Episode 70: Batman The Animated Series Robin's Reckoning, The Laughing Fish and Movie Swap (The King's Speech, The Rocketeer)

Welcome to The Uncaped Crusaders Review! This is a podcast where Mark and Ian discuss (and rant) about all things Batman!

Batman: The Animated Series provided us with a near perfect telling of Robin's origin story in Robin's Reckoning (Part 1 and 2). It utilizes an amazing use of flashbacks to you Dick Grayson in the circus to the death of his parents at the hands of Tony Zucco to his moving in with Bruce Wayne. It won a Emmy for it's efforts as well and we try and do it justice in this episode. We also cover the classic Joker episode The Laughing Fish. This has one of the most hair-brained and insane plots in the history of the Joker where he poisons all the fish in Gotham to have his Joker grin and then tries to copyright them.

For Movie Swap Mark watched the 90s Disney cult classic The Rocketeer and Ian watched the 2011 Best Picture winner The King's Speech. WARNING THERE IS STRONG LANGUAGE DURING THIS SEGMENT.
