Y'know, seeing as how nearly every character in BATMAN:TAS has first
been presented in an origin episode (save for those like the Joker,
who have no official original), I really hope they're not going to
betray this trend by having Robin show up next week as if he'd always
been there.

I prefer Batman without Robin anyway.  He takes the edge off, and Bats
is supposed to be edgy and alone.  The only reason Bob Kane invented
Robin in the first place is because the folks at National Comics were
afraid there was no one in the comic the young readers could relate to.

Why would Poison Ivy be in an asylum anyways? The first time she got
caught she got sent to that prison that Harvey Dent got built, and she
never struck me as being insane, just having an obsession with plants. 
The Penguin has an obsession concerning birds, but I thought in the
comics he always simply goes to prison. Likewise, the Scarecrow has
no mental disorders, he uses his fear toxin to commit crimes. 
Two-face is clearly insane, but what exactly is wrong with the Joker? In
the comic book the Joker struck me as being insane because he kills for
no reason at all, he is a homicidal maniac! Yet, in the animated series, I
doubt they will be able to show any of his handiwork! There is a 
difference between a criminal genius and an _insane_ criminal genius!

Well, from a breif scan of the MONDO 2000 interview with Peter Chung, 
he couldn't undertand  the appeal of killer-heroes and such; the 
example he gave was the scene in RAIDERS where Indiana Jones tiredly
pulls out his gun and shoots a menacing swordsman -- and, of course, 
the audience bursts into laughter.

I saw the fil, _Tunes_, in NYC.  It's OK, but not all it could have been. 
If you've seen most of his shorts of the last two years, you've probably
seen most of this film.  Most of those shorts are episodes from the
feature.  Some of it is brilliant; some runs on a bit.  There's a lack of
consistancy, but still well worth seeing.  (There's also a CD of the music
-- the song, Dig My Do, is priceless.)

The most amazing thing is the concept that >one person< could have done
all the animation, from cel washing to camera, by himself.  It shows you
don't have to go to all those lengths the big-timers do to be creative and
entertaining in a feature length...

he's attending college and everything.  He just seemed like a wimp.

Liked  the costume though.  I hope they do better the next time they use him.

  OK, great to see some new material on Liquid Television.  I especially
enjoyed seeing some Drew Friedman material, even though I could swear
I've seen that skit before (possibly in one of my comix).  I also thought
Winter Steele was uncharacteristically good; I like the story, but the
execution usually bugs me for some reason.

  Without going into detail about every skit, could someone shed some
light on the new Aeon Flux (yay!)?  This short episode seemed all-inclusive,
in that the assassin hung herself accidentally at the end.  But the fact
that it was so short, in addition to the clues leading to new sub-plots
(e.g. the heavy equipment vehicle and it's drivers hauling something up
the cliff, the old and new leaders plotting away, etc.) make me wonder if
this isn't just another episode in a cut-up version of the whole.

  Plymptoons were hilarious, as usual.  I'm glad I got to see the whole
"One of those days" and "Your face" again.  I think I'll end up purchasing
the video archive of Bill's material advertised at the beginning of the
show.  Any idea whether new Plymptoons will be shown on MTV?

Ok, I had a question about "Vendetta" for the astute observer among
you.

Maybe a *Spoiler*



Ok, could someone please tell me how Batman found Killer Croc?  Here's
the events as I remember them:

1) Batman analyzes scale as partly human, partly reptillian.
2) Alfred tells him he can heat up the food in the microwavable "crock,"
hence giving Bats the idea that the scale could be a crocodile's.
3) Batman goes to see the Crocks, watches them for a few seconds, and
goes, "Of Course!"
4) Next we see Bats in the Batboat stopping at this underwater cave
where Croc is keeping the crooks.

Excuse me?  Just how did Batman know where Croc was?  Any enlightenment 
would be much appreciated.  Maybe I just blacked out for a minute or
two.  (-:

Do you mean the new season looks wimpy without or the old season looked wimpy
with it? The first one right?

<smoking cigar>

Hm, Lydia is my most hated LTV segment next to the Art School Girls (IMHO) 
Well at least Dog Boy is kinda better (more artistic-trying to be a comic book)
and has snazzy hair, but the LTV guys should realize that actors don't fit in
the show. I am definitely recognizing some of the same voices in the different
segments, hm...I never freeze framed the credits to find out...

And I never totally understood Invisible Hands...or cared that much...:) A PAIR
OF HUMAN EYES! WOW! And of course I love that cutout "bang" when they fire a
gun...whew...
