Anyone here seen Batman: The Animated Series?
Good evening everybody, this is Aifos coming to you alive from Gotham! This is an awful place, and I want to get out of here as fast as possible! All the more reason for you to answer my question quickly!
So, I'm currently debating on watching Batman: The Animated Series, and the associated shows, such as Superman: The Animated Series, Justice League, and Batman Beyond. From what I've heard, this is the best Batman, and hearing someone describe why this Batman is the best has sold me on the show, and made me decide to watch it.
However, from what I understand, there's a movie tie in with this show (meaning same Batman and all that) called Mask of the Phantasm, which doesn't show up on iTunes by just looking up "Batman: The Animated Series". So, I have a couple questions:
1. How many movies are tied in with this series--meaning the same Batman--and around what time would it be best to watch them (for example, "Watch Mask of the Phantasm after episode 40" or something)?
2. How many other series are connected to this one? I know Batman Beyond and Justice League, obviously, but any others?
3. What would be the best order to watch these series? I know Batman and Superman should be watched before Justice League, and from what I understand the final episode of Justice League Unlimited is actually the final episode for Batman Beyond, so probably that one at some point before them, too?
Also, feel free to give me your opinions on the show, but obviously no spoilers.
[b][u]Tl;dr? Here's my point![/b][/u]
I'm thinking about watching Batman: The Animated Series. I have questions about the show. Look at the questions above.
But that's all for now folks! Jambuhbye!

From what I remember it was a lot less serial in form (as in, it didn’t have much of a running plot beyond a few multi-part stories) compared to other shows at the time like Spider-Man, so it might not matter too much what order you watch other things. Marvel seemed to be more into that, with crossovers between Spider-Man, Hulk (and She-Hulk) and the X-Men series a few times iirc. I never watched any of the other DC shows or films so I have no idea about those. I did catch a few episodes of Batman Beyond though and I enjoyed it. I distinctly remember quite liking ‘The Batman’ series as well which came out quite a long time later, around 2007 or 8 I think. I assume you’ve heard of it and discounted it but thought I’d mention it just in case. Edit: okay according to Wikipedia The Batman started in 2004 so my internal clock must be way off lmao
