The New 52 two continuity adaptations a year brought this one down.

I kinda fail to understand why it couldn't be both Tommy Eliot AND somehow fit into their mishmash continuity.

Where's my Batman/The Shadow animated movie? Get the original Dark Knight some recognition and introduce a whole new generation to him.

Yeah I agree.... how would it have impacted or conflicted with the continuity????

I am just trying to think like Warner Bros. animation honestly. We got "Hush" without Hush. Hush is the best character to come out of the Bat corner of the DCU and perhaps the second biggest profile after Damien Wayne.

Comicstorian hates the changes to the actual storyline. If Hush is someone other than Hush, his accomplice The Riddler is the best choice. However, making a twist of those familiar with the story is unnecessary because it denies Tommy Elliott/Hush to properly get exposure.

I also agree about Catwoman having an issue with Batman saving every life no matter what when a key part of who she is is the fact she does not kill. The not able to trust anyone is a part of Bruce's character.

I am surprised he did not mention the lack of Harvey Dent which opened the door to a compelling story. Bruce lost one friend in Tommy and regained one in Harvey. If DC wanted to be edgy there was Heart of Hush to follow up and meld some of Pushback with it as a follow up, but it requires Tommy Elliott to be Hush so DC prevented a solid follow up film with the twist for twist sake. Already knowing that Norman is the dark force in Psycho or knowing that Darth Vadar is Luke's father in Empire Strikes Back does not take away from the films on a follow up viewing.
