Beware The Batman will go down as the Batman show the was never given a chance. It seemingly came at a time when Cartoon Network wanted to go in a different direction from serious, dramatic cartoons. The show was never really granted a true toy line and nobody will soon forget its abrupt pulling from airwaves last fall after only 11 episodes.

When the show did finally return last spring, it was placed in the fantastic time slot of 3 am. Since then, it has shifted to different slots, though not too distant. Heck, it was announced last week that the show would move again in October.

Now comes the latest development: the show will now conclude its run in a marathon that will air all remaining episodes this weekend. I’m baffled as to why a show featuring Batman has been treated like this. Hopefully all those episodes will be available soon On Demand. It’s also worth mentioning that episodes 14-26 will be available on DVD next week in the form of Beware The Batman: Season 1, Part 2 – Dark Justice. Maybe that’s our answer right there – they didn’t want “new” episodes airing after the DVD release.

Here’s the schedule for the marathon, complete with descriptions:
