open/close all folders Batman  The quick-thinking straight man in the action-packed and often hilarious world of The Brave and the Bold, Batman is relentless in his pursuit of justice and infinitely patient in his dealings with quirky guest stars and sidekicks. This Batman isn't the brooding Dark Knight we've come to know in recent years but is equally fast with a dry joke or a flying Batarang.
Special Guest Heroes  An Asian-American scientist whose costume allows him to shrink himself (and others) down in size, up to microscopic size. In the comics he's a Legacy Character, having inherited the costume from the previous wearer, Ray Palmer. He's the type to solve everything by thinking first, but at least once lost his composure and went into an Unstoppable Rage.
Aqualad  AQUAMAN's fun to be around isn't he? Trying having to work with him on a full time basis. Aqualad is the sidekick to the king of the seas, and doesn't get the respect he deserves.
 Both valiant and vainglorious, AQUAMAN is the barrel-chested King of Atlantis and, in his own eyes, is as heroic as they come. Fearless and loyal, AQUAMAN is the first to answer when duty calls, and he relishes the glory of the fight. He has the disposition of a hearty Greek God and the ego and brawn to match.
Batman of Zur-En-Arrh  Tlano is a reporter of the Solar Cycle on the planet Zur-En-Arrh. He is also that world's version of Batman. He wears a Batman costume consisting of gaudy, outlandish colors.
Bat-Mite  A creature from the Fifth Dimension, he is Batman's biggest fan. He kidnaps him to shape him into a better hero. Some of this includes figuring out which villain to fight Batman, spicing up the fire-power of the bank robbers and Calendar Man, and even toying with Batman.
 Black Canary is a superheroine with hand-to-hand combat prowess and a supersonic scream. She appears in most prominently in th the episode "Mayhem of the Music Meister!"
 El Paso, Texas native Jaime Reyes thought the closest he would ever get to Batman was the posters adorning his walls, but when a mysterious alien technology device turned him into the hero Blue Beetle, the fanboy's wildest dreams became a reality. Jaime can't help but tackle every mission with wide-eyed wonder and brings a youthful buoyancy to even the toughest fights.
Blue Beetle (Ted Kord) Before Jaime Reyes, Ted Kord was the second man who assumed the name of Blue Beetle becoming the major hero of Hub City. Unlike Jaime, Ted had no acess to the power of the Blue Scarab, but in the other hand he could create useful gadgets based in the technology of the Scarab to combat crime. Considered by Batman and Booster Gold as their best friend, Kord perished in a mission which he prevented his megalomaniac uncle to dominate the world. Alongside Batman, Jaime considers Ted as a big influence to he become a superhero himself.
 A mere janitor in The Future, Booster Gold was clever enough to know that technology that was commonplace in his home era would be enough to make him superhuman in the bygone times of the 21st century. So he stole a strength-enhancing flight suit and a Robot Buddy named Skeets, and headed into the past with the express intention of making boatloads of money as a famous superhero. It hasn't quite worked out that way, as he doesn't seem to realize that you have to do actual heroing to become a famous superhero. Note this is different from his comic book origins, where despite being a glory hound he's still a good hero.
Bronze Tiger  Although he studied combat at the same remote Eastern temple as Batman, Bronze Tiger never finished his martial-arts training, walking out of the temple in frustration with their master. Nowadays he makes a living as a champion martial artist, with all the ego you'd expect from someone who hasn't lost a fight in years.B'wana Beast Masked wrestler who gained superpowers from exposure to toxic waste, he became an eccentric but self-doubting hero. His power to merge two animals into one being was strange even by the show's standards (and became a major plot point in the Starro story.) Had a romantic relationship with African superheroine Vixen. Sadly he died saving the world.
 Ten year old Billy Batson was chosen by the wizard Shazam to wield his power to defend the world from evil. By speaking the wizard's name Billy is transformed by a bolt of magical lightning into the adult superhero Captain Marvel, the World's Mightiest Mortal. Batman, sympathetic to Billy due to their similar origins (both were orphaned at a young age), helped reunite Billy with his sister. Captain Marvel has also helped Batman out on several cases, most notably against Starro and the Faceless Hunter. Recently joined the Justice League International.
 Magic-using hero, servant of the Lords of Order. His personal teacher was Lord Nabu. Lives in an invisible tower that can only be entered by magic. His symbol is the ankh, the Egyptian symbol of life. Batman taught him boxing.
Fire  Fire is a Brazilian superheroine with the ability to shoot fire, and ally to Batman. Fire helps Batman and Plastic Man when Gentleman Ghost robs a bank in Mexico City during the Day of the Dead celebration. She is later invited by Batman to join his new League.
