In the latest Return to Gotham, illusiveken breaks down the scariest episodes of BatmanTheAnimatedSeries for the perfect Halloween marathon:
Season 2, Episode 6 starts off with a premise that shouldn’t surprise regular viewers of the show at all: A monstrous plant-creature is menacing rich men in Gotham, leaving them poisoned with some sort of plant-based toxin. Whoever could it be?? But when Batman jumps to the conclusion that Poison Ivy must be involved, Commissioner Gordon informs him that she’s actually reformed and living a tidy little suburban life with a husband and his kids. Batman evidently did not get the wedding invite.
Soon after, Bruce Wayne’s trip to buy some jewelry is interrupted when the store is robbed by some invisible phantom. Batman intervenes, but gets rocked by his unseen foe. The robber, we discover, is the girl’s father, he can turn invisible, and he isn’t going to let his estranged wife and daughter escape him under any circumstances.episode, the kind of self-contained story that feels like a mini Batman movie.
We open on Wayne Manor under siege by Commissioner Gordon and the Gotham PD. Batman, Robin and Nightwing all manage to escape via boat, and Batman gets Nightwing up to speed on how they got there: In the course of foiling a plot by Scarecrow, Batgirl is killed. It is a harrowing scene: Thrown from a building, Batgirl lands on the hood of her own father’s squad car. We get the view from theof the car, something the creators mentioned as a means of taming the scene for the censors.
It was all a dream, of course. How could it not be? Yet it also ends with a sly moment between Gordon and his daughter, one in which the old cop seems to imply that he knows more about her night life than he lets on. The final season ofwasn’t as well-animated, and ditched some of the aesthetic that made the show famous, but it still dropped some of the most intensely written episodes of the whole run. “Over the Edge” was one of them.
