Best DC movies and shows on HBO Max: Batman: Bad Blood

Batman & Robin may not be many fan’s favorite Caped Crusader film, but everyone does have to admit it was pretty cool seeing the Batman Family come together on the big screen to save the day. Batman: Bad Blood goes a step further and brings in two new faces to the fold in the form of Batwoman and Batwing.

Acting as a sequel to Batman Vs. Robin, the entire affair follows Batwoman, Damian Wayne’s Robin, and Dick Grayson’s Nightwing as they search for Batman, who is presumed dead after an explosion. Their investigation leads them to uncover a conspiracy involving several big-name villains with a game-changing twist no one will see coming.

The animated film set the DC Universe Animated Original Movies that released in 2016 isn’t a direct adaptation of any specific storyline from the comics, it does take inspiration from Grant Morrison’s run on Batman, mostly the story Arcs from Leviathan. With a perfect rating on Rotten Tomatoes, Batman: Bad Blood definitely comes off as a must-watch affair for fans.

If any of the Justice League movies from the DCEU that have everyone’s favorite heroes teaming up don’t do it for you check out what happens when the Batman Family gets together.
