Where to Watch Batman: Year One
- Corey BurkesDecember 10, 2025As always, DC animation never fails and this one is proof of it. It stays on path with the original material and it is a genuinely well done story and animation. No matter how the chips fall with this Warner Brothers sale (this is currently December 11, 2025. Anything can change between now and the next ). I hope they get their head together and realize that the animation division for the DC comic IP can be the foundation to their whole rewrite.
