In this segment of Pulp Vision's Saturday Morning Ghosts, let's head into the Batcave to explore the unforgettable world of Filmation’s Batman cartoons! This video compares two very different takes on the Caped Crusader from the same studio:
In 1968 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=typ5X63z4q4), Batman was more action-packed, and faithful to the Silver Age comics. By 1977 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CiwWkdcZCZU), everything changed — Adam West and Burt Ward returned to voice their iconic roles, the violence was heavily toned down, and the chaotic fan-favorite Bat-Mite (the character that inspired Orko) was added to the mix.
From semi-serious superhero action to campy nostalgia — this is the definitive comparison of Filmation’s Batman legacy.
If you grew up with Saturday morning cartoons, this one’s for you!
