Most adaptations contribute or popularize at least one character.

The Batman revitalized Wrath and created his sidekick, Scorn.

Brave and the Bold created Music Meister and popularized Jaime Reyes's Blue Beetle. Also, it started the trend of short hair, bearded Aquaman.

YJ created Kaldur'ahm/Jackson Hyde/Aqualad and Artemis Crock was revamped to look like her animated version, if only for Lobdell to kill her right away.

GL:TAS introduced the Interceptor, but it hasn't been used during the Nu52 or Rebirth. Aya also showed up in the Smallville comics, but that's it's own canon.

Beware the Batman revitalized Magpie, with her design in the show now carrying through most of her appearances. Pyg is also more well-known, though the comic book version is much preferred.

the teen titans cartoon revitalized/repopularized cyborg, raven, starfire, beast boy & deathstroke while at the same time (save for deathstroke) ended up becoming the definitive versions of the characters for a lot of people
>>
>>92970567
Johns' Teen Titans started at the same time as teh cartoon and also had the original cast (+ some others)
>>
>>92969963
Just because you're negative doesn't make you interesting, anon. Shut the fuck up with your wet blanket opinions.
>>
>>92970567
Yes but that was for the worst.

Now Raven and Beast Boy literally cannot leave Teen Titans, and all people do is insinuate Cyborg was a good character when on Teen Titans when he wasn't even good there.
>>
>>92969493
Wait, so Rorschach's grapple gun predates Batman's by three years?

Why did he have one if no prominent "real" superhero had one at the time?
>>
>>92970935
you also forgot that starfire can't be anything but a bubbly & ditzy alien girl who speaks broken english

i never got why TT was so special in that fans cano only accept the character if they're a 1:1 recreation of the cartoon?

>and all people do is insinuate Cyborg was a good character when on Teen Titans when he wasn't even good there.

being fair even in the comics cyborg probably had the more interesting backstory of the group compared to starfire (an enslaved alien princess) raven ( the daughter of NOT satan) robin & beast boy (former sidekicks)

Clayface is popular? I always thought he was woefully underrated.
>>
>>92972197
He started showing up in a lot more shit after BTAS. Before then writers kept hopping back and forth between various clayfaces and interpretations. After BTAS created a sort of amalgam of all the different characters, that's what Karlo became (yes I know that technically happened in Mud Pack a few years prior, but that story ended with him being sent to the Earth's core and he looked decidedly different from what we know as the "normal" Clayface today, which is the one Timm drew)

BTAS and the DCAU are more important to Batman than most of the print material, probably, never mind the vastly inferior prior and successor cartoons.

They've been treating him like shit ever since he didn't like what the did with the Arkham City DLC with Harley.

The animated show rode the coat tails of the crazy succesful Burton movie anf borrowed heavily from it .

And Dark Knight gave us dark brooding Batman before that.

Anon a 90's kid was someone that grew up in the 90s. Simple as that. Batman Beyond started 1999 and final episode was in 2001, most people didn't see it till post 2000. if you stretch your argument to that then it undoes the comment made in >>92973626 because in the early 00s there were a dozen shows that created that lasting nostalgia (Samurai Jack, Invader Zim, etc) so either way you place that goal post, it's fucking stupid as hell to think it doesn't get recognition because nobody cares about this or that generation nostalgia. The truth is simpler then that: Beyond was a serious departure from the original themes and places of the original idea and nothing will over out shadow Bruce Wayne Batman. It was great and well written, but most people regardless of generation if given the choice between more modern Batman Stories and Beyond Stories, they will always pick modern Batman.

I would say Dark Knight Returns from 1986 did the most, it introduced so many concepts that became just generally accepted afterwards for the character, like how it isn't Bruce Wayne dressing up as Batman, it's Batman dressing up as Bruce Wayne, Joker's sick relationship with the Batman, and flirting with the idea that the hero is just as deranged as the villains
>>
>>92974454
Which was cut down to 10 episodes instead of 13 like every other season got, had an episode pre-empted by fucking Reddit and Memey, and really is the only example of a true 00s cartoon revival I can think of in any case.

Yeah. But wasn't a lot of how Gwen's personality in recent years kinda based on how she was in Spectacular or The Amazing Spiderman (a Nerdy Smart Girl Next Door type)?

Before that wasn't Gwen just kind of a Ditzy Bombshell who really got around?
>>
>>92974703
Both are pretty good ways to take Batman's character. A person so consumed by his secret life that going back to a ordinary life seems impossible and a man trying to do good in the world while in the shadows and in the public.

>>92974805
I think she was just a nice girl that Peter hooked up with, which ended up getting her killed cause the writers thought she was boring and that MJ was more interesting.

