When “Batman: The Animated Series” became “The New Batman Adventures,” all of the bad guys got big makeovers, some better off than others. But just HOW did these changes come about, in-universe?

I forgot if its a comic or a movies, but Batman said "The Joker is the most Dangerous because he's unpredictable. One day He'll do practical jokes and pranks just for a laugh. Other days he'll commit the worst atrocities known to man with a smile." My guess why Joker looks like that, is he decided he wanted to. Not a DCAU explanation, but it does fit Joker.
Scarecrow got one hell of a glow-up! Casting Jeffrey Combs as his new voice was brilliant!
i actually love the new design of the joker way better than the old one tbh
Albion online. The New Raid Shadow Legends.
lol I had the insect Freeze toy growing up…aka Spider Freeze
10:23 while spiders DO have 8 legs, those legs on the robot are individual spider legs.
I honestly liked all of the original designs better. Except for maybe scarcrow. But it does make sense for mr freeze and characters like him to update thier costume overtime
Hmm
Gone was his…HAIR.
What if Joker dropped the lipstick and added black contacts?
The stories were still so engaging i didn’t even care about the character redesigns
Is it just me or does redesigned joker give anyone else anamaniacs vibes?
Is it weird that I like Joker's new design about the same as the original?
I looked at the thumbnail and thought it said
Like Men
For a sec
Was never really a big fan of TNBA Joker design. He looked like an Animaniac.
Glad they fixed him up for the rest of the DCAU
He doesn't know who man bat is
I don't see fine print
My gay ass read the thumbnail as “I like men”
Wooops looks like we have some visual difficulties but dont worry folks were still in the media 😈
If they decided on the original redesigned cat woman where she had her lucious hair exposed, i would've crushed on that catwoman as a kid
Batman gets drastic redesigns and people love it. American Dragon gets a slight artstyle change and people hate it.
I feel like I'm the only one on the planet who really loves TNBA's Joker design.
For the Joker, I just go with the Harley hid her lipstick explanation
Help, I saw “like men.” instead of “Like new.” In the thumbnail dawg 😭
Batman and scarecrow were the good redesigns. Ventriloquist and Riddler were the worst.
Am I the only person who randomly gets reccomended this video and repeatedly accidentally reads the thumbnail as "LIKE MEN"
Love tim drakes red suit hate jokers design.
The uh bat creature dude is called Manbat if I am correct
The lois lane ez bake mold issue i had with pretty much all the female characters in this extension kinda made me sad.
I thought they were just cheaping out. Less detail means less money spent drawing all the detail. The newer designs just look bad.
Russo brothers said that scarlet witch got rid of her accent to hide, same way widow went blond and cap grew a beard. I guess falcon just… didn’t want to change himself/didn’t think anyone would notice him?
Yes i lost interest amd always wondered why the new batman re vamp looks so HALF ASSED..!?!?
I genuinely thought the picture said "like men" and clicked on it expecting some Joker and Batman hay joke
Didn’t they say some bs about how Wanda was so use to watching American stuff and immersing herself in the culture that she began to pick up an American accent
The vast majority of the redesigns in The New Batman Adventures ranged from "eh/indifferent" to "outright atrocious."
I'd say the only one that was better was Scarecrow. Some are pretty fine, like Harley Quinn or Batgirl. Two-Face, Poison Ivy are eh. Batman, Joker, Jim Gordon, Penguin, etc are just straight ugly
I've gotten used to most of the redesigns, except for joker and Riddler… No excuse for those two!
Wow, the amount of editing that goes into your videos is insane. Well done! Great topic, too. The thinking behind some of those changes always intrigued me.
man bat
His name is Man-Bat
