simple tone and use of color began
with just the basics streamlining into
modern versions of thinner smaller
Batman’s minus the utility belts of
yesterday.
The DVD
extras include:
·
Dark
versus Light – Filmation and the Batman:
With interviews ranging from the
President & Publisher of DC Comics to
the President of Warner Bros, the legacy
of filmation will be examined.
·
Bat-Commentary – An audio commentary
from Filmation historian Michael
Swanigan and Filmation founder Lou
Schiemer on two of the episodes from the
series. The special feature will be
denoted with a selectable button
indicating the respective episode from
which the commentary is derived.
