The DC Kids YouTube channel has posted a video from “Superman: The Animated Series”.
Superman and Batman cross paths while hunting the Joker in Metropolis, but will their encounter be friendly?
This is taken from the 3-part episode titled “World’s Finest,” which made up episodes 16-18 of the second season of “Superman: The Animated Series,” which first aired on October 4, 1997.
Gotta love it when TMS is handling the animation. I like this episode but I always thought Batman being able to flip Superman was a bit silly. Still, not the most egregious example of Bat-Bias the DCAU would give us.
I also chuckle a bit at the “vigilantism” line. Is there any instance or mention in the series about Superman being deputized or anything like that? I guess it’s implied since he works with Maggie but I don’t recall anything official.
