Below is a screengrab from The Demon Reborn. Looks like they were already thinking of tweaking the bat-ears...

OR maybe the animators were really drunk... :)

Seriously Batman did have huge ears in that ep. I remember many ppl complained about it.

It was on both ends of the sprectrum on that episode. Some scenes he looked chunky, others he looked really thin. One seen his ears would be normal, and then they'd be these huge poles. It was ridiculous!

I thought Bats was looking his best in that episode! The animation was awesome, especially when he was beating the crap out of those guys in the hanger (the breaking of the arm). I liked that long eared look and glad they're using it in JL...

that episode was animated quite bad, in my opinion. the perfect example is the scene w/ bats and lois. just take a loo at that scene, its animated horribly, and the rest isnt much better. that episode, imo, as i've repededly stated, is overall the worst episode i've ever seen (well, if you twisted my arm id be tied w/ the likes of moon of the wolf and superman's pal).

but speaking of long batman ears, anyone pick up the latest action comics?? seems to be another new artist onboard, and his take on batman has very long jl-ish ears. i'd post a pic, but sadly i dont know how to, and i dont have a scanner anyway. peace.

The episode isn't the worst, in my opion. There are both worse Batman episdoes (Moon of the Wolf) and Superman (Superman's Pal) episodes. The episode needed to be 2 part slike originally planned.

That episode was so disappointing for me, animation-wise. It seemed as though the animation was done last second by 3rd graders. The plot was interesting, but the overall story was brought done by the animation. Bats ears were tall and skinny, short and stubby, Batman himself was all different sizes (bulky, then skinny), and Superman was never the same size twice. Look at the screen grab...unless Supes is standing a few feet behind Batman, the sizes are all wrong. Guess I can't have everything I would like to have.

seriously, i was really let down w/ this ep. the animation was like almost the worst its been in the whole nb/sa time, and it had all the possibilities to be sooooo awesome. and what the hell, the dialogue was so campy, look at the scene w/ lois and bruce. i couldnt believe how campy it was. plus lois is drawn horribly there, shes all out of proportion. the whole episode was just so weird because you wanted to love it, i mean, batman, superman, and ras al goul. but it was written so badly, like imo, on par w/ moon of the wolf and superman's pal. and yeah, bats ears changed alot through the ep.

oh well, i guess a really bad episode was bound to happen, i was just so dissapointed it had to be an ep w/ ras and superman. but its all good, stas/tnsa was the s$#@#$. i get so emotional. peace.
