Biases: I am a fan of the Batman, I have had a fascination with the character from childhood. I am a fan of animation in general, I own a large collection of animated TV series and films.
I already owned Volumes 1-3 of the series and Mask of the Phantasm on DVD, and only bought this set for the upgrade in visual quality and the digital copies. Even without the digital copies it is easy enough to create them from the original discs, which I am doing to stream across PLEX over a home network.
Packaging comparison: Visually the packaging for the DVD editions is by far more appealing to the eyes, however it comes with a cost, and that is shelf space. Which is one reason I prefer the packaging of the Blu-Ray edition, you will gain a substantial amount of shelf space for other shows/films. The packaging for the Blu-Ray edition is bare bones, the physical discs for example do not feature a color printing of random characters, just the series logo. The lackluster packaging is fine with me to be honest, not a big deal considering the reason for buying this set.
Practical score: 5/5
Aesthetic Score: 2.5/5
“She’s got it where it counts kid”
Content: 12 Blu-ray Discs featuring:
• all 85 episodes of Batman The Animated Series,
• all 24 episodes of The New Batman Adventures,
• 2 animated films Batman: Mask of the Phantasm + Batman & Mr. Freeze: SubZero,
• And other bonus content from the DVD versions. Note: the bonus content is directly from DVD so it is not upgraded, it is still 720p.
Overall this set includes more content than I previously owned, a nice bonus which makes up for the bare bones packaging and adds to the value in terms of bang for the buck.
Video Quality: For this part of the review I will quote Martin Liebman from his review on Blu-Ray dot com:
“Batman: The Complete Animated Series makes its long-anticipated Blu-ray debut in 1080p high definition, framed at its original 1.33:1 (4x3) aspect ratio which preserves the broadcast specifications and presentation parameters as were standard at the time of the show's initial airing. The resultant image, with vertical "black bars" on either side of the 1.78:1 panel, look marvelous, generally, with a few caveats to keep in mind. First, the bad. Speckling and debris are not uncommon. The opening sequence is particularly troublesome in this area, but episodes do reveal a fairly steady, albeit generally light, infestation. Most of the time, though, such do not prove distracting. A little more serious is background banding and compression artifacts. Almost never is this issue more prominent than it is right out of the gate in episode one, beginning with a scene featuring a security guard speaking into a tape recorder only minutes in. Such occurrences can be found in many places, but but not always to the same level of distracting severity. Finally, a few obviously lower resolution shots and scenes are interspersed throughout. They are rare but do make a negative visual impact, particularly if they extend for any length of time. Take a look at the episode "Riddler's Reform." Around the 7- and 9-minute marks are rather extended sequences where the lower resolution is obvious (though still obviously encoded in 1080p), featuring jagged lines, false colors, softer elements, and a more limited color range.
The transfer's good qualities far outweigh the bad. Clarity is tremendous. The animated imagery translates exceptionally well to Blu-ray. The picture is crisp, firm, finely detailed, and richly colored. The clarity and visibility of small details in the animation -- such as costume details, environments, even smudges and signs of wear that reveal the animators' careful, detailed renderings -- come to life on Blu-ray like never before. Character definition is particularly stout, with organic movement and stability to match. Static backgrounds are a joy beyond the occasional banding and macroblocking elements, revealing richly layered and complex renderings with ease. Colors are a standout. The show defaults to a noir-inspired darkness favoring plenty of black and shades of gray and blue (Batman's costume most prominently beyond less dynamically colored Gotham environments and nighttime interiors and exteriors), but colorful costumes worn by characters such as Robin, Joker, Riddler, and Harley Quinn are bold and true, if not a bit lacking in nuance by nature. Brighter scenes additionally handle other colors pleasantly and brightly. Blacks are deep and dense and do border on crush at times, but for the show's style that's preferable to seeing them lifted to gray. The image is not without its issues, but Warner Brothers has done a very good job overall bringing this to Blu-ray.”
Having watched approximately ten episodes of this release so far I can vouch for Martin’s analysis above is spot on. This is what this release is primarily about to me, the most important aspect of the release and it delivers.
Aesthetic Score: 4.5/5
Audio Quality: This release features a two-channel DTS-HD Master Audio soundtrack. Despite the limitations of two channel sound, the sound is exceptional, outstanding, exactly as it should be.
Aesthetic Score: 5/5
Final Thoughts: Overall, despite the lackluster packaging I give this a score of 5/5 based on quality and value.
