Warner Bros. Home Entertainment was kind enough to send me a review copy of the on-everyone’s-wish-list Batman: The Complete Animated Series Blu-ray set. Due to the incredible demand, as indicated by the huge increase in the print run, I didn’t get any of the extras, so I can’t speak to those, but I was thrilled to be able to check out the new movie-length feature, “The Heart of Batman”.
Batman: The Complete Animated Series (Deluxe Limited Edition) ll 109 episodes (Batman: The Animated Series and The New Batman Adventures) of the critically acclaimed, Emmy-winning series that redefined the Dark Knight with its thematic sophistication, aesthetics, voice acting, and orchestral score, have been remastered for the first time since their broadcast airing and are now all here in.

- Batman The Complete Animated Series (Blu-ray) is a high-definition Blu-ray release of all 109 episodes of Batman: The Animated Series and The New Batman Adventures, as well as the feature length films Batman: Mask of the Phantasm and Batman & Mr. Freeze: SubZero. This release includes 25 featurettes - led by a 60+ minute 'Batman: The Animated Series' making-of documentary, 'The Heart of Batman.
- Also, FOX's insistence on using laser guns and a no punching policy kind of saps the show from the maturity of other acclaimed series like Batman: The Animated Series. Nonetheless, with strong voice casting, a very accurate depiction of Peter Parker's personality and great character development, this show still stands as the best Spider Man.
There are 10 Blu-rays in the set (not counting the movies). Five are labeled season one, with two each for seasons two and three. That leaves one special features disc. It has two items. One, “Concepting Harley Quinn”, is a minute and a half of a young Paul Dini talking about the character. It’s nice to have for completists, but not really necessary. The other is the reason we’re here.
“The Heart of Batman” runs 1 hour, 38 1/2 minutes in two parts, plus a “Musical Interlude”, an intermission of a little over two minutes accompanied by painted background images. The two sections are titled “Season of Darkness” and “Season of Light”.
The approach is best described as a great anniversary party or reunion. Fans won’t find a lot new here, but it’s a wonderful overview of what it took to make the show, with just about everyone possible participating. Here are all the people who comment on-screen, in rough order of their appearance:
