The all-American fighting machine OMAC is pitted against the equally destructive Shrapnel in a chaotic fight to the finish, but the architect behind the battle is the mysterious, balance-obsessed villain Equinox.

Between, this and the Kamandi ep preceding it, we're getting a double shot of King Kirby goodness to close out June. Nice. :up:

Coincidence, but I think we could use a little more Jack Kirby in our lives.:word:
 
The show has been delayed to an unreleased time later this year, Worlds Finest has the sad details :csad:

Now I'm going to get withdrawal symptoms!
 
Dammit! That's at least two weeks lag. They just completed all the accompaniment for the musical episode too. :(

This sucks!
 
I knew this show is too good to be true. :( I mean don't WB cartoons usually last 5 seasons? I really hope this show will continue much longer than that!

What are you chirping about? The episodes airing dates have only been DELAYED, not cancelled. That means they will still air later, as will the next 26 episode season.

Sorry if i made my post seem like that, i was more like:
Waiting for Batman: Arkham Asylum game has been joyful while enjoyning weekly a friendly dose of Brave and Bold, but now we all need to wait for the episodes to come. :(

I mean yeah i KNOW this show hasn't been canceled its way too popular to ever ge tthat haha. :P Im just melodramatic i guess. :( I just really like the show.:hehe::brucebat:
 
Brave and the Bold is great stuff but there have been far to many boring filler episodes for my liking i would far prefer fewer per season with the trade off being the ones we get would all be of higher quality.

I think you misunderstand the term "filler". They're all filler episodes on this show because apart from the Equinox arc, they are all separate adventures.
 
BTW, anyone else thinks that it is actually Equinox the one behind the battle? Libra appearing would be redundant.
 
Yeah me too, Equinox makes far more sense and even a lot of the other previews have just written Equinox instead.
 
[blackout]
Guys its available to watch.
[/blackout]
 
Yeah didn't it leak over the internet or something? Anyhow when are we getting the new episodes? Hopefully soon after comic con, right?
 
Still no dice on when this (or the remaining eps) get aired. :down

At any rate, since this is going to keep coming up, as some people have been able to view the OMAC ep by 'alternative' :ninja: means, discussion of such is fine, under the explicit condition that you use spoiler tags, as to not countenance things for those who can't find it/are too lazy/rather wait/suddenly lost all ability to use the internet to do anything other than log on to this forum.

Additionally, I'd like to point to the Piracy heading in the FAQ. Please be mindful. No DL links, no unofficially released screencaps, no endless wave of rampant requests, etc. ...or Papa spank. Thanks. (Hey, that rhymes. :up:)

At any rate, when the hell does this thing get back on the air?! :cmad:
 
Okay i just saw the episode and.... Guys... this show is a miracle. Let me tell all about the wonders that is... The Brave and the Bold!

So the 3 minute teaser has Batman, Hawk and Dove trying to stop a space war between two alien races and making them make a peace pact. Guess how Batman stops the space ships? With his god alien nulifer beam ofcourse! :D Hawk and Dove take care of the ground soldiers and peace ensures.... except for the Hawk and Dove. =p

So the main episode is about Batman working for this Global world safety union or something.. yeah its a wacky sci-fi episode but actually the one i like the most, 2nd being the one with Aquaman's victory speech. =) Basicly Omac is a weapon and not a soldier, he is like a Hulk but he turns "Hulk" aka Omac by a satelite beam and gets empowered.

Villain of the episode is Kafka... no not Kafka of Final Fantasy 6. ^^ But this warlord or somesort who turns into Shredder the robot! Also guess who is on the episode?!? While Equinox ofcourse! And he can alter the reality. =O He had the power to do anything he wished and whatnot.

There ive said enough, this episode was just AWESOME and another "in your face" haters for showing a SERIOUS episode full of AWESOMENESS!
 
I loved this episode. Mostly the ending:-)cwink:).
 
At the start of the teaser, Batman and his handy "alien nullifier ray" try to end an intergalactic war in space, with Ditko creations Hawk and Dove try to disable their weapons. The teaser ends as Batman manages to get a peace agreement, as Hawk and Dove get into a fist fight. This teaser was amusing, but only for the bickering and Batman's ray.

As for the main episode, more Jack "King" Kirby love continues as Batman is called to the future by the Global Peace Agency to stop war criminal Kafka. Since he is unable to, the GPA teams him up with wimpy janitor Buddy Blank, who can turn into the super-soldier OMAC by the way of the Brother Eye satellite. Both face Kafka, but Batman finds out Equinox is behind the scheme to bring universal balance, and OMAC's recklessness destroys Kafka's lab. However, Kafka survives, and the organic metal turns him into the powerful villain Shrapnel. OMAC and Shrapnel are involved in a destructive fight that ends at the nuclear plant, which Equinox counts on to destroy the city and balance the destruction of a Russian village caused by the GPA. OMAC follows Batman's advice and stops Shrapnel by refusing to fight, and as Buddy Blank, he delays Equinox enough for Batman to manually dunk the radioactive rods on the generator. Batman is dying, and Equinox, impressed with his courage, decides that his death would throw balance off, so he revives him. Batman and Buddy wonder what Equinox will do next as the episode ends.

Yet another solid episode. While it is more serious than the last episode, it still provides humor in Buddy and his "Blank-Fu". Unlike "The Color of Revenge", this episode actually handles the seriousness well, and unlike "Mystery In Space", the philosophy for Equinox actually makes sense here. It is nice to see a recurring threat like Equinox in a lighthearted show like this.

I must also praise Jeff Bennett for his role as Buddy Blank/OMAC. I liked how he used his wimpy Killer Moth voice for Buddy, and his reckless, Southern Montana/Shocker for OMAC. Fit those two well. And for a couple of fun facts, while not shown or mentioned, this episode also takes place in the future, as with Kamandi and Booster Gold. The other fun fact: Buddy Blank is Kamandi's grandfather!

Overall, another good episode, and one of this season's best!
