Yes, I remember that one. I about hit the roof when it came on.
River: The human body can be drained of blood in 8.6 seconds given adequate vacuuming systems. Mal: See, morbid and creepifying, I got no problem with, long as she does it quiet-like.

Ooh! Batman: The Animated Series DVDs! Need more!
Damn, I love my fandom.
Dude, there was a plotline in the Robin series that involved a woman giving off psychoactive pheromones -- I think near the end of the Bruce Wayne: Murderer/Fugitive arc or just after.
Not to mention Poison Ivy and Kory's alien flower garden at Titan's Tower.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
For the record, I generally prefer the continuity of the Batman animated series, which rolls into Batman Beyond. Paul Dini knew what was best in the core myth and told some great stories with interesting risks.
My favorite was when in Batman Beyond, the 50+ y.o. Barbara Gordon (voiced by Stockard Channing) is now commissioner (and she wasn't paralyzed by The Joker, and didn't become Oracle), meets with Terry McGuiness (the new cyberpunk Batman Beyond) and casually alludes to the fact that she had a brief affair with Robin, and a long one with Batman.
Also, the Batman Beyond pilot and four episodes are already on DVD, and I know this because I bought it to send to amych.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
And didja send it?
Well?
Still waiting....

It's sitting at home next to the Wonder Woman action figure and the stack of Batman Animated videos you'll be borrowing from Emmett while he's not looking.
But I'm mailing that, and Nilly's package and some Tom Scola stuff all this weekend.

Oracle-Babs's relationship with Robin/Nightwing is comics canon as well, although she dumped him at the start of this year.
BB-Barbara makes a throwaway comment in Return of The Joker about how bitter Nightwing is now, which makes me sorry we never get to see Mean Old Mister Grayson.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I'm trying to find that on Netflix, Hec, and I see:
- Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker NR 2000
- Batman Beyond: The Movie NR 1999
- Batman Beyond: Tech Wars / Disappearing Inque NR 1999
- Batman Beyond: School Dayz / Spellbound NR 1999
Where would one start?

Which I'm enjoying. Well, the aftermath. I suspect I like things messy.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
Return of the Joker was good.
ita, I'm guessing BB:The Movie is the two-part pilot, so start there.
Favorite Bruce/Terry exchange in BB is something like:
Bruce: She's just a troubled kid.
Terry: And you're the expert on that. You collect them, don't you?

Oh, and a recurring bad guy on Batman Beyond (villain of one ep, part of the gang in "Return of the Joker") was voiced by Michael Rosenbaum. For the Lex completist.
