Christmas Countdown Day #4: Christmas with the Joker (Batman: The Animated Series)

I couldn't have a Christmas Countdown and not include a clip from the Batman: The Animated Series episode Christmas with the Joker. I can't believe Robin really thought the Joker would just go into hiding or lie low. Their quiet evening didn't last long but at least the rest of the villains and crooks in Gotham decided not to do anything.

Comic Book Wednesday: March 18th Picks

Although most of us can't get to the comic book store, it's still Comic Book Wednesday! So, what book were you planning on getting today? Out of my usual books, I have the special Robin 80th Anniversary issue.

It's so cool that Robin a.k.a Dick Grayson has been around for 80 years (this April). And not to take anything away from the other Robins who were created later (I adore Tim Drake) but this is really Dick Grayson's celebration. I know the special issue is going to focus on all the Robins but I do hope there will be more attention given to him.

Aside from that, I hope to get my books sometime this week since I believe my local comic book store will be offering curbside pick up. Customers will be given a chance to pay for their orders over the phone then pick up their books.

Well, here's my list. Take care everyone.

DVD Tuesday: Batman and Harley Quinn, Baywatch and Gotham Season 3

DVD Tuesday, feels more like Batman day since there is a new animated movie Batman and Harley Quinn and the release of the third season of Gotham out today.

I still remember the Batman: The Animated Series episode where Batman and Robin had to work with Harley Quinn to find the Joker. And it looks like in this movie they will be working with her again this time to find Poison Ivy. Should be fun and not doubt total madness.

The first season of Gotham may not have been the best, but thankfully it didn't get cancelled because seasons two and three totally made up for it.

Today is not all about Batman, because Baywatch is also out today. I can't wait to see this again, it didn't seem to do as well as the box office maybe viewers will give it a chance now that it's out on DVD/Blu-ray and digital.


Batman and Harley Quinn


Description:

Batman finds his patience tested to the limit when he goes on a roadtrip with Harley Quinn to track down her old partner-in-crime, Poison Ivy.

Batman's home town is a monster, and its veins flow with crime -- including a rampaging Man-Bat, the murderous Mr. Zsasz and a twisted "Santa Claus", among many others.

But the world's most dangerous city is not without hope, thanks to the Dark Knight Detective and his network of operatives -- Robin, Huntress, Oracle and Abuse, the new vigilante with a startling secret identity -- whose tireless work keeps the population safe.

But when Robin and Abuse get caught up in the web of Mr. Zsaz's attack on Gotham's children, will Batman be able to save them -- or will they end up being swallowed whole by the concrete and steel monster he has sworn to protect?

Book of Interest: Batman & Robin Adventures vol #1

I still love watching Batman: The Animated Series and I'm sure other fans do as well. It was a great show. Over the years I've only read a few of the Batman Adventures comic books and now that the series has been republished I'm now able to read them all. I already have volume #1 and I'm working on getting the remainder volumes #2-4.

With that said why did I just find out that they also started republishing Batman & Robin Adventures? I will be getting this as well, this make me happy to be a fan.
