This episode just proves to me that Silver Age fits Superman soooooooo much better than Batman.

 

[Thunder Monkey]

Goofy Batman is just as awesome as Grimdark Batman.

Guess the problem is Batman then.

 

[evil solrac v3.0]

brilliant. simply brilliant.

 

[yencid]

holy shit... FUCK YEAH KRYPTO!

oh shit the hand to hand fight... OMG so good!

 

[Fallen_Hero]

Guess the problem is Batman then.

It's simple. Kill the Batman.

 

[Kusagari]

I must see this episode.

 

[Snake]

All those screen-grabs show is how much better the art of the original comics are compared to the cartoon.

 

[SpeedingUptoStop]

Just watched 3 eps of this show. I think I'm in love.

Time to start from the beginning.

 

[Thunder Monkey]

It's simple. Kill the Batman.

I did in one of my dreams.

Low and behold he's still around.

 

[TheKaeptain]

EARTHQUAKE!

HOLY SHIT AWESOME SAUCE...

 

[Spike]

When we told you all to watch this show...

 

[beat]

Silver Age stuff was great but the Dark Knight Returns tribute/homage was done better by B:TAS - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QoZLPwRCjcQ

OTOH, it's always fun to see an armored Batman kicking Superman in the face.

 

[Neki]

LOL "you diseased maniac" my favourite line.

 

[krypt0nian]

Really?

Yes, really. Curt Swan is considered the prime Superman artist pretty much of all time.

 

[Tizoc]

Yes, really. Curt Swan is considered the prime Superman artist pretty much of all time.

Also Aquaman practically MAKES this show even more awesome/OUTRAGEOUS.

 

[m3k]

that was nice, even though i dont know much superman stuff

lol

and that was nice too

 

[Dead Man]

That's kind of awesome.

 

[Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew]

And thus, GAF convinced me that after Adventure of B&M, this is the next big thing. Watching it tomorrow!!

 

[krypt0nian]

Also Aquaman practically MAKES this show even more awesome/OUTRAGEOUS.

Correct on both points.

Curt Swan is the fucking man when it comes to Superman illustrations, and I'm honored to have met him and shook his hand and thanked him before he passed. :bow

Lucky son of a...

 

[TheOddOne]

Superman putting the cat in the tree... buhahahahhaahha.

 

[Veidt]

I fucking loved this episode. Better than anything animated on television so far.


I can't count how many times I blurred out "oh man, superman's an asshole!"

 

[Asbel]

EARTHQUAKE!

HILARIOUS!

Man, Jimmy Olsen would really fit the style of this show, but he ain't Batman's Pal.

 

[Hot Coldman]

Cartoon Network UK shows this, Regular Show and Adventure Time back to back daily. FUCK YEAH

This episode is brilliant. I'm too young/out of touch with comics to truly appreciate the superdickery callbacks (although the idea of a superhero putting a cat UP a tree can always be understood), but stuff like the brutal Batman/Superman fight was so cool.

 

[Router]

I feel bad for writing this show off after the horrendous The Batman.

WHAT? The awesome cartoon about Batman setting up THE JUSTICE LEAGUE?

That show Fucking rocks.

 

[spindashing]

The Batman had some weird animation. I remember praising it for its story and dark feel but I saw an episode two days ago randomly and I was taken aback at how bad it looked.

But, I must watch more of The Brave and the Bold. Cartoon Network is slaying in the Cartoon genre. Young Justice, Brave and the Bold, Adventure Time, Regular Show? Cot damn.

 

[Spike Spiegel]

One bit of "Superdickery" that I missed last night:

"No autographs!"

 

[Mike M]

Never expected DC to ever acknowledge Superdickery, let alone six years after the meme peaked.

Is this episode available online anywhere? I definitely need to check it out when I get home.

It's in the OP.

 

[Jenga]

no autographs! *pew*

 

[Jenga]

if a superman brave and the bold spin-off series came out as a result of this, i'd watch the hell out of it

 

[Tizoc]

Ya know there should be an episode dedicated to Jimmy Olsen's dozens of transformations.

Oh and you know what's another great thing about this show?

MUTHAFUGGIN JONAH HEX!

Oh and if anyone is interested Demonoid should have the show for your viewing pleasure >o>;;;;;;

 

[magnificent83]

But, I must watch more of The Brave and the Bold. Cartoon Network is slaying in the Cartoon genre. Young Justice, Brave and the Bold, Adventure Time, Regular Show? Cot damn.

CN is just disappointing to me animation-wise, they didn't fight for or cancelled Spectacular Spiderman, Boondocks or SymBionic Titan or Brave and the Bold but at least Brave and the Bold will get a decent ending unlike the others

 

[tim1138]

This was easily the best episode of Brave and the Bold, as I said in the official thread, this should have been the series finale because no episode will top this.

 

[From The Dust]

Oh and if anyone is interested blank should have the show for your viewing pleasure >o>;;;;;;

EDIT THAT SHIT OUT HOMIE!

 

[The Technomancer]

The Batman had some weird animation. I remember praising it for its story and dark feel but I saw an episode two days ago randomly and I was taken aback at how bad it looked.

I still think it looks alright. Its more that when Batgirl got introduced it completely went to shit.

 

[Extollere]

Hey guys, what's going on in this thr-

ead..oh going on..in .... goin...go...goh, GOH MY GOOOOd

 

[Shig]

All those screen-grabs show is how much better the art of the original comics are compared to the cartoon.

Yeah, pages from a monthly comic that take a person a day or so apiece to draw have more attention to detail than a a single frame from a weekly cartoon that requires thousands of cels per episode.

It's a real-head-scratcher.

 

[SpeedingUptoStop]

Goddam this show is so fun.

 

[sharbhund]

EARTHQUAKE!

I like the little shriek they make when he drops it back onto the table.

 

[fallengorn]

That episode was amazing. I need to catch up Brave and the Bold.

 

[From The Dust]

I still think it looks alright. Its more that when Batgirl got introduced it completely went to shit.

I always hated the artstyle of the show. probably why I never took the time to get into it

 

[Kreed]

BB&B is a fantastic show. I mean in one episode they went back and made a new Scooby Doo & Batman crossover, with Weird Al Yankovic!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TvQYfM-M2fU

My favorite part is this:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TvQYfM-M2fU&feature=player_detailpage#t=338s

Bat-mite mentioned that back in the day, Batman couldn't throw a punch -- so he rectifies it!

How did I miss this episode? Cartoon Network should have multiple airings of BB&B.

 

[Plasmid]

batman pulled off supermans face to reveal his mask

:lol :lol

 

[BenjaminBirdie]

Holy SHIT amazing OP!!!

 

[Ephemeris]

Episode of the forever.

Brave and the bold has been a guilty pleasure of mine for a while now. Does someone many things well. Best aquaman ever?

Yes.

 

[ThatObviousUser]

Yes, really. Curt Swan is considered the prime Superman artist pretty much of all time.

Too many excess lines for my personal tastes, but eh.

 

[Fimbulvetr]

They even reference super-ventriloquism.

Oh man, best episode of anything ever.

 

[TheKaeptain]

Why is this not on Amazon VOD yet? Need to watch it with my son.

 

[Sciz]

Brave and the Bold is everything that has ever been good about every single version of Batman rolled up into 22 minute bits of brilliance. And above and beyond that, it's also dedicated to taking all of the lemons of DC history and making lemonade out of them. Watch it.
