Batman is back in animated glory after a two year hiatus that began when Batman: The Brave and the Bold ended. Beware the Batman is a fresh new take on the Batman franchise, coming to us from Cartoon Network's DC Nation block. The show began airing on July 13 of this year.
It being a Batman series the premise is fairly obvious, and thankfully the show doesn't bore the viewer with another tedious retelling of Batman's origin. And due to the fact that Commissioner Gordon, voiced by Kurtwood Smith, is not, in fact, Commissioner, but rather Lieutenant it can be deduced that the show takes place during the early tenure of Batman.
