Synopsis

Beware the Batman (2013), Season 1 — a 26-episode animated action-detective series you can watch online on iFILM, set in an early Gotham where Bruce Wayne is still learning the cape and the cowl.

It opens with an aging Alfred quietly hiring his own replacement: Tatsu Yamashiro, a swordmaster who fights as Katana. They start out wary of each other and slowly settle into a working rhythm. From there the threats stack up — Magpie, Anarky, Professor Pyg and Mr. Toad, and Bruce's own Ion Cortex, the device the League of Assassins and Ra's al Ghul are desperate to seize. The back half hands the city to new DA Harvey Dent, whose slow slide toward the Two-Face mask drives the season to a finale where Batman has to fight alone.

What sets the show apart is its dry, noir-leaning CGI and its taste for deep-cut DC villains over the usual Joker. A good pick if the textbook Gotham has worn thin. Stream Beware the Batman Season 1 online on iFILM.
