Written by Sholly Fisch; Art and Cover by Robert Pope and Scott McRae
What they got right: Sholly Fisch is no Landry Walker, but he doesn't have to be anymore than any of the show writers are each other–if that made any sense. The point is that I like what Sholly did with this story, not being too serious with this story. Each of the heroes had their own take on the Batman costume, while still resembling their usual outfit yet still showing off the best cape in comics (that would be Batman's). The art maintains the feel of the show, and although it takes two artists to equal one Eric Jones, the result can't be argued with.

What they got wrong: I'm going to assume that Sholly wrote this prior to the episode where we meet Plastic Man's wife, because otherwise that scene with Catwoman is kind of wrong.

Recommendation: I have yet to see this comic under any of the writers not be worth a recommendation. Nobody better screw up the track record.

Cool review.
Haven't gotten my copy yet, but this is one of my regular monthly must-reads. I have to admit that I followed The Batman Adventures through all of its incarnations - even when it was "rebooted" as The Batman Strikes. That iteration took awhile to grow on me; and, at first I didn't want to like this new show or this new book. But it is huge fun, with a nice nod to Adam West and the '60's version. I just wish that Timm and Dini had brought Green Arrow and Black Canary into their version.
The only way I can describe this version of Batman is "Outrageous!"
