Hardly The Best Collection of Joker Episodes
Honestly, I did not buy this DVD after seeing the episode listing. I already own the complete series' of "Batman: The Animated Series", "The Batman", "Batman Beyond", and "Batman The Brave And The Bold".
The episode selection was very poor indeed. A great example of this being "All Hail The Tornado Tyrant" which ONLY features the Joker in the teaser portion before the theme song starts. Why include a Brave & Bold episode where Joker is only in the teaser instead of say, "Joker the Vile & Villanous" where Joker actually takes over the whole episode! Or the two parter "Deep Cover For Batman" and "Game Over For Owlman" which features Batman teaming up with the Joker in both episodes (although one is an alternate reality Joker as a hero).
We also don't get any Joker episodes from Justice League, and the episodes from Batman Beyond don't even have the Joker at all and could've easily been remedied by using the Batman Beyond movie "Return Of The Joker".
The...
Not so great, but still worth it.
The first disc is amazing. It has a lot of great episodes with the joker. The second disc on the other hand...not so great. A few of the episodes on the second disc don't even have the joker in them! I was very disappointed. Although the second disc was crappy, I would still recommend it. It is worth it for the first disc.
Worth Every Penny
This assortment of episodes are a fantastic gift/purchase for any fan of the Joker, and Batman. I relived my childhood while watching this collection, and will look into purchasing the other Super Villain DVDs
