this batman be the one from my childhood however it be a long time since i do not watch an episode from the animated series and frankly i do not remember a lot of it . now i have be add some batman title while i begin with the batman and superman movie and a movie that i find just good by the way ( late i will be write on here a complete comment for that movie ) and and later i begin to watch batman beyond and a series that i never watch before and that right now i be enjoy a lot ( soon i will be write a full comment for season 1 ) . this be my next step and i must confess that i have never watch this movie before and now i be really glad i watch it . this one do feel like a feature film while very soon there a new problem for our dark knight since chuckie sol and a crime bos and have be kill and our hero be the one everybody be blame of that kill . the past will come back to bruce mind and with that we will watch a love story before the batman day and a love story that for bruce end in a very surprising and painful way and end in the dark knight . here we see again why batman be quite unique since we see another person similar to bruce wayne . both suffer the killing of their familiar and both be look for revenge . that character be andrea beaumont and the girl of that love story before the gotham knight day . one of those important difference between bruce and andrea be the fact that bruce at a point be go to stop be a vigilante for love . for the woman he love . andrea after suffer the killing of her father could not think in other thing but justice just like bruce after she leave him and then for an unknown circumstance and but the other difference be that batman doesn not kill and the phantasm do . there be great flashback but you may be wonder something like when do the fun begin . well the joker be enough for you . here the joker have also an important place on the flashback and he be one of those that the phantasm be look for . definitely when the joker appear be when the fun and the best part of the movie begin . he be also another aspect to think by watch this and this one be actually something very special . batman represent mask of the phantasm be like everything we could have expect from an animated movie of the dark knight . the beginning of batman and a present with gangster fear of batman and the police ( except gordon of course ) want to catch our hero and a mysterious new enemy and a love story and a story about the family and justice and revenge and the joker . what else you want .
