All 31 animated Batman movies ranked from worst to best

Few comic book characters possess the cartoon legacy of Batman, but which of The Dark Knight’s iconic animated movie adventures are the best?

Comic book fans like to argue that no superhero has had as many movies as Batman. That may be true, as The World’s Greatest Detective has headlined many outings on the silver screen, but it’s especially true when it comes to animated movies. The Dark Knight has been at the center of over 30 animated DC adventures over the course of his legendary crimefighting career, and that’s not even counting the iconic animated TV shows he has headlined.

Some of his very first animated movies were extended adventures spun out of Batman: The Animated Series, but that was just the beginning, as he would go on to star in a multitude of DC Universe original animated movies that all proved to be major hits for DC and Warner Bros. Animation.

From compelling new stories and a LEGO spinoff to adaptations of his some of Batman’s most iconic comic books (and even a revival of the ’60s TV series), prepare yourself for a rollercoaster ride as we rank all of the Caped Crusader’s animated movies from worst to best.
