There are Batman Motion Comics on YouTube

Motion Comics were an early attempt in transitioning between the printed page and digital media, but they never really caught on. They were mostly actual comics that lead the viewer through the page with an animated camera view, sometimes with narration or audio of the written dialogue.

If you want to see some classic Batman stories in this format so that you can decide for yourself if it’s for you, look no further than

YouTube

!

For example, here’s part one of the epic tale

A Death in the Family

, complete with voice over work by none other than the indomitable Mark Hamil as the Joker.

This was a combination of panel by panel scans of the comic and a previously recorded audio book. Pretty cool idea.

"This story is from the audiobook Legends of Robin that consists of 4 different stories, “Death in the Family”, “A Hero Reborn”, “Triumph & Tragedy”, and “A Lonely Place for Dying”"

The stories aren’t complete, but they are a cool project. Here’s hoping someone out there continues the work!
