Bat Minute of The Phantasm - Minute 26: A Satanic, Undead John Waters (with Audra Wolfmann and Brett Stillo)

Arthur does this little awkward cough. Feeling like a... fourth wheel, dude? Oh well, he's outta here anyway. Beat it, creep! I suppose I should be calling him a "Young Turk", however. "All the money in the world means little if you don’t have loved ones to share it with”. Ouch, Bruce feels that HARD. Gangsters barge in and do gangster shizz, such as stealing cigars named after tigers. Real gangster stuff. The next episode follows on Friday. Same Bat Pod, different Bat Minute!

Andrea finishes her thought about the future - is Bruce talking about anybody’s in particular or just the generic store brand? Regardless, she isn't expecting to get any concrete plans out of this guy. That's kind of his whole thing. The duo head to the car and Andrea then drops the bombshell that her dad wants to meet him. GULP! THIS ISN'T PART OF THE PLAN! For... some reason. We meet Mr Beaumont himself and it turns out he's already something of a fan... The next episode follows on Wednesday. ...

Bat Minute of The Phantasm - Minute 22: Brown Chicken, Brown Cow (with Alex Gradet)

Bat Minute of The Phantasm - Minute 20: Rise of the Tea Punks (with Neil Rickatson)

The goons find what’s left of Big Bad Bronski. Oh man, that can't be pretty... think 'mashed potatoes'. In the distance these guys spy The Phantasm… though they think that it’s DA BAT!

Bat Minute of The Phantasm - Minute 17: Respect to Skeletons (with Clarisse Loughrey)

The mysterious one exits the car and crushes tobacco underfoot. No respect at all. What a waste too, especially for this Smalltown Boy.

Bat Minute of The Phantasm - Minute 16: She's Got William Shatner Eyes (with Clarisse Loughrey)

Andrea finishes owning Bruce by revealing her defence class for girls training. Now, to sensible, enlightened, people this is nothing to be ashamed of... but Bruce ain't quite right. Celebrate womanhood, man. Instead of that, Bruce goes full Cobra Kai and sweeps the leg! To these degenerates it's all foreplay, however... and Alfred just can't handle it! Throw in Ms Bambi dancing on the piano and you're in for quite a minute, Bat Mites! The next episode follows on Wednesday. Same Bat Pod, differe...

Bat Minute of The Phantasm - Minute 15: Your Angel of Love Awaits (with Courtney Coulson and Simon Haynes)

The cops arrest the last crook standing as Bruce skulks away to safety once more. Job done. His plan is working. Maybe not the whole becoming a Bat part, but certainly the stopping crime element.

Bat Minute of The Phantasm - Minute 14: Yes, Father, I Will Become a Hammer (with Courtney Coulson and Simon Haynes)

The police have been flip-flip-flipped! Bruce is the only one who can stop this guy from stealing… something. Whatever it is! YOU GO, BRUCIE! Don't forget your hammer. The cops arrive on the scene so Bruce flees. His job is done - the guy will be arrested and the crime has been averted. Kind of. I mean, half of the stuff was lost or destroyed, but whatever.

Bruce decides to leave before he looks any more stupid. Good call. Meanwhile, Andrea continues to talk to her dead mother and is like OMG, THAT WAS BRUCE WAYNE. HE IS LIKE SO TOTALLY AWESOME. What happens is a confounding conversation between the living and the dead. Confounding to one host at least... What isn't so perplexing is the desire to get down and dirty right in the damn graveyard! The next episode follows on Wednesday. Same Bat Pod, different Bat Minute!

Bat Minute of The Phantasm - Minute 9: The Sulkatorium (with Johnie Powers and Travis Bow)

Bruce “hmmphs” at our dear Councilman and he walks away. He’s had enough of this nonsense. Phew - free at last. Still, Master Wayne hasn't retreated to have some fun... oh no... instead he's decided to go and sulk in the spare room and think about THE MURDER OF HIS PARENTS. There is one bright spark, however, as he also remembers meeting a certain Andrea Beaumont for the first time. A creepy cemetery hook-up, but it'll do. The next episode follows on Monday.
