      @@slik_sean6346 I don't know what you're talking about. Do you mean the episode Epilogue? It has nothing to do with Return of the Joker. Ms. Martian takes Tim's form in JL vs the Fatal Five which means he's still active. Harley also appears in that movie which means the flashback scenes in Return of the Joker can't have taken place yet. This is why it shouldn't be canon, because it fits so poorly into the rest of the canon. Tim goes missing for weeks, Batman has dozens of heroes he could call on to help him but he doesn't call any of them. Like dude, I'm pretty sure one of your magic friends or Flash or Superman could find Tim pretty quickly. Tim was also a member of some version of the Titans bit none of them seen to care about their teammate going missing. Instead he calls on Barbara who hasn't even been active as Batgirl since the New Batman Adventures. The last time we saw her she hung up her cape and went off to school in Mystery of The Batwoman so it seems highly unlikely that the whole scenario could have played out the way it did. It just makes no sense in the larger canon.

    1) A Riddler story about him abducting a kid (and rigging him with explosives!). This one has actual detective work and riddles.
    2) A Mr. Freeze story about Mr. Freeze bringing a new ice age to Gotham City in order to bring Ice Age animals (like the mammoth and sabre-tooth) back to life.
    3) A Mad Hatter story about him trying to take control of Gotham City with hats and gas. Alice is mind-controlled in this one.

    Also, holy crap, I just noticed that James has the awesome JL snowglobe as a part of the new background display! I was really ready to shell out the money for that this past Christmas season, but forgot. Those things are super rare, but, if anyone is going to have one, it may as well be James!

    Funnily enough, I think the Gorilla Grodd episodes were some of the only JL episodes I DID have on tape. I think Cartoon Network had a Justice League marathon once, so I just filled up a tape with as many episodes as I could.
    Also, Zeta fans are even worse off in Australia. We still haven't got a DVD release here! It and Static Shock are the only two DCAU shows we can't get. A few years ago they finally released Batman Beyond on Blu-Ray here, so I thought that maybe we'd finally get Zeta, but nope! 😣That show was my first experience with the pain of having a beloved show cancelled.

    7:47 simple for season 3 combine it with something so messed up and dark that you’d have to give zeta guns because everything makes the idea of “oh no that’s a gun in a kid’s show” look tame by comparison.

    Random comment, the JLU episode "Flash and Substance" made me want a Flash series once (Might have been fun). I also once thought a Green Lantern show would have been fun, similar to the one we later got in CGI form more or less.
    Oh well, the road not taken. Great video by the way!!!

We also have a podcast going called "Jump on the Bat-Wagon" where I'm taking my buddy Brian through the entire DCAU from start to finish in airdate order, so he can experience it like kids did in the '90s (which he was around for but never watched the DCAU).

    I know it's a big ask, as it's sure to be a tedious endeavor to play them, but I think it would make for a great video if you went through all the DCAU flash games and try to will 'em (dafoe) canon. If those BK comics can be canon, slag it, so can these!
