The new characterizations for old characters like The Penguin and Two-Face are a breath of fresh air. These characters have been around longer than your grandparents, so why shouldn’t we get new versions every once in a while? It’s refreshing to see a new take rather than the stale old stories we’ve been getting for decades.
Meanwhile, the tone of Batman: Caped Crusader is just perfect I was worried that all of Bruce Timm’s talk of making the show Fox and Warner Bros. wouldn’t let him make it back in the ’90s, which meant we were getting yet another grimdark, Frank Miller-inspired Batman. Once again, I was wrong—in the most satisfying way possible.
Batman: Caped Crusader isn’t dark and gritty so much as pulpy and noirish. The show doesn’t ape Miller but instead pays homage to pulp heroes like The Shadow, who directly inspired the Dark Knight Detective. It’s slightly more mature than BTAS, but it’s hardly an “adult show” like Max’s Harley Quinn.
