History Fridge / BATMANTheBraveAndTheBold

** Which means that [[UsefulNotes/TheSilverAgeOfComicBooks Silver Age]] Batman, despite his {{camp}}iness ruining the darkness of Batman, was actually the best and most efficient crimefighter out of the versions. Which also means that UsefulNotes/{{the Bronze Age|OfComicBooks}} and [[UsefulNotes/TheDarkAgeOfComicBooks Dark Age]] actually made Batman less realistic than UsefulNotes/{{the Silver Age|of Comic Books}}.--@/{{Yarrunmace}}

*** Sadly, it all fits the modern era's obsessive iconoclasm that says that failure is more realistic. They dislike the UsefulNotes/{{the Silver Age|of Comic Books}} Batman because they could not bring themselves to accept his high success rate and high mental health.

*** What about his potential imprisonment? Would he have to be gagged 24/7? Would they use that throat-constricting drug that Batman developed in the comics (''ComicBook/JusticeLeagueOfAmericaTowerOfBabel'' in case you were wondering)?

*** Black Canary's [[MakeMeWannaShout signature power]] involves use of her voice. She's also the female ''lead'' for this episode.

* I recently had one of these moments regarding everyone's favorite EnsembleDarkhorse The Music Meister. Setting to spoilers for everyone that hasn't seen his episode yet: [[spoiler: so, in the final music number, we are treated to a montage of his hypnotized victims stealing everything and anything insight; at first, FridgeLogic sets in when you think there's no possible way he could ever need or collect all that is being take. But this is where the Brilliance comes into play: He KNOWS this. After his show stopping number ends, people will be confused and maybe even slightly panicked; meaning that it would take weeks, or even months, to figure out everything that was missing and what was just taken by the hypnotized masses. By that time, the Music Meister could be literally ANYWHERE in the world with whatever he felt he could take without being noticed. [[LargeHam Too subtle for his character you say?]] That leads to another moment of Brilliance; that 'character' is an act! (a performance, if you will). He plays up the camp factor by singing all the time (when vocalizing at the pitch needed to hypnotize people would be enough), wearing ever more extravagant costumes and just being as over the top as possible to hide just how subtle he can be (and possibly because he honestly enjoys it).]] Suddenly; an already epic character seems [[UpToEleven EVEN MORE Awesome]].

*** Sadly, it all fits the modern era's obsessive iconoclasm that says that failure is more realistic. They misliked the UsefulNotes/{{the Silver Age|of Comic Books}} Batman because they could not bring themselves to accept his high success rate and high mental health.

* Possibly unintentional, but in "The Revenge of the Reach," Jaime, ends the fight with The Reach's army of scarabs by overloading the Scarabs with Green energy he got from guy, as he says "There's always Hope." In the comics,the [[Characters/GLBlueLanternCorps Blue Lantern Corps]] represents Hope, and they are at their most powerful when aided by a Green Lantern.

* In the episode featuring the Bat-bots, the prototype is voiced by Adam West. Taken by itself, this is merely a Casting Gag, but I suddenly remembered "The Chill Of The Night" and realized that ''[[CrowningMomentOfHeartwarming Batman gave Proto the voice of his father]].'' --{{Tropers/Crowmagnon}}

*** What about his potential imprisonment? Would he have to be gagged 24/7? Would they use that throat-constricting drug that Batman developed in the comics (''JLA - Tower of Babel'' in case you were wondering)?

*** The ClockKing is the TropeNamer for the trope of the same name. Time is a fundamental element of music.

*** Being an archer, Green Arrow's signature is his use of ''bows'' and ''strings''. The soundtrack recording even starts with his PreAssKickingOneLiner being punctuated by musical stings from the string section.

** The first characters to start singing under the Meister's influence? Black Manta and AQUAMAN, the two guys present with aquatic powers, including a fish-like sensitivity to sound vibrations. Then Grodd, the hyper-intelligent gorilla with PsychicPowers. And then a line from Black Canary, whose [[MakeMeWannaShout signature power]] involves use of her voice. And before the song builds into a segue for the Meister's formal appearance, a line from the ClockKing.[[note]]Time being a key element of music, you see.[[/note]] And you thought the choices of heroes and villains in that scene were random.
** The song begins with a quick sting from the ''string'' instruments, and then a PreAsskickingOneLiner from [[StealthPun Green Arrow.]] For bonus points, both he and the musicians playing that sting are using ''bows.''

* A meta example. In "Chill of the Night," ComicBook/ThePhantomStranger is played by KevinConroy, opposite MarkHamill as ComicBook/TheSpectre.The Spectre continually tries to push Batman over the edge and make him kill Joe Chill, so that he will become a remorseless murderer, while The Stranger knows that Batman will not falter. [[ComicBook/TheKillingJoke In other words, The Joker is trying to give someone "One Bad Day," while Batman knows that his target is better than that]].
