I storyboarded the opening sequence. Apparently it's an all-Plas episode...needless to say I have mixed feelings about it, considering my history with this character. The biggest feeling probably being that of jealousy! Not only were they allowed to use
Woozy Winks, but it looks like
Baby Plas appears as well! Back when Tom and I did
our pilot, Ruby Spears insisted they owned the rights to Baby Plas, and not WB, who produced it.

I could tell that the Plas-animations looked a little more extreme in the teaser, and now I know why! Excellent work, and I'm glad to see they're still letting you wok with the character!
Thanks, Twil--what a nice compliment.
I thought the entire episode was pretty enjoyable; like I said, totally amazed and jealous they got to put Woozy and Baby Plas in there. Again, a little bummed our version never came to fruition. At some point, I'd still love to post some of the additional 4 storyboards we did.
You're very welcome!
I'm a huge Plas fan (thanks to a combination of your pilot and BATB), and I enjoyed the episode a lot, as well. I'm bummed that your pilot never got the green light, too, but if it helps, I know there's a big fanbase for it on the internet. That should count for somethin' :)
And I'm sure a lot of people would enjoy seeing those storyboards- I know I would!
Great episode, one of my favorites for sure! There were a few reaction shots in that teaser that really reflected your style, so I wasn't surprised to hear that you were the one who boarded it.
And hey, hopefully you'll get to post those additional storyboards sometime, I know I'm not the only one who'd love to see them!
I'm SO happy that Woozy Winks was in this episode! I loved it, the episode really held onto the comics part of Plas' life, but also (especially the end joke) gave a bit of an homage to the cartoon. All around this was really a fun time!
Also I read that you did the episode before watching it and I saw tons of Andy Art here and there through I really would have been impressed with myself if I was sitting there and said "That looks kinda like an Andy Batman." or "That was such a Andy Plas reaction." Maybe next time.
Again though this is one of the best Batman: Brave and Bold episodes I hope for more like or better or hell a spin off for Plastic Man!
Ah, so you weren't allowed to use Woozy Winks? I was wondering why he wasn't in your pilot.
