There’s nothing in particular that sticks out as really Kamandi, from the dominant species-crossed future world. Its honoring of the almighty Kirby such as thisĮpisode’s teaser which yet again features the boy, Brave and the Bold has remained subtle in His numerous influences into the vast universe of DC’s Those names is certainly the legendary Jack Kirby and Remain common among even the most casual of fans. There have been few names that transcend the decades and Various ages of the comics that make up DC’s repertoire A different sort of transformation from the mecha type the show was so fond of in the earlier seasons, and a good change. Reminiscent of both Young Justice: Sins of Youth, and JLU’s Kid Stuff (jokes on Batman’s constant ‘race you to the Batmobile/wherever), I enjoyed it immensely. Cuteness factor was to the point where my mother happening to chance on me watching the episode laughed herself at the now gurgling Batbaby. The drawings he sent to the Marvels were amusing to say the least, and watching a little Batbaby spying while his interior thoughts were still that of the adult made me laugh. As Mary Marvel says later, Batman was “sooo adorable” (“yes, you are, you know you are”) as a baby/child. The designs were also fantastic throughout the whole deaging process. Bader does an amazing job as the teenaged Batman, till the sound effects have to take over as Batman got younger, and after that, the lisp he did, “bad catuawpillah, BAD” added so much more to the absurd entertainment. It was nice to see the Marvel Family together, having only seen Captain Marvel in the DCAU, but Batboob- I mean Batma- I mean, Batbaby, stole the show. Mind, delivering some of the best lines like “this scintillating battle of wits” in response to Batman’s less than witty insult. The design worked well, and kudos to the storyboards and animators for doing the little things like having his shoulders jiggle when laughing evilly. Mind in his Multiverse consuming form must be easily recognisable to any recent comics reader, but even without looks formidable. Of course, once the effects of the growth ray were in place, the body matched the mind, as it were, and so did the voice. Is it another studio in-joke that Greg Ellis, who played an intelligent, speaking anthropomorphed dog in the teaser now plays an evil evil geeky worm? Perhaps, and the stock menacing, sneering tone that Ellis put on for the first half of the episode was so jarring with the comical little Mr. He starts off looking the way he did back in the days of the Monster Society (who also appear), a very cartoonish bookworm with the voice box slung miraculously about him. Crazy, but true, and you would expect the creators of Brave and the Bold to do something like this. Mind’s Pre-Crisis and Post-Infinite Crisis incarnations.

So, we’re never really quite sure of how the next character introduced will turn out. Now, we’ve already had a mixture of current and Silver/Golden age incarnations of characters on the show, like Stargirl and Jaime Reyes as Blue Beetle.

I expected relative action and piecemeal humour, but this episode was one which exceeded those expectations, and I found myself, once again, genuinely laughing. Personally, I’m not familiar with the Marvel family beyond the tres weird changes it went through during the 52 comics arc, so I wasn’t that excited about seeing ‘The Big Red Cheese’, as Dr. Main Episode: This episode was nicely rounded with a good dose of action and humour, both. Canus tried to rally help from the city’s animals, but the humour there was enough. Wasn’t too sure about the timing of some of the lines, as Dr. We are also now aware of how truly dangerous hip-hop music is. Never doubt the power of a pack of AA batteries.

Humour on the part of, what shall we call it, cultural gaps between the extreme future and present time. Teaser: We got to see some more of Kamandi and Dr. Music by Michael McCuisition, Lolita Ritmanis, Theme Written and Performed by Andy Strumer John Devito as Freddy/Captain Marvel Junior Sivana and the Monster Society!ĭirected by Michael Chang & Michael Goguen Batman and the Marvel family take on the evil Dr.
