The choices on what Bat-villains to include in the First Season of Batman: The Caped Crusader are interesting. Not loading up on A-villains, other than Catwoman (Christina Ricci) and Penguin (Minnie Driver), who have yet to step into the light for the first time, the show mainly played with stories of gangsters, corrupt cops, and when dipping its toe into the super-villain pool making some intriguing choices from B-list or even D-list of Batman’s long list of enemies. None of these are more unexpected then in “Nocturne” where the show reimagines the long-running character of Nocturna as a kid whose powers were greater than her control.

The point of the episode, so to speak, is to provide Barbara a new perspective as to what someone deserves.

Hmm, okay? The oddest episode of the First Season of Batman: Caped Crusader introduces a ghostly anti-Robin Hood terrorizing the poor of Gotham City by robbing from charities and the like. While the episode’s B-story continues to play out the seediness of Gotham City in Harvey Dent (Diedrich Bader) falling behind in the polls and accepting the help of Rupert Thorne (Cedric Yarbrough) which will have repercussions in the final two episodes of the season, this ghost story certainly seems a bit out of place. The ghost does weave into Harvey’s story, giving him another public black eye and causing the candidate to take a hard look at Thorne’s offer.
