The Batman finale: Lost Heroes

I just received this info from KidsWB! regarding the special ‘movie length’ series finale to The Batman.

Looks like the alien menace that brought this version of the Justice League together has returned!

“The Batman” closes its fifth and final season with “The Batman: Lost
Heroes” at 11:00 a.m. ET/PT. In the special TV movie, the most
powerful members of the Justice League are abducted one-by-one.
Batman, Robin and Green Arrow discover the mystery surrounding their
disappearance – The Joining has returned with some earthly villainous
assistance, and has transferred the Justice League powers into alien
androids. It’s up to Batman, Robin and Green Arrow to help their JL
friends regain their powers and prevent an alien invasion. The
one-hour special includes appearances by Green Lantern, Hawkman,
Flash, Superman, Green Arrow, Toyman, Mirror Master, Dr. Hugo Strange and The Joining. The film is written by Stan Berkowitz and Alexx Van Dyne, and directed by John Fang and Vinton Heuck.

I’m very sad to see this program go, but it has accomplished so much in such a short amount of time. In five years, The Batman has re-introduced the Rogues Gallery, a new and much more youthful Robin, Batgirl and as a hat trick the entire Justice League of America.

A series that has gone unnoticed by some Batman fans, The Batman has come under fire for not being the Bruce Timm Batman The Animated Series. It’s unfortunate that some comic book fans have avoided this excellent award winning program for such a silly reason because it’s really very good. Hopefully those reluctant to watch the series on TV will catch it on DVD.
