Ep. 175 - Elseworlds - Chill of The Night!

Not as celebrated as the big round numbers, but a milestone nonetheless as the 175th edition of the DCAU Review comes at you in this month of Elseworlds tales, taking a look around the DC Animated Multiverse. This week the Good Brothers return to James Tucker's Batman: The Brave and The Bold series with a review of one of the most loved and celebrated episodes, "Chill of The Night!" Not only does this episode feature writing from Paul Dini, with stories adapted directly from a Bill Finger/Bob Kane helmed comic, but also features a voice cast made up of plenty of DCAU veterans and three different Batmen! Hear a break down of a plot that sees The Phantom Stranger and The Spectre wager on the outcome of Batman's encounter with his parents' killer, visuals ripped directly from panels from Detective Comic #33, another showcase from Mark Hamill's incredible range of vocal performances, a shift in how the Dynamic Music Partners scored this episode differently from the rest of the series and why this might be the best Batman story ever told. Plus lots more in depth discussion and a preview of next week's review on this Giant-Sized edition of the DCAU Review!