The Flash - Barry Allen The resident hero of Central City, also known as the Scarlet Speedster, Barry Allen gained his ability to run at incredible super-speed after a lightning bolt struck a shelf of chemicals in his laboratory at the local police department late one night. Now the Fastest man Alive, he donned his famous scarlet costume to combat crime.
The Flash - Jay Garrick One of the oldest heroes around. Jay Garrick is the original Flash and was a member of the Justice Society with Wild Cat. The expert marksman is as dedicated to competition as Batman is to the preservation of justice. Green Arrow never misses a chance to one-up his DC Super Hero compatriots (though never at the expense of the mission) and gets great pleasure out of stoking the fires of his perpetual rivalry with Batman. After all, it just makes them better heroes, right?
Green Lantern - G'Nort  He, Sinestro, and Guy Gardner call Batman to space to help track down many Green Lanterns who are missing in action after a battle with Despero. His backstory is the same as originally presented in the comics, as Sinestro mentions G'nort's uncle had "pushed" him through Lantern training. He later proves vital for helping Batman stop the brainwashed Mogo. After Batman compliments him twice and helps G'nort earn the respect of the Corps, he jumps into his arms to lick him, only to get a reprimand ("No licking."). It is also shown that he cannot fully memorize the Green Lantern motto and was only able to do so by reading it form a "cheat sheet" he had written on his left wrist. Even with this "cheat sheet", his lack of intelligence is shown; he misspells many of the words, including "Green".Green Lantern - Guy Gardner  Guy Gardner is the hot-headed member of the Green Lantern Corps. His antics caused a K'Vellian prisoner to go on a path of destructive rage, but thanks to Batman, the prisoner was stopped and he has Guy clean up the mess it made. He reappears in "The Eyes of Despero" to help Batman overthrow the alien dictator Despero. He, Sinestro, and Gnort create a Bat-armor for the job upon him requesting that he come along. When he sees Sinestro attempting to blow up a rogue Mogo, they do battle, with Guy winning.
 The Huntress is a masked vigilante, and ally of Batman. She first appears in "Night of the Huntress!", where she helps Batman and Blue Beetle III battle Baby Face. Her civilian identity is Prof. Helena Bertinelli, a teacher at Gotham City University.
 Reformed petty thief Eel O'Brian got a second lease on life as a flexible former felon working at Batman's side. The rubbery shape-shifter is part one-man comedy show, part malleable merchant of justice, doling out wisecracks and hard knocks with haphazard glee. And while the call of cash still rings in his ears, the little Batman on his shoulder yells much louder.
 An endless conundrum of a person, the Question hides his identity from the world but never his inquiries. He's quick to find the conspiracy in even the most minute of things.
 John Ulthoon lives in a suburban neighborhood, wears his slippers and robe when picking up the morning paper, and has a respectable job as the Professor of Archeology at the local community college. He's also a robot. His suburban veneer, of course, is a cover for his hero alter ego as Red Tornado. In Batman, he sees not only a partner, but also someone who can teach him more about humanity, of which he strives to both understand and be a part.
Robin/Nightwing  Boy Wonder no more, Robin has struck out on his own as defender of the city of Blüdhaven. Although he's become a successful crime-fighter in his own right, Dick Grayson still chafes at the memory of taking orders from Batman, and will take any opportunity to prove himself an equal to his old mentor.
 Adam Strange is a human space adventurer who defends the planet Rann. He is married to Alanna, a native of the planet. He asks Batman and Aquaman for help in "Mystery In Space!" when the Gordanians attack Rann. The Gordanians capture his wife Alanna when the effects of the Zeta Ray wear off on him (which teleports him back to Earth). He goes in to rescue her after his confidence is rekindled by Aquaman.
One of the world's greatest detectives, he was able to deduce much of Batman's life (such as the bat being a symbol of a past trauma, and his strong jaw being a characteristic of a doctor's son) when he arrived in 19th century London because of a spell created by Jason Blood. With his partner Dr. John Watson, they solve cases. An example being a supernatural one caused by Gentleman Jim Craddock (who becomes Gentleman Ghost later).Sherlock Holmes carries a cane, which is also a scabbard for his hidden sword. He used this sword in "Trials of the Demon", while he says "As you see, my reflexes are as sharp as my mind! And my blade even sharper!"
Dr. Watson Watson is Holmes' partner in detective work. He aids Sherlock in his cases, though Holmes does playfully mock him by telling him not to be an idiot when he guesses wrong many times. An example of one being a supernatural case when Gentleman Jim Craddock (prior to becoming Gentleman Ghost) was stealing souls in exchange for immortality.
