With energetic voice performances from the main cast, a humorous tone that doesn't overstay its welcome, and dynamic action that seamlessly goes from one fight to the next, Merry Little Batman is a lovely exploration of the mythology behind The Dark Knight, showing the cutest side of the relationship he has with his son.

Geared very much to younger audiences, it’s fast-paced to the point of freneticism. But it boasts an arresting visual style, its animation heavily indebted to the satirical drawings of Ronald Searle.

Merry Little Batman has every potential to become a new festive favourite: a delightful Bat-gift that will have viewers longing for future holiday specials featuring Little Batman.

Cute and quippy, Merry Little Batman is an adorably silly holiday goof on DC/Warner Brothers’ most valuable comic book franchise.

Just in time for the holidays, writers Morgan Evans (Teen Titans Go!) and Jase Ricci have found the perfect balance of heart and hilarity in this cartoon caper.
