It started as a mighty wave, but the Cartoon Network's action-anime programming block Toonami dwindled to nothing and then splashed harmlessly into the gutter. The Network finally put the Toonami block, which had played host to such classics as Gundam and Cowboy Bebop, out of its misery as of last Saturday. This coming Saturday will see the live-action Spider-Man movie instead, and the following week will be the broadcast premiere of the direct-to-DVD animated anthology Batman: Gotham Knight.

Batman stands on his favorite gargoyle, in front of a humongous clock overlooking Gotham City. You always what time it is in Gotham, but you may not actually know what city you're in. Gotham City is a weird mish-mash of architectural styles and a crazy-quilt of neighborhoods that don't quite fit together. This has never been more obvious than when you pay attention to the new Batman: Gotham Knight animated DVD, which is itself an uneasy mix of different stories. Click through for an annotated gallery.

When Bill Clinton chose "Don't Stop Thinking About The Future" as his campaign theme song, you know he was really telling you to consume spoilers and obsessively glean info about every upcoming storyline in your favorite movies and TV shows.

And President Clinton would totally encourage you to pore over pics from Star Wars: Clone Wars, Gotham Knight and X-Files 2 (including one which shows something that happens to Mulder.)

For 17 years Kevin Conroy has leant his intimidating, gravely voice to the animated Batman. In fact, many would argue the Conroy is the Father of the Batman whisper. Many actors have tried and failed to re-create this raspy overtone (George Clooney went with smarmy and look how well that went). Now Conroy's voice is returning in the animated anthology Batman: Gotham Knight, on DVD July 8. After the jump Conroy explains how he got his Bat back after all this time, why he originally wasn't interested in voicing the hero and why there's a little Batman in everyone. Plus new pictures.

Some of the things Batman will have in this summer's animated DVD anthology Gotham Knight: 1) Glowy red eyes that give him some kind of infrared vision. 2) Little finger-sized Batarangs that he can throw a bunch of at once. 3) A flying Bat-glider that lets him glide through the ominous skyline of Gotham. 4) A torn uniform that exposes his Bat-abs. 5) A maniac swinging a scythe at his head. 6) Fists of fury. 7) Our money.
