Last night’sBatman : The Brave And The Boldmanaged to put off the biggest problem with guest - starBooster Gold(Namely , he ’s more interesting when he ’s a self - wait on jolt ) . Who needs heroes when you have pamperer ?
gratefully , last dark ’s sequence – “ Menace of the Conqueror Caveman ! ” – make out to avoid that pitfall by manage to have Booster omit the power point of his entire character arc . There ’s something to be said for the series ’ quirkiness that Batman can terminate an episode trying to spell out the moral for the hearing , only to be disrupt by Booster test to set up a toyline and book deal spinning out’ve the adventure , and it feel totally right . It ’s a proficient thing , considering that the balance of the installment – despite the presence of Michael Dorn as villain K’rull ( or Vandal Savage , as he really was , even in the pre - release press ; I ’m suppose there were some right hand return over the name in the remnant ) – was a letdown after last week ’s especially harebrained , inventive installment . Without the cynicism of Booster ’s non - arc , this would ’ve been a well - done episode of any generic superhero show … which , while still enjoyable , is nowhere near as good as what this serial publication is capable of . I concord out more Bob Hope for next hebdomad ’s sequence , and not because of guest - star Robin ( Even if it is surly teenaged Robin ) ; no , I ’m wait for Crazy Quilt to get his daytime in the Sunday again . Supervillains need their bedsheet - enliven figureheads .
