Batman Beyond Season Three/Teen Titans season three DVD Art

http://teentitans.toonzone.net/tt/re...hree/cover.jpg So here we are, the final season of Batman Beyond (which has some of the best and most overlooked episodes in the series history at times, people love "The Call" so dang much but rarely do I see praise go to the true masterpeice of the season, "Out Of The Past,", an excellent epilouge to Bruce's war with Ra's Al Ghual complete with the ultimate tragic ending. Why it was'nt aired as the finale rather than the abysmal "Unmasked", I will never know) And then you have the third season of Titans, or "the one without Slade", general consensus in the fandoms for this series label any season without the primary adversary as a waste of time, and some of the episodes really don't help much ("Bethroned" is a royal pain in the butt for long term Marv Wolfman fans like myself, because it takes one of the most emotional Titans storylines, and ends Starfire's relationship with Dick, and turns it into a filler episode that means nothing, it's all self-contained), not to mention Slade's replacement "Brother Blood" was poorly underdeveloped and did'nt stay true to his character for obvious PTC reasons. That being said, the third season contains some of the best episodes at the same time, "Haunted" is a great reminder of how grim the show can be, "Bunny Raven" is comedic Teen Titans at it's best, and the emotional "Spellbound" and "The Beast Within" are great for BB/Raven 'shippers as their relationship becomes stronger, leading to an unforgettable final scene in "Spellbound" that sort of proves that had Murakami had not been so stubborn in what timeline he was adapting, Slack would have went all the way with them. Indeed his final regular Titans episode had the same ending only the other way around, and the two act like a nagging married couple in the Tokyo movie. One can only wonder how things would have been if Slack had been in complete charge |