Speedy  Speedy is Green Arrow's archer sidekick — his long-suffering sidekick, even, as we see in a Flash Back Green Arrow has no compunction against sending Speedy into a swamp full of gators to retrieve the former's bow. Speedy is also friends with Aqualad and Robin, and the three bond over chafing that their mentors still insist on treating them as kid sidekicks rather than partners.
Wildcat  A crime fighter from a bygone era who originally taught Batman how to box, as seen sparring with Batman at the start of the episode, Wildcat is a gruff and feisty crime fighter who is slightly depressed that no one wants to come and learn boxing from him nowadays. He helps Batman in his fight against the Outsiders when they attack a shopping mall, and are apparently working for a gross mutant named Slug. They later find Slug's hideout, but ended up captured and are about to be fed to his giant mutant snapper turtles. Due to trash talking, Slug released Wildcat, but left Batman for the giant turtles in a deep pit. Wildcat fought against Slug while Batman escaped the pit. Wildcat defeated him and threw him in the toxic waste-filled river, which mutated him into an even larger, tentacled freak. Wildcat managed to convince the Outsiders not to consider themselves freaks, saying that he used to be an 'outsider' when he was younger. When Slug emerged from the polluted river, the Outsiders joined Batman in defeating him when Wildcat suffered a heart attack. With advice from Katana, Black Lightning and Metamorpho reactivated Wildcat's heart. Wildcat later trains the Outsiders in boxing. Wildcat later helps Batman fight Bane at the beginning of "Menace of the Conqueror Caveman!"
Proto A prototype robot designed by Batman, but found him too big to be practical. Confined to the Batcave until he proved useful in stopping Black Mask's attempt to destroy Gotham City. Currently stationed on the moon, warding off potential alien invaders.
Damian Wayne A "what-if" character in this series, Damian would be the son of Bruce Wayne and Selina Kyle (instead of Talia al Ghul like in the comics). After his parents are murdered, he first takes up the Robin identity to assist Dick Grayson (the new Batman). He eventually becomes Batman himself once the timeline reaches the approximate era of The Dark Knight Returns, fighting Frank Miller's mutant gang. Has a child of his own, who looks a whole lot like Carrie Kelly and becomes his own Robin.
Ice Ice is Fire's airheaded, naive best friend that joins the new Justice League along with Fire. Like her name already says, she has the power to create and control ice.
Uncle Sam A patriotic superhero who derived his powers from the patriotic feelings of the American people. Leads a group of similar flag-wavers called the Freedom Fighters. The Outsiders A group of teenage superheroes (loosely based on a DC Comics superhero team) consisting of leader Black Lightning, swordswoman Katana, and goofball Shape Shifter Metamorpho. They started out as a gang of teenage criminals being manipulated by the villainous Slug. After Wildcat took down Slug in a boxing match, he and Batman convince them to battle Slug and use their powers for good. They then became heroes, with Wildcat as their mentor. Their second appearance had them trapped and attacked by the Psycho-Pirate, with Batman coming to their aid, and in the Batman Cold Open for "Requiem For A Scarlet Speedster!" they show up as young adults with two new members on their team (Geo-Force and Halo).Black Lightning He is the apparent leader of the trio, leading them on an attack of a shopping center. He has the power to manipulate electricity. His outfit is a blue hoodie with yellow lighting bolts on it, and black cargo pants. Though somewhat confused and angry at the world, Black Lightning doesn't give the appearance of being evil. After Batman and Wildcat infiltrate their underground headquarters and defeat their monstrous leader, Slug, Black Lightning uses his electricity to save Wildcat's life, with instruction from Katana, to jumpstart the elder's heart when he suffers a cardiac arrest. He is seen at the end of the episode boxing with Wildcat. In the teaser for "Duel of the Double Crossers!", he reveals that he has an afro-style haircut underneath his hood.
Katana The lone female in the Outsider's trio, she has no super powers, but is a highly skilled martial artist and swordswoman. Katana is generally silent (stating to her friends that "you know how I hate to repeat myself"), typically letting her actions speak for her. After Batman and Wildcat convince her and the Outsiders to turn against their monstrous boss, Slug, Wildcat suffers from a heart attack, causing Katana to take charge of the situation, and speak. She instructs Black Lightning to jumpstart Wildcats heart while Metamorpho becomes oxygen to fill his lungs in order to revive him. She is later seen at Wildcat's gym, dumping out one of his 'Tiger Tonic's (composed of tuna, bananas, raw eggs and tabasco sauce) into a nearby house plant (It should be noted that Batman did this earlier in the episode, and the plant died instantly). Her appearance is that of a teenage Japanese girl in a red skirt and yellow shirt, two shurikens in her hair and she always carries a sword with her.
