Batman: The Audio Adventures

I literally have eight hours a day to fill. I'll listen to almost anything. But this is high production, poorly cast, badly written trash. I love Melissa Vilesenor, but why is she playing Robin? Two Face's two voices were not different. Chris Parnell is ok, but just sound like Dr. Spaceman doing a bit. I which Rosario Dawson had better dialogue. I cannot believe this got a second season. I'm especially sad that this is so bad after having listened to The Riddler and Batman: Unburied. Those were both excellent. Do yourself a favor and listen to those instead. Sorry, Jeffrey Wright, even you couldn't save this crap.

This is such a fantastic and surprising podcast -- if you love radio dramas and you love comic books -- you'll be satisfied. Disappointing to see the other reviewer complain about audio shows -- this is not only a wonderful addition to the Batman canon, it's also great for anyone who is seeing impaired (like myself)

Do yourself a favor and make a hot drink, light a fire and lay back and go to Gotham City tonight. You just won't be sorry.

Batman: The Audio Adventures is comedic and campy creativity that presents the mythos of Batman in one of the most unique forms to have come out in a long time. It's an adventurous comedy with a dash of what makes Batman darkly desirous and it's a drama with sprinkles of satirical silliness(In a good way)!

I love Batman and I adore this rendition so much! It's Batman dark without loosing its cartoonish neon glow. It's like if the animated series and the Arkham games had a baby and its cool wine aunt was the 60's Batman.

The Pros: *The creative direction was so beyond fun. Thank god to whoever made the choice of Harley Quinn's plot! Hot damn it was such a refreshing take.

*The chemistry of all the actors was so so fun to hear. John Leguizamo and Heidi Gardner are a total chef's kiss match up. Bobby Moynihan Is amazing as Penguin. Brent Spiner as Joker is so skin crawlingly creepy and darkly funny. Bradley Whitford's Scarecrow was written in the stars. Just the whole cast really made it. I didn't have a hard time accepting Jeffrey Wright as Batman at all. Melissa Villaseñor as Robbin was totally what you think the boy wonder would sound like.

* Cheers to Gillian Jacobs; I have noooo clue why she isn't everyone pick to voice Harley. She hit the nail so hard on the head she turned it into sausages.

The con. It's a big one but it could be fixed: I wish there was more. There isn't enough. I'm thinking of writing HBO and making a petition to get it back.

If you want or need something to hear because your getting bored of your playlists, if your a long term fan or casual viewer maybe even new to the fandom, I 100000% recommend this to anybody and everybody.

For those who felt Batman the animated series could have reached an even wider audience if catered to a slightly older demographic YOU ARE IN LUCK. This has been the greatest piece of Batman media I've had the pleasure to consume since I first fell in love with BTAS and its related movies and comics.

I've always found that what makes Batman's character and story so tragic, and a rule that follows those he comes to know, is that no good deed goes unpunished. But what makes his story worth knowing, (and retelling for what, 80 years??) is that despite this, he cares so much, he fights so hard, and in the face of each loss, each mistake, he gets back up, to do the right thing. Each. And. Every. Time.

Batman the audio adventures perfectly embodies this drive for good, while also showing us the unintended consequences that come from it and how it affects our well meaning vigilante and those allied with him.

This cast of incredibly talented voice actors and sound FX wizards came together to breath life into the winding, weaving plot and the perilous tales found...in life and death, in Gotham city.
