Ep. 240 - Batman: The Animated Series - A Bullet for Bullock

Tis the Holiday season and the Good Brothers are home for the holidays with a return to Batman: The Animated Series for one last review of an episode in 2022. Sticking with the holiday theme the hosts review the Emmy Award-winning episode "A Bullet For Bullock" that takes place between Christmas and New Years and features a story based on Detective Comics No. 651 by Chuck Dixon. Hear Cal & Liam break down the episode in full, discuss what how effectively the episode paints Detective Bullock as an unsympathetic character despite him being the target of a mysterious hitman. Additionally the hosts talk about an episode that has a darker visual pallet, surprisingly overt references to illegal substances and an antagonist that bears unfortunate resemblance to one of the most notorious criminals in the last decade. Plus an extensive discussion on the Emmy Award-winning music of the episode, the hosts first episode featuring Kevin Conroy since his untimely passing and a preview of the next episode coming on New Year's Eve and much more await on this week's DCAU ReviewBe sure to subscribe to The Podtower on YouTube for more content from the #DCAUReview and other #DCAU content creators like them!Also be sure to subscribe to the DCAU Review on Spotify, Google Podcasts and Apple Podcasts and please consider leaving us a 5-star reviewPlot: Cal: 9/10 – Liam: 9/10Visuals/Animation: Cal: 7/10 – Liam: 8/10Music: Cal: 10/10 – Liam: 10/10Voice Acting: Cal: 10/10 – Liam: 10/10Bonus Point: NoneFinal Tally: Cal: 36/40 – Liam: 37/40
