Batman:the aminated series is one of my favourite shows ever made.It had great opening that didn't even say a title because you knew it was Batman.The program was much more adult-oriented than some previous typical superhero cartoon series. It was the first such cartoon in years to depict firearms being fired instead of laser guns.It didn't treat it's viewer like kids it didn't have to dumb it's self down.The series received critical acclaim for its distinctive animation and mature writing. Fans of a wide age range praised the show's sophisticated, cinematic tone and psychological stories.It added new characters Like Harley Quinn, Renee Montoya and Lock-up who got put into comics.They made Characters like Mr.freeze,Clayface and two-face better characters.With the help of the series, the character of Mr. Freeze was turned around from a clichéd mad scientist with a gimmick for cold to a tragic figure whose frigid exterior hides a doomed love and vindictive fury.This is my version of Batman i like most and now i shall start my Top 30 countdown and so you know this wasn't an easy list to make.
