I purchased the first THE BRAVE AND THE BOLD with Batman in it, so I've seen it all. The B&B stories were rarely, if ever, part of the continuity, so you fanboys whining about it destroying the mythos can get bent...you don't have Clue One what the mythos really is.
Bader, doing his "Hoss Delgado" voice, is an inspired voice casting, though its not likely we'll see Bruce Wayne in these episodes. So far, I've not been disappointed with the other voices we've heard.
The take on Aquaman is probably the most brilliant freakin' original take ever of one of the more dull characters in the DC Universe, and to have him show up as guest star *twice* made it all the better.
I am still chuckling..."A Hero Doctor!!!" Elongated Man and Plastic Man were never in a comic story that I recall, yet Ralph and "Eel" were played out with truly beautiful humor given the contrasts between the comics and this show.
The only "down" moment was the Outsiders; I didn't see that as an appropriate intro of the three characters, especially Katana and Metamorpho. OTOH, this isn't the same strict interpretation DCU we've come to know, so someone else may see it as great.
But even my elderly father, who read his books as a kid, thought the casting for Wildcat was absolute perfection and has started watching in hopes of more Golden Age heroes appearing.
If you only go back as far as the CRISIS ON INFINITE EARTHS, don't bother watching it, because you just won't "get" what the show offers.
But if you know of the earlier books, or survived the Mike Sekowsky era, you'll likely agree that this is a pretty good effort.
And curse George Lucas to Hellywood for refusing to make BLACKHAWKS.
