Paul Reubens Did Bat Mite's Voice?

Just makes it all the more amusing.

Not since the Simpsons episode, Three Men and A Comic Book (1991), starring Daniel Stern and Cloris Leachman have I seen a cartoon that captures comic book fantacism and geekiness.

As Bat Mite tries to find confrontations for his hero Batman to take on, he steps out of the story to deal with Batman fans, all dressed as the dark knight, to find out how they like to see their hero.

Topped off with the little mite dressed as Green Arrow at the end, as well as a phenomenal dedication to the old classic Bob Clampett Daffy Duck cartoon, The Great Piggy Bank Robbery (1946), where he envisioned himself as Dick Tracy, called Duck Twacy, in which Batman is surrounded by larger-than-life images of many recognizeable Batman Rogue's Gallery villains, as Daffy was done with bogus (and real) Dick Tracy characters).

All around brilliant cartoon, the way cartoons should be, ya'll.