Metamorpho Metamorpho has the ability to change his body into any shape, as well as transforming into any member of the periodic table of elements. Metamorpho helps in saving Wildcat's life when his heart stops in the middle of a fight by turning his body into oxygen in order to get into Wildcat's lungs. His appearance is like that of his comic-book alter ego, though he appears to be younger than the Rex Mason version. His unique abilities apparently require lots of energy, as he is seen almost constantly eating during the show. At the end of the episode he is seen at Wildcat's gym heartily drinking down Wildcat's Tiger Tonic.
Ambush BugA Cloudcuckoolander with the ability to Teleport Spam and awareness of the Fourth Wall. Appears only in the Grand Finale.
Villains Baby Face  Alfonso Vincenzo Giuseppe Face is a ruthless gangster with the face of a young child, but a manly voice of Edward G. Robinson.

He was defeated by Batman, Plastic Man, and Elongated Man in "Journey to the Center of the Bat!"Baby Face returns in "Night of the Huntress!" , now married to his sweetheart, Miss (now Mrs) Manface) and fights Batman, Blue Beetle III and The Huntress when he springs his crew from Blackgate Prison. After freeing the inmates there, he and his gang escape. He then plans to break into Warehouse X to obtain the criminal weapons there. Batman, Blue Beetle, and Huntress tried to stop them, but end up defeated and trapped in an hourglass trap that was previously used by Clock King. Babyface leads his gang to Little Sisters of Gotham Convent (the peaceful part of Gotham) where a crime lord summit is being held and ends up attacking them. Batman, Blue Beetle, and Huntress escape and Batman uses his transforming Batmobile to combat Babyface's robot while Blue Beetle and Huntress deal with his gang. Batman manages to blow up Babyface's robot, defeating him.
Black Manta  Black Manta is a criminal from the surface world who was hired by Orm to kill AQUAMAN. When Orm succeeds in capturing AQUAMAN and becomes "Ocean Master", Black Manta betrays and imprisons him.

He appears again in the episode "Enter the Outsiders!" where he is robbing an armored car but is defeated by Batman and B'wana Beast. Black Manta teams up with Owlman and the other villains assembled by Owlman in "Game Over for Owlman". In "Night of the Huntress", Black Manta makes a cameo as one of the inmates trying to escape Blackgate Prison.
Catwoman  Batman has never met another villain quite like the illusive and illustrious Catwoman, and not even a complex death trap can keep the two from friendly flirting.Clock King  The first villain to appear in The Brave And The Bold, Clock King has simple goals in life: assemble a clock-themed group of henchmen in a clock-themed secret lair, construct elaborate clock-themed traps and/or weapons, and use them to rob banks and/or kill Batman.
Crazy Quilt  An ex-painter who leads a double life as a master thief, he is blinded during a battle with Batman and Robin. While in prison, he volunteers for an experimental procedure that would restore his vision. There is a side-effect, however: Even though he can see, he can only see in blinding, disorienting colors. Crazy-Quilt's wears a helmet that allows him to hypnotize his victims using flashing lights of various colors. It can also project lethal laser beams, blinding lights, and functions as artificial eyes since his own eyes no longer function; the lenses feed their input signal straight into his brain.
Equinox  An orphan empowered with powers of Order and Chaos, he was suppose to keep the balance. However, the opposing sides of his psyche broke his mind.As far as Equinox is concerned, there's a delicate balance between good and evil, and he's the only one concerned with preserving it.

Gentleman Ghost  "Gentleman" Jim Craddock was a notorious highwayman in 19th-century England, but as his fame spread, he began to seek something more than simple wealth. In search of the ultimate power he made a deal with the demon Astaroth— in exchange for ten human souls, he would be granted immortality. Unfortunately for him, Astaroth's definition of "immortal" didn't quite match up with Craddock's. When the courts ordered Gentleman Jim hanged for his crimes, his body died, leaving his soul to wander the earth as "Gentleman Ghost," seeking revenge on the living— particularly Batman. As a ghost, Craddock is nearly immune to tangible weapons— only the Thanagarian element "Nth Metal" can touch him if he doesn't want to be touched.
Gorilla Grodd  One of the more frequently featured villains in the show. Grodd helped set the tone for the series in the second episode by turning Batman into an ape on Dinosaur Island.
