Season One (read that review) dealt with setting up the major Bat-villains, the city, and dealing with Bruce Wayne. Season Two delves deeper into the Batman universe in examining the more of the characters’ origins, motivations, and roles in the series. Bruce Timm and Eric Radomski really begin to knock out some winners as the series begins to hit it’s stride.
Season Two brings back the villains and Gotham natives from Season One while expanding the universe and adding a few new characters. We get some more Robin episodes, most notably the retelling of the Dick Grayson Robin origin story. Finally a Riddler episode “If You’re So Smart Why Aren’t You Rich?” tells the origin tale of the Mr. Edward Nigma and his life of crime involving riddles, a maze and a Minotaur. Commissioner Gordon will be shot in “I am the Night” prompting Bruce Wayne to consider hanging up the cape and cowl. The episode is also of interest for the sly reference O’Neil and Adams.

A bride (Amanda Seyfried) attempts to learn the identity of her father on her wedding day in this film adaptation of the Broadway musical. Meryl Streep, Pierce Brosnan, Stellan Skarsgard, Julie Waters, and Colin Firth also star. Check out the official site. The film opens everywhere on Friday.
As part of all things Batty we take a look at Batman: Dead End. This low budget fan film makes some important points – 1) Batman doesn’t need to be cased in rubberized armor to be cool; this costume (made for far less) simply makes those multi-million dollar rubber suits look silly. 2) Fanboys, no matter how much they love the character, can just as easily screw something like this up (as you’ll notice with the introduction of both a Predator and an Alien).
Seems like Hellboy is everywhere.