>>92974805
She was a big "nerd" in Ultimate Spider-man comics. That said her personality has always been shallow and until Spider Gwen the goal even in SSM was that she was to die.

>Dini is the one who "came up" with the Mister Freeze Nora tragedy

He completely stole it from another ice-themed Batman villain, Cryonic Man. Nobody knows Cryonic now since his traits were all given to Freeze.

For any character ? The Superman radio show beats it as explained by this anon >>92967804
But for Batman specifically TAS is the most influential adaptation.
Although I'd argue that the Tim Burton movies had a very sizeable influence on the character (especially since they influenced several aspects of TAS)

>>92975157
There's the Writer's Bible which goes into a lot of the concepts that went into the show and even some unused ideas.

God can you imagine if the Nolan films has as much influence as this or even the Burton movies?

>>92976010
Indeed he did. He probably chose Freeze, though, because he's more directly linked to Batman and is more known due to the 60's show.

>Cryonic Man

You mean the character that existed for literally less than 2 issues of Suicide Squad and then died? Gee I wonder why they wouldn't go with him

>>92976562
I get why they used Freeze, but you're acting like pulling characters from obscurity is impossible.

Also, he was from Outsiders.

It was passable, but now it's a product of its time and coming off BTAS, it's a bit grating. It shows just how much KidsWB! fell off, especially with their faggy censorship when the fourth season of BTAS allowed them to get away with way more than they could on Fox. That said, some of the redesigns were on-par with S4. Selena/Catwoman got hit hard, though Penguin was an improvement.

My favorite Batman Villain. They did such a great job with him and many of the others.
They made Batman not realistic but more... I want to say theatrical.

I believe this movie also revitalized the image of the Batmobile in the minds of the public.

>>92967862
Stop with this myth. By the time they did that radio show, membership of the Klan had declined to the tens of thousands by that time. The only reason it got so big was because the Klan of the 20s was focused more hating against the recent wave of Catholic immigrants in what was, mainly, a Protestant nation. There were also large economic factors in play since a lot of those immigrants were moving into cities and doing the same jobs others had been doing for lower wages which forced those people to move, mainly into the upper midwest which is why Klan membership was so great in places like Indiana and Michigan. Likewise big among Swedish immigrants since Swedes were Protestant. It was only in the South where they really glommed onto the nigger hatin' and as soon as the Depression hit, Klan membership pretty much plummeted off a cliff within two or three years.

There's a reason the initial Klan (made to terrorize Republicans/blacks) died quickly and the third/current Klan (mainly just white trash and FBI moles) is a joke with like 5000 members. They're propped up though by people (the SPLC especially) who have an agenda to push the idea of white bigotry lurking around every corner

But no, the Superman radio show did not "kill" the Klan. If it had any effect it's more equivalent to seeing a mortally wounded man on the side of the road and kicking him a few times for good measure.

The original 1940's Superman cartoon is also notable for introducing Superman's most iconic power after his invincibility and strength, his ability to fly.
It also served as a major inspiration for the art direction of the DCAU.
>>
>>92973565
Beyond, by its nature as a story that takes place in a possible future, simply can't become a major part of the DC universe. Besides, what makes Terry so interesting is the setting that he's been placed in. Just ripping his character out of the future and placing him in modern Gothem would be jarring.
>>
>>92979191
>Detective Yin
Still mad that she vanished in the later seasons. I know the voice actress left, but just hire someone else! It was stuff like Yin that made the show feel unique, without these it started to feel like BTAS 2.0

He's talking about American standards. There's a reason the Hollywood age of consent is almost universally 18.
>>
>>92972166
No it's not
>>
>>92967563
it did more than that, it also helped real-life police.

During the episode of Scarface's first apperance, you get shown how his shirt gets ripped open, and his tattoo is shown. Batman uses this to check a register of various criminals that has tattoos, and finds Rhino.
This was implemented in ways after that episode into law-enforcement.

Batman actually helped fight crime in real life.

BtAS is better, but there is nothing wrong with The Batman show either.

You know the whole tragic Mr. Freeze story where he's just trying to save his wife Nora from an incurable disease? That was completely made up for BTAS. Before that he was just some guy running around with an ice gun and was basically a D list villain.
>>
>>92973152
Lets be honest, the quality of Dini's writing has significantly gone down in the last 15 years.

His JLU episodes were forgettable and the first two Arkham games have very weak scripts, especially City.
>>
>>92996271
Not only that, but in the comics, he was maybe murdered by the Joker years before and no one really gave a shit.

Wait really? Huh.
>>
>>92996973
Yeah. The radio show was done live but the VA for Supes wanted a vacation. So they invented kryptonite so a temporary VA would just have to make groaning in pain sounds for a few episodes.
