I always hated how Catman sorta stole Killer Moth's schtick. The idea of a inverse Batman is one I always thought was cool and I thought the initial concept of Killer Moth had the right idea: A villain who specialized in saving the lowlifes, minions and hoodlums' of Gotham. If Batman came in the knick of time when someone was endangered, Killer Moth was meant to assist any thug that was going to be pinched. But with Catman and Owlman it seems like that initial idea of Killer Moth was pushed to the wayside.

I'd like to point out I actually appreciate how they designed the sabertooth featured in the episode. Smilodon fatalis was built more like a bear than a typical cat, and this thing had a pretty stocky body even if it was still more traditionally feline as we know it. Then again since Blake states they genetically engineered the cat it more than likely is similar to Jurassic World's Indonimous Rex in that it has multiple different felines with only enough original smilodon DNA to account for the signature saber teeth.

I would like to point out that the yellow-and-orange version of Catman *did* make a cameo appearance in the final season of _Justice League Unlimited_ as a fighter in Roulette's rebooted Meta-Brawl, after -the Legion of Doom- Grodd's Secret Society recruited pretty much every villain worth paying to watch fight. He's only on screen for a few seconds, but he did show up; pretty sure he wasn't supposed to be Blake, however.

I'd like to say also here that the Serum Lake videos/vignettes about Batman The Animated show and the Batman Animated villian show and character biographies were all really top-notch, and consistently introspective and amusing. From the lesser known characters (like Lock-Up and Baby Doll) to the perennial favorites like Riddler and MrFreeze. I also agree with Serum Lake that Two-Face and Clay-Face were the two most comelling villain characters depicted, but, also, that pretty much most of the characters were storied and designed superbly. This video-lauge was consistently put togeather very well, and the best Batman videos put to youtube BY FAR! So, cheers!

The reason you didn't include another Catman from the Justice League cartoon is not only that he's not a villain, but also a cheap replacement for Wildcat (who didn't appear until Unlimited). Also, a combination of the Silver Age Batman. And the irony is that his real name is actually Thomas Blake !

There’s also a Catman in Batman the brave and bold animated series though not mentioned by name, Bruce disguised himself as a criminal with the birds of prey to intercept the auction of a cloak that grants the wearer nine lives. But accidentally Bruce lost his memory of being the Batman and bought into his criminal cover. So he took on crimes with escape plans that killed him multiple times if not for the cloak. That version seems to be a mashup of the previous more light hearted iterations of Catman

While its not from DCAU a comic based on Brave and Bold cartoon they introduced Catman as fake vigilante who teams up with Batman to take down bunch of Gotham villains. Batman didnt mind help, but he was suspicious. Catman lacked detective skills yet he kept showing up at same places as him. In the end Batman reveals that Catman played hero to weed out competition and collect the loot from criminals beaten by him and Batman. Comic ended on fight in a blimp, where Catman's blimp was on collision course with building. Catman realizes that he is going to kill someone he pushes Batman out of blimp and redirects it into water as he was here only for money and not to kill someone. He was assumed dead, but truth is that he wasnt as we see him in show.

Sure, children may throw trash and food at its mouth, so maybe put something to keep it from the gearbox, but Catman has some incredible mechanical skill. He just needs some serious brain medicine to get his obsession off of Batman, Batwoman, Catwoman, Ratman, Ratwoman, and Pat Woeman, who lives down the street.

You mentioned my favorite Catman: Bruce! The issue where Robin finds him is the only DCAU comic I ever owned as a kid. I always wished it could have been adapted to the show. There's a fantastically bittersweet moment where Catwoman refuses to see his face under the mask, despite him actively trying to be candid with her. She tells him it's for plausible deniability, but the audience knows Selina feels guilty for manipulating him. And by the time I learned who Thomas Blake was, he was a letdown by comparison. It certainly is a fascinating evolution of the Catman concept though, from villain to amnesia-Bruce. Your video essay was a marvelous look at the character. Since you're about to discuss favorite villains, this seems a good segue for a #TotallySchwayPodcast question! Catman has always been an anti-Batman in some way. Who do you think are the most interesting evil counterparts to Batman? He has more than perhaps any other superhero, even Superman or the Power Rangers (and they get at least one doppelganger team per season). I'm personally fond the Owlman seen in the 'Crisis on Two Earths' movie, voiced by James Woods of all people. It's a powerful take on a nihilistic villain. But Killer Moth is often forgotten. He used to have a signal in the sky, summoned by criminals to save them from Batman or the police. It's a silly idea, but I think a villain THAT dedicated to crime and foiling justice has a lot of unused potential.

An important part left out is that DC based their Cat-Man a superhero from another comic book company that had gone out of business, and thus their characters fell into the public domain. So anyone is free to use the brightly colored version that is a superhero with nine lives. The elements that DC owns are the alter ego of Thomas Blake and his backstory, and changing him into a criminal. Austin McConnell did a video about the public domain version of the character... kzbin.info/www/bejne/a3bSdKuBnLyoftU He then later created his own animated Cat-Man pilot. He plans to create a cinematic universe of public domain characters.

I feel the original Catman was yellow and orange to be Opposite to Batman’s colors, rather than orange tabby color. Batwoman’s costume is similarly yellow/gray red/blue.

Not only is this adaptation less interesting than his initial comics counterpart, it also fails to be more interesting than the non-DC versions of Catman. Seriously, with so many versions, the original Golden Age one, the campy DC one, Marvel, etc., how do you mess it up? The episode wasn't terrible, but he was very lackluster, which doesn't seem like it should be possible.

It's a shame that no one past Gail Simone has done anything interesting with the character. She definitely catapulted [haha] him into being one of my favorites. I'm just happy whenever Thomas shows up in anything, honestly.

Before speaking of the first DC comics CatMan, you should have spocken of the very first CatMan, ca caracter made during the Golden Age, made by an editor that had long gone bankrupt when the first DC one was made, and has since fallen into public domain. Of, and if my memories are right, he also had a brown and yellow costume.

When the later comics do the character better than BTAS, that's worthy of an eyebrow raise.

Cult of the Cat was a good Catwoman episode but the dcau version of Thomas Blake was pretty bland. The henchwoman was more memorable. Unlike the dcau, the Catman from the Secret Six was far more memorable and badass. I can not wait to hear you talk about see no evil next week. It is a very disturbing episode and feel.very relevant today.

And it did end up having a spiritual successor in the form of The Invisible Man 2020. Bonus since the protagonist there is played by the same actress as Lloyd Ventrix's daughter in the episode... time sure has flown fast.

Say what you will about the campy, "Nine Lives Cape" They gave him in the comics, I think the concept of a villain who, despite being human, can effective utilize normally lethal forms of escape would be interesting. Their defeat could simply be them losing track of how many lives they have left. "See ya later, Batman! I'll happily trade one of my nine lives to get away from you!" "Catman, you've already used up all nine!" "What!?" And then he dies in a firey explosion or something.
