It's easy to look back in hindsight, with other shows and say this would have been better for one of them, but when this was all that there was, it was simply another genre exploration, like the adventure serial setting of the previous Ra's al Ghul two-parter. And honestly I think it works quite well here - fun and exciting some cool visuals, and it allows Batman and Robin to go somewhere they hadn't been before. It would have been interesting, during the Justice League, to give them a taste of what it's like to be Superman or the Flash, but predating those things I think it works well as its own entity.Andrew Gilbertsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10604304361825660940noreply@blogger.com
