Just finished watching Batman & Harley Quinn, i don't have much to say but i enjoyed the animation a bit
Also in terms of feats Batman survives this big explosion here

Nice

 

[Propellus]

Another season 1 feat I forgot to mention:

Tore off a giant whisk and threw it to wall of a steel tower leaving a big hole onto it, pretty cool supporting feat

Made the blog

 

[Propellus]

That's pretty neat, i never heard of this series before
It looks like he vaporized that whole wave of water so that's pretty impressive i might try calcing it myself
Also is Krypto's size or dog breed ever given?

And looking at the plot he is indeed a Labrador Retriever after all, though his size is never given out, he should be the average size of his breed

This still alive?

 

[ArkhamDC06]

I was planning a making a profile for the Joker for A Long Halloween, Ra's Al Ghul in The Doom That Came to Gotham and maybe Yog Sotha but aside from that, doesn't seem other people are planning anything here (tbf it's not like there was something that big, the next film barely revealed its cast)

 

[Imaginym]

Sounds interesting!
What's the opinion of the Young Justice animated series here? That series has been getting some work done lately, thanks in large part to @Dalesean027 .

 

[ArkhamDC06]

Hit-and-miss for me

Some arc I love, like the last Season arc focusing on Child, the Lords of the Chaos/Order, Doctor Fate and Klarion (I made all three btw) or the Atlantis arc or Savage himself. Other stuff I genuinely don't care about or thought was bad done for me. At least the series tackles pretty heavy subjects and generally does it well

 

[Imaginym]

Yeah, I really enjoy the Lords of Order/Chaos stuff, though I could care less for stuff like Tigress & her family drama.
I also wish the stuff with Mary Marvel & Granny Goodness got animated.

 

[ArkhamDC06]

I could care less for stuff like Tigress & her family drama.

This. It's been the focus of the series for ALL FOUR SEASONS, it was good at first but now I'm just tired about it

 

[The_one_you_least_expect]

I only watched one ep in S4 and it was only for razor lol

 

[The_Smashor]

So I just watched Justice League for the first time, and in Episode 13 (War World Part 2), Hawkgirl deflects a blast that was going to destroy a planet with her mace. This is probably an outlier (Espesially since the blast deflected only destroyed a single weapon), but it seems worth bringing up.

Toph vs Terra - Geokinetic Glass Cannons

Yeah they’re the same tier now Terra (Teen Titans) vs Toph Beifong Both 7-C, Speed is equalized

[Dinobot1996]

Hmm, looks like this DCAU Bane calculation still needs to be evaluated.

As a note, Bane might be able to get a 8-C key if that calc gets approved, considering by the time of his appearance in Superman: the Animated Series, Bane was apparently able to refine his Venom formula to become twice as strong as he was previously.

 

[Dinobot1996]

Rather odd how despite Terry McGinnis having it mentioned in his profile that his Batsuit increases his physical strength by a factor of 10, that doesn't seem reflected by the stats in his profile. If his AP is increased by 10x, he should be 0.14 tons (9-A+) with the suit, and if his LS is increased by 10x, he should be able to lift 7.0671 tons (Class 10) without the suit.

 

[Dinobot1996]

Despite not having any specifically listed, DCAU Batman seems to have a lot of notable LS feats, a decent number of which could presumably upgrade him above Peak Human. These include the following:

• Held back a polar bear
• Pushed back a tiger
• Tore the handle off a train door
• Ripped a door off its hinges
• Pulled over a statue (plus two thugs)
• Suplexed a crocodile, and overpowered the jaws of a second crocodile.
• Resisted a grapple from Rhino, who previously was able to push a large stack of platinum bars over
• Tore the head off a robot
• Toppled a large statue with extreme effort

 

[Dinobot1996]

DCAU Riddler, at least as of the time of STAS/TNBA, might be able to scale higher than 10-B physically. He took a kick from Robin, and soon afterwards harmed Robin with a kick of his own. Producer and BTAS co-creator Eric Radomski also apparently stated that Riddler's design was meant to show that he could pose a physical threat if he needed to.

 

[Dinobot1996]

After looking around for information compiled online, here's some random abilities demonstrated by DCAU Batman that don't seem to be mentioned on his profile:

• Enhanced Senses (Evaded Vertigo's death traps with his eyes closed. Held his own against the Penguin while blinded)
• Pressure Points (Used to disable Mano's arm)
• Hacking (Hacked the A.R.G.U.S. computer)
• Vocal Mimicry (Imitated Killer Croc's voice while disguised as him)
• Supernatural Willpower and Resistance to Fear Manipulation/Sleep Manipulation/Mind Manipulation/Dream Manipulation (Fought through the effects of Scarecrow's fear toxin. Had a strong enough will to escape the Mad Hatter's dream machine, which the Hatter believed to be impossible. Resisted Dr. Destiny's illusions)

