The NZA Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 because i cant make this shit up Gotham HighHey everybody! We have a huge treat in store for you this week from the Jeff and Celeste vault of awesomeness. Batman is both mine and Celeste’s favorite superhero and some time about a year and a half ago, we were approached to create a spec series based off of an old drawing of mine that we then sent to DC. Unfortunately, the project got lost in the sea of all the other Batman related projects in the works. But hey, it was still fun to make. The Story Synopsis: We all go through incredible changes as teenagers: growth spurts, bad skin, a sudden insatiable need to uphold justice and avenge your murdered parents…. Well, that is if you’re Bruce Wayne. As if being a freshman at Gotham High wasn’t tough enough, Bruce’s insomnia and technological fascinations are taking their toll. Instead of spending his time studying, he has begun to obsess over an emerging personality trait: Batman. But under the watchful eye of his guardian and steward, Alfred Pennyworth, Bruce is forced to put his intelligence to good use: graduating high school. But given his classmates, can Bruce survive Gotham High? bonus! not sure if any of this is legit: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iambaytor Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 I would say this is a terrible idea if not for the fact that X-Men pulled this horrible idea off successfully a few years ago and that incarnation remains to-date the best show based on the X-Men thus far.

C_U_SPACECOWBOY Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 I actually think this would have had potential. Love the character designs! Too bad its DOA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iambaytor Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 I'm desperately trying to figure out who the guy on the far left is supposed to be. Mr. Zasz? Ratcatcher? That guy from the Black Crows? Also, would Robin have been some sort of violent kindergartner? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Panch Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 Also, would Robin have been some sort of violent kindergartner? Now we're talkin'. If this was treated with that kind of humor then I'd be on board. Here's hoping it's the rapist. BRUHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lycaon Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 Poison Ivy as a cheerleader? Harley I could see, but Ivy? I also like the art, but get the feeling that this is much better in our minds than it would ever have been in practice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The NZA Posted January 12, 2011 Author Share Posted January 12, 2011 well, at least this mess has me thinking i should check out evolution sometime. *rose-tinted glasses on* itll never beat the classic WB series, mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iambaytor Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Do you mean the FOX animated series? because X-Men: Evolution was WB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The NZA Posted January 12, 2011 Author Share Posted January 12, 2011 yeah, i guess that's the one. i used to watch the reruns on WB moreso, though. does evo start slow? is there somewhere i should jump to for the better bits? its not like i need an intro to these characters, im thinking.

X-Men Evolution is almost literally Ultimate X-Men minus some of the darker bits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Panch Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 So I've been thinkin about this pretty heavily since folks started posting and if done right (Adult Swim-ish), it could really be cool. Really, it was Baytor's Robin comment that got the creative juices flowing. Robin would work as a kindergartener, BUT ONLY if he was a kid of one the student's at Gotham High. Remember Adult Swim? Killer Croc of course would be a bully/jock... with HORRIBLE acne. Harvey Dent could be student government. Also a little bipolar. His quark would be that he's always asking for spare change. Penguin/Riddler would be nerds that get picked on by the jocks. Selena Kyle would be the school bike. Poison Ivy would be the hippy Green chick. Always preaching the environment and shit. Possibly lesbo. Tommy Elliot would be star quarterback. Best friend to Bruce. His thing would be that he puts his finger to his lips before plays in a football game. Gordon could be hall monitor. Joker? Is a little harder to figure out. Class clown is too obvious. Need something clever. It would also be cool if the rest of the DC Universe made appearances, but as rival high schools. Smallville High Flyers. Coast City High Constructs. Sister Amozonia Roman Catholic School for Girls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thelogan Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 Ok, ok...I'll accept the fact that Batman went to highschool with all of the deformed freaks that would later try to kill him on a regular basis, but I refuse to believe that Bruce Wayne would have ever gone to public school. Idea /done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
APANCHALYPSE RETURNS Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 Unless he was only going there to better understand the future thugs he'll be putting in body casts. Bruce Wayne would TOTALLY do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reverend Jax Posted June 12, 2011 Share Posted June 12, 2011 This reminds me of Clone High, which was an awesome show. Every episode was a "very special episode." If this show was like Clone High, I could be great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iambaytor Posted June 12, 2011 Share Posted June 12, 2011 Public High School would be just like that part in Batman Begins where he's running around Asia stealing shit he already owns. Bruce Wayne always slums it for science. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
