Batman: The Animated Series has some moments that are definitely not for kids. Subscribe to our channel: http://goo.gl/ho3Hg6
Batman is dark. Even Batman The Animated Series was dark, and that was supposed to be fore kids! Some of the subject matter in that show was definitely a little dark for children to see, but it consistently pushed the boundaries and that’s why it’s an award winning show. In “Growing Pains,” a little girl gets sucked into a monster and dies, and Mr. Freeze gets his backstory changed to something much more dark and tragic. Speaking of Mr. Freeze, he does what he does best and freezes an immortal person alive, trapping him forever in ice at the bottom of the ocean. Then we have stories that are based off of real life tragedies like the Mad Hatter whose storyline was based off of a real life shooting, and writer Paul Dini’s real experience with a terrifying mugging. Let’s not forget about Robin, who watched his parents die right in front of his eyes, and then he almost murders a man for revenge. On the subject of death, we have a conscious robot that may just have a soul who kills himself, and Bruce Wayne jumping from a bell tower to kill himself too. Yes, the series is dark. But that’s why we love it. It challenges our understanding of what a superhero show should be. DC gets a lot of flack for being dark, but the adult subject matter provides an actual weight to situations that you just don’t get with Marvel. Not even Thanos and his finger snaps can match what DC does.
