"The Adventures of Batman & Robin" for the Sega CD featured animated cutscenes dubbed the Lost Episode of "Batman: The Animated Series." But do they actually work in continuity with the cartoon? And if so...when do I pause my latest BTAS binge to, uh, play a video game?

It probably could be canon because, as far as I know, it doesn't mess with the continuity in any way, especially since the game is all set in a simulation. It definitely takes place before Justice League, that's for sure.

I asked Kevin Altieri about this game and he told me that he had a lot of freedom in his section (Clayface on the boat) Apparently very little of the action was in the script, so he got to come up with ways of demonstrating Clayface’s powers. The part where Batman shoots Clayface with an anti-air cannon is 100% something I can see Kevin coming up with. Shocking. Violent. Explosive. And it involves aircraft. All hallmarks of Kevin’s work!

Small bit of info, there IS wind in the Batcave! Bats have to have ways in and out of the cave, so there are entrances to the caves besides the ones Batman uses and wind will blow thru these openings because caves "breathe". It's a known phenomenon.

@Alloveck 11 дней назад

Yeah, I've experienced cave wind and drafts personally, and I don't exactly have extensive experience with caves. It can also be pretty localized, so I have no problem seeing most of the batcave having consistently minimal airflow and some specific parts getting a pretty good draft going at certain times. Batman's a borderline implausibly smart guy after all, he'd certainly have the expert level cave aerodynamics knowledge and foresight to plan his batcave infrastructure around where wind would and would not be present.

This kills me because on a technical side, I truly believe that the animated sequences in this game are some of, if not the most beautiful ever made for BTAS : the characters are beautifully drawn, it's very dynamic, the work on shadows and lighting is sophisticated... Yet, we'll probably never be able to see this in an uncompressed format.

I noticed that the lost episode is far more violent than the TV series as: 1) the TV series wouldn't show Batman hitting an opponent directly in the face,instead the punch would be replaced with a red or white flash 2) The riddler is violently electrocuted which wouldn't get pass Fox censors 3) Joker and Batman duking it out brutally to the point Joker loses a few teeth

@kalkuttadrop6371 15 дней назад

21:50 Orrrrr, he was nearly killed in Mudslide because he was already unstable and falling apart and the water just finished him off. In his prime he could probably tank the water even if it knocked him out of action for a bit.(In Mudslide he completely dissolves away into thin sludge, while here he's clearly just breaking into chunks, there's a lot more tangibility and thickness) Heck you could argue this tip might have been the triggering factor for the mutagen degradation, the bad damage made him unstable. That works fine. Riddler is just re-using old kit from the previous scheme since this is a collaboration and not a proper Riddler plan(hence Batman deals with it way easier), Clayface is in his prime and hasn't started violently degrading yet(though perhaps his dip at the end helped set that off), Ivy is still mostly human and not a plant clone yet. Thorne being out of town for weeks just clarifies this isn't right next to The Man Who Killed Batman.

@seelikemee 6 дней назад

The idea that clayface “died” twice the exact same way doesn’t seem too far fetched because have you ever made mud more wet?

Great episode, James! I heard about this game back in the day, but since I didn't own the system, I couldn't play it. I had no idea it fit into continuity so well. I'd love to keep the theme running with a "will it canon“ for the batman vengeance game. This was on the gamecube (not sure if it was on any other consoles), and it was a fucking blast! It had all the voice actors from the show, only a few annoying driving stages, and a really engrossing story. Easily one of the most fun games I ever played on the gamecube. And I'd love to hear your take on it.

@scrudge5352 8 дней назад

I really appreciate the message that a story's canon status is inconsequential to the actual quality or importance of the story. I think my favorite line on this subject was from Alan Moore's "Whatever Happened to the Man of Tomorrow", an out of continuity Superman story: "This is an imaginary story... aren't they all?"

@karabearcomics 15 дней назад

I maintain something I mentioned some time ago: you should do a video on Gotham Girls. Granted, I assume it's going to canon, but trying to figure out where in the timeline could be interesting. But aside from that, there's also Batman: Rise of Sin Tzu, which I don't remember you covering, at least. It would fit alongside this one as the whole original video game story and its possible canonicity. Maybe Superman 64, as well, but maybe not, because that would be torture to have to play again.