Update: Batman has a lot of gadget-related abilities:

• Vehicle Summoning (with Utility Belt, can summon the Batmobile, Batwing, or Batboat)
• Limited Surface Scaling (with retractable gauntlet claws, climbed across the Lexwing while it was in flight)
• Acid Manipulation (has used acid that can melt metal)
• Electricity Manipulation (with Electric Batarangs, Taser Launchers, Grapnel Gun, and knuckledusters)
• Ice Manipulation (with freezing spray)
• Light Manipulation (with flashbang Batarangs, grenades, and discs)
• Sound Manipulation (with the Sonic Batarangs, sonic frequency device, and mini sonic devices)
• Animal Summoning (with the aforementioned Sonic Batarangs)
• Energy Projection (with laser cutter)
• Gliding (with his cape, though only as of Justice League vs. the Fatal Five, as he lacked the capability prior)
• Sleep Manipulation/Status Effect Inducement (With knockout gas balls, capsules, spray bottle, post-JLU gauntlets, and tranquilizers)
• Resistance to Light Manipulation (with protective lenses)

More to be added later...

 

[Imaginym]

Glad to see some love for the DCAU.

 

[Dinobot1996]

Glad to see some love for the DCAU.

Yeah, I've been rewatching the shows and realized that there's a lot of stuff that's been overlooked for the verse. Batman's arsenal (and the associated abilities they give him) alone is significantly more expansive than his profile reflects.

On another note, I wonder if this explosion caused by Brainiac would be worth calculating, considering even Amanda Waller seemed to withstand getting caught in it just fine.

 

[Dinobot1996]

Now to see if DCAU Scarecrow has any scaling that might put him above 10-B physically (Not counting his wooden stick)

BTAS:
Withstands getting slammed into a wall by Batman
Withstands a swing kick by Batman
Briefly incapacitates Batman by jumping on him from a higher ledge
Withstands getting thrown by Batman
Staggers Batman by hitting him with a box of light bulbs
Withstands getting knocked down some stairs by Batman

TNBA:
Withstands a tackle from Robin
Withstands getting tackled by Batman (who had his fear of killing removed) hard enough to break a train control panel
Withstands getting thrown by Batman into another panel (Though Batman would have strangled him to death afterwards if Robin didn't intervene)

Rewatching the series, I realized I missed several things when making his profile but I was busy with other stuffs. It seems to me Scarecrow is basically a stone wall in terms of character classification so to speak

 

[Dinobot1996]

Seeing the mention of the feat of Hawkgirl diverting a blast powerful enough to destroy a planet, I decided to check and see if there were any other feats/statements that would make it seem like less of an outlier. So far, I've found:

• Superman diverts and cracks apart a comet that would've destroyed the Earth (this is probably Tier 6, as it sounds more like an extinction level event)
• A combined attack from a group of Green Lanterns against AMAZO would've destroyed half the planet. 14 Lanterns were shown to be present to attack AMAZO, all of which had been pushing themselves trying and failing to stop AMAZO earlier
• Star Boy claims that it would take a thousand Lanterns to hold the sun together to save it from being destroyed past its GBE by the Eye of Emerald Empress

 

[Dinobot1996]

I wonder if an argument could be made for Static getting a second key for later in his show. Both his currently listed feats capping him at 8-A happened fairly early in the Static Shock series (Him knocking out power in Dakota City was in season 1, while his ice melting feat was in season 2). In season 3 however, despite being weaker than him, he was capable of temporarily beam clashing with a bloodlusted Brainiac-controlled John Stewart before getting overpowered. By season 4, Static could charge John's Green Lantern ring when it was at low power, breaking a stalemate with a disguised Sinestro.

 

[Dinobot1996]

I wonder what speed results could come from DCAU Batman evading this medical laser after it was fired at him...

 

[Dinobot1996]

Some random feats from the Gotham Girls shorts:

• With preparation, Poison Ivy can use plants large enough to engulf a mansion, and could've destroyed it
• Zatanna's magic is apparently faster than a shotgun blast
• Poison Ivy's regular plants can crush a safe. An identical safe was completely undamaged by repeated hits from Harley Quinn's mallet
• Harley Quinn remains conscious after getting smashed into concrete by a wrecking ball

 

[Imaginym]

I do wish I could contribute more, although I'm often busy or distracted.
Still, the work Dinobot does here is exemplary & very commendable.

 

[Dinobot1996]

A couple other TNBA feats:

• Batgirl temporarily holds back an animatronic dinosaur
• Batman withstands getting attacked by a genetically engineered tiger that accidently destroyed a stone column, and also had the upper hand over Thomas Blake, who was alive (though unconscious) after the tiger pounced on him and landed on him after a several meter drop with enough force to knock itself out (earlier in the same episode, Batman and Catwoman also survived getting caught in an explosion that destroyed part of a large chimney, though I couldn't find a video of that)
