Even after 32 years since the release of Bruce Timm’s Batman: The Animated Series, the four seasoned show still seems like a quality watch. Worthy of celebration and binge-watching, the 1992 series brought in dark visuals, compelling stories, and incredible characters that impressed fans, once and for all. But among all the profound things that the show did, Timm indefinitely created a better version of one Batman villain.

Yes, we’re talking about Mr. Freeze who previously appeared in Adam West’s 1966 show Batman. Played by three different actors in West’s three seasoned show, the villainous character was unfortunately turned into a joke, which was later perfected by Bruce Timm in his Batman: The Animated Series. Voiced by the late actor Michael Ansara, Mr. Freeze in Timm’s series eventually got his deserving respect as an iconic villain.

The '90s was a treasure trove of superhero cartoons.
Long before live-action TV series came swinging back with Smallville Season 1 and Arrow Season 1, the heroes dominated cartoons. Between titles like Spider-man, X-Men: The Animated Series, Batman Beyond, and Superman: The Animated Series, we Fanatics had a buffet.
But what was at the top of the tower? Easy! It was Batman: The Animated Series.
Batman: The Animated Series ran for two seasons between 1992 to 1995. Unofficially (but totally officially), the follow-up series The New Batman Adventures in 1997 continued the story as the "final season."
For a sweet 30-minute runtime per episode, we were treated to the best Batman cartoon adaptation.
Just picture the era of Batman during this time.
It had been decades since Adam West's Batman Pow!'d and Bonk!'d on the small screen or the Tim Burton Batman flicks dominated theaters, especially with the latest release of Batman Returns.

‘The Blind Side’ Subject Michael Oher’s High School Football Coach Addresses Conservatorship Lawsuit
Michael Oher‘s high school football coach is weighing in on the lawsuit between Oher and the Tuohy family.
The 37-year-old former NFL pro filed a lawsuit on Monday that alleges that Sean and Leigh Anne Tuohy tricked him into a conservatorship and lied about his adoption status when he was 18.
Auburn coach Hugh Freeze, who coached Oher at Briarcrest Christian School in Memphis, called the legal drama “sad.”
“I think it’s sad. I certainly don’t claim to understand all the ins and outs of adoption, conservatory, all of that. I know what I witnessed,” Freeze said Thursday, per The Athletic’s David Ubben. “I witnessed a family that totally took in a young man and I think without that, there is no story.”
Although Freeze said he’s not aware of the specific details surrounding the lawsuit, he defended the Tuohys, calling their handling of the situation...

"Batman: The Animated Series" is one of the most celebrated cartoons ever made. It not only gave us a near-perfect portrayal of Gotham City and its Caped Crusader, a nuanced take on popular comic villains, but also had a stunning visual style that took advantage of the medium of animation to translate the world of comics to TV. From the use of black paper backgrounds to give Gotham a darker look, to the Arc Deco influence, no show looked or felt like this one.
As unique as "Batman: The Animated Series" was, it was still a Fox show aimed at kids, so certain things were toned down. There's the infamous image Bruce Timm made with the nine big taboos the show was not allowed to do, and also a story of how the writers were not allowed to turn Batman into a vampire in an episode.

A case can be made that Batman is the quintessential cinematic superhero. He’s certainly been the most adapted to the big screen, with the Caped Crusader starring in 12 theatrically released films when you count animation and William Dozier’s Batman: The Movie tie-in from 1966. There’s good reason for that ubiquitousness too.
The visceral mystique of a dark cowl and cape; the shadowy world of an urban landscape crying out for a hero; even the universally relatable origin of an orphan who seeks to fill the void left by his parents’ deaths. Much of the iconography Batman would come to define in superhero comics was on the silver screen first. After all, Batman co-creator Bob Kane once described the character as “half-Zorro,” and for most folks of his generation, Zorro was synonymous with Douglas Fairbanks in The Mark of Zorro (1920), the movie which made the story of a daring...

"Batman: The Animated Series" is quite possibly the best interpretation of the Caped Crusader outside of the comic books. There's so much to commend this show: the pitch-perfect voice actors, the stunning animation, the introduction of Harley Quinn, its faithfulness to the source material, and its reinvention of B-list characters are just a few of the series' many great qualities. It's also widely known that the show is, in the eyes of many fans, the definitive version of the Dark Knight and his world.
However, what really sets "Batman: The Animated Series" apart from (if not above) other superhero animated shows is its mature tone. While remaining within the confines of Saturday morning cartoons, the series appealed to kids and adults in equal measure. After all, Batman is a character grown from the tragedy experienced by a young Bruce Wayne. He doesn't just beat up criminals at night while dressed up as a bat.
