![]() The Penguin and The Joker (now looking like a cross between Krusty the Clown and The Predator) escape from Arkham (there's something new) and make their way to a hidden treasure trove in the cemetery. I know it's a cliché to moan that animated shows were always better when my age-group were kids, but it's so true. This new THE Batman series appears to be reconfigured to appeal to kids who weren't even born in that decade. I prefer the 90s series of Batman, which had an overwhelming amount of darkness and Gothic pathos. The color pallet is suitably drab and washed out and it does have a decent amount of atmosphere but I can't help but think that it could have been better if it just didn't seem toned down. Although it is rather serious in tone and deals with vampires and the undead, The Batman vs Dracula just seems to childish and too cartoony to be really effective.
