plot:

five stories about batman told in five defferent ways.


pros: they used the voice of kevin conroy who did batman's voice for the justice league and batman series and all the animated movies except the new incarnation of the show.

interlocking stories, all the stories take place in the same universe and each one leads into the next in some way or another.

good art.

lots of action

the deflecting sheild is the ****(won't spoil that one.)
cons:

stories are not to in depth

fluctuating art work(some of it is really ****ty)

and and they made bruce wayne look nothing like bruce wayne.

some of the stories flat out suck and are boring


won't giveaway too much but check out its fun. they have the illegal downlaod out but i'd advice to get the dvd some pretty cool extras on it. alright guys.

Man I can't wait to get this tomorrow, or hopefully today! That's cool that they have Kevin Conroy doing the voice. It just wouldn't be a Batman cartoon without him. IS this pretty violent Doug? I heard it is based off a graphic novel or something like that (I have no idea what I'm talking about with comic book type stuff:p).

[doug maverick]

its kinda violent. one of the partners in my company runs a comic book convention hear in new york city. so he always gets all this comci book ****. movie tickets dvds you name it.
