Editorial Review:

Product Description:
From Emmy Award-winning-producer Paul Dini and acclaimed designer Chip Kidd comes Batman Animated, the behind-the-scenes story of the hit show that revolutionized television animation and brought a stunning new look to the legendary Caped Crusader. Since its premiere in September 1992, Batman: The Animated Series has been acclaimed by enthusiastic viewers and longtime fans of the Batman character as the defining image of the Dark Knight onscreen.

Now readers are offered an inside look into the creation of the series. Granted unprecedented access to the archives of the Warner Bros. Animation Studio, Chip Kidd has combined breathtaking photographs by Award-winning photographer Geoff Spear and fashioned an imaginative layout of never-before-published preproduction and finished artwork that echoes the boldness of producer-designer Bruce Timm's powerful TV show.

Paul Dini's text offers entertaining and informative commentary on the series history, development, and continuing production. It includes glimpses into the making of the Batman animated features Mask of the Phantasm and SubZero, and a sneak peek into the future projects.

Featuring a detailed episode guide, comments from the series creators and voice actors, and an introduction by Bruce Timm, Batman Animated is a must-have for Batman fans young and old.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Insight to a Classic
Though some information I already knew, I found it to be very informative on the groundbreaking series. To know that guns, breaking glass and child endangerment weren't allowed when the show was on FOX KIDS (though I think each rule was broken at one point or another such as "The Underdwellers") Even the villain Firefly, though not as memorable as Joker or Mr. Freeze, wasn't allowed to be used on FOX because he was a pyromaniac. But on KIDS WB, it was like the flood gates were unleashed because there ...

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - a must have for a batman fan or animation enthusiasts
The book FEATURES character designs , storyboards, layouts, animation samples of the production process of the animated series. It is very informative and educational for anyone interested in learning animation. Also if you are a fan of batman the animated series, you must own this book. I wish there were more books dedicated to other series like justice league unlimited,superman, batman beyond (although it has some brief designs since Batman beyond was very early at the time this book was made)



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Bruce Timm's Batman
What a visially stunning book. Bruce Timm's artwork is sensationally brought to the reader through Chip Kidds fantastic use of photo design. This book thoroughly examines the behind the scene design concepts of Bruce Timm and Paul Dino and company with insightful reading on how they got to create one of TV's best animated series. A valuable piece of work collecting wonderfully laid out illustrations. Highly recommended for the curious and pure fans of the Batman character.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Batman Animated
A very good buy, i was waiting to have this book in my hands for a long time and i finally have it, it's just excellent for those who love the batman animated series and animation. It has a lot of tips and information "behind the scenes" of the series.
very recomendated, the only bad thing is that it was the only book this kind, i'm still waiting for something similar but of justice league and batman beyond.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Must-Have for the B:TAS Fan!
"Batman: The Animated Series" was one of the most revolutionary and influential cartoons ever created. This book, written by B:TAS writer/producer Paul Dini, is an essential look into the creation and phenomenon of the series. While a little slim on actual reading, what is there gives you that most coveted "behind-the-scenes" info on what it took to make "Batman". (For another perspective on the show's creation, check out the "Modern Masters: Bruce Timm" interview book.)
