Batman: The Brave and the Bold, featuring two or more of the super heroes who decide to come together and foil super villains and solve crimes, plays out on television weekly in this animated American series. When Batman teams up with other super heroes life will be safer here on planet Earth. Each show begins with an introduction and the villain and super hero may be introduced for that specific episode. Each episode is split into two parts with an adventure before the theme song is played followed by the main adventure or plot. In this version of the Dark Knight we see a more playful and light hearted hero with occasional reference to the 1960's version of the Batman series thrown in just for fun. Some of the super heroes and villains appearing on episodes of Batman: The Brave and the Bold include Green Lantern, Equinox, Vulture, Elasti-Girl, Wildcat, Riddler, Space Ghost, Crazy Quilt, and the Flash. Vicki Vale makes an occasional appearance as Bruce Wayne's love interest. A light tone for the younger set is common in this series but the subject of death is covered somewhat when the murders of Bruce Wayne's parents, Thomas and Martha Wayne by the evil Joe Chill are retold.
