The 29 Best Animated Batman Movies, Ranked

DC Entertainment

Gotham City’s nightly savior is considered fabled among the massive pantheon of iconic superheroes. 

Time and time again, Bruce Wayne’s alter ego Batman has battled against seemingly insurmountable odds and come out at the end of them the victor. His many adventures have produced a collection of the greatest stories in the vast comic book medium. And thanks to the animation wizards at Warner Bros, many of those same legendary plotlines have been adapted into animated movies.
