New interview with Paul Dini on the B:TAS PODCAST. A few tidbits about Batman: The Adventures Continue (@5:30):

- By the time they were telling the Ra's Al Ghul story, both Dini and Burnett were feeling a little ''Batman'd out''.
- However, they do want to keep the door open to do a big special(s) although it will probably not happen for a while.
- The reason for the pause is (Dini feels) due to Batman: Caped Crusader taking the spotlight and setting the new standard for Batman in the ''Animated Style'' for a couple of years.
- He assumes DC will be working on a comic book tie-in for B:CC and would not want to flood the market with two similar style books.

- If DC/Dini/Burnett pursue their story idea, it would most likely be in the tone of The Animated Series, but in a different art style.

I wonder if that includes the Deathstroke-Sunny-Red Hood idea they hinted at before or something else.

Pretty fair points (and they did deliver three seasons) although points to Paul Dini's confidence in Caped Crusader :p.

I haven't heard much about the Batman Beyond tie-in comic, I wonder if it's worth picking up...

To celebrate the fact that I got three weeks off from work for rest, I watched today the latest installment in the separate Minions series of movies. What I loved was the unique logo variation of the Universal logo, which was akin to the plot taking place in the late 1800s