Many years ago I spent roughly $28 per DVD volume (I purchased them around original release dates) and so even though I am a Batman fan and love this series, I hesitated to spend more on this series, however in my opinion this is definitely worth the upgrade and the HDX digital copies alone will cost more (for the equivalent content) through the various digital providers than the $40-60 for this physical discs plus digital set.
So I hope this information has been useful/helpful to readers thinking about purchasing Batman The Complete Animated Series on Blu-Ray.
As an adult, I have no complaints about the artwork or the voice acting. It is all still top notch, and I lament that some modern shows can't do as good of a job in story telling as a cartoon from my childhood.
It led directly into the Superman cartoon and the later JLA cartoon, which continued almost as strong.
If you want a show with a solid base in story telling in the DC Universe, this is an excellent place to start.
Voice actor Kevin Conroy is the quintessential Batman and Bruce Wayne, while Loren Lester is great as Dick Grayson/Robin, Efrem Zimbalist Jr. is a fantastic Alfred, Bob Hastings gives Commissioner James Gordon just the right amount of wit, and Robert Costanzo is perfect as morally-ambiguous Detective Harvey Bullock. Additional actors include Brock Peters as Lucius Fox, Melissa Gilbert as Barbara Gordon/Batgirl, Diana Muldaur as Dr. Leslie Thompkins, Adam West as Simon Trent, Mark Hamill as the Joker, Arleen Sorkin as Harley Quinn, Paul Williams as the Penguin, Richard Moll as Two-Face, Adrienne Barbeau as Catwoman, Diane Pershing as Poison Ivy, John Glover as the Riddler, Henry Polic II as Scarecrow, Aron Kincaid as Killer Croc, Roddy McDowall as Mad Hatter, David Warner as Ra’s al Ghul, Ron Perlman as Clayface, Michael Ansara as Mr. Freeze, Ed Asner as Roland Daggett, Michael Gross as Lloyd Ventrix, Kate Mulgrew as Red Claw, and many, many more.
The series adapted several classic Batman stories, including “There Is No Hope in Crime Alley,” “The Last Arkham,” “The Laughing Fish,” “Moon of the Wolf,” “Man-Bat Over Vegas,” “Daughter of the Demon,” and more. It helped popularize a more tragic Mr. Freeze and featured the first appearance of Harley Quinn. “Batman: The Animated Series” launched a successful shared animated universe including “Superman: The Animated Series,” “Batman Beyond,” “Static Shock,” “Justice League,” “Justice League Unlimited,” “Gotham Girls,” and possibly the films “Batman and Harley Quinn” and “Justice League vs. the Fatal Five.”
Bonus features on this set include various featurettes, a new featurette about the storytellers, and commentaries on 12 episodes. It’s great that they include the first two movies, but I do wish this set also included the animated film, “Mystery of the Batwoman,” set sometime during or after the third season of the series.

It’s been cleaned up a lot to make it blu-ray format, and not only does it come with all the seasons of Batman, the animated series, but also the animated movies, mask of the phantasm and Batman and Mr. freeze subzero
Price you can’t beat that

La serie animada de Batman es conocida por su estilo de animación único y su narrativa adulta que capturó a una amplia audiencia, tanto niños como adultos, durante su emisión original. Esta edición en Blu-ray ofrece una mejora significativa en la calidad de imagen y sonido en comparación con las versiones anteriores en DVD. Los colores son vibrantes y los detalles se ven nítidos, lo que realmente resalta el impresionante trabajo artístico de la serie.
El set incluye todos los episodios de las cuatro temporadas de la serie, así como las películas animadas "Batman: Mask of the Phantasm" y "Batman & Mr. Freeze: SubZero". Además, se incluyen numerosos extras y material adicional, como documentales, comentarios de los creadores y entrevistas con el elenco y el equipo de producción. Estos contenidos adicionales brindan una visión fascinante del proceso creativo detrás de la serie y profundizan en la influencia duradera que ha tenido en el género de superhéroes.
Aunque el empaque llegó con algunos daños, es importante destacar que el contenido dentro del set no se vio afectado en absoluto. Los discos están en perfectas condiciones y reproducen sin problemas en mi reproductor de Blu-ray. Los menús son fáciles de navegar y la experiencia de ver los episodios y las películas es simplemente increíble.
En general, estoy extremadamente satisfecho con mi compra del set Blu-ray de Batman: La Serie Animada.
