Ci sono voluti letteralmente anni, La La Land Records e Warner Bros provano che l'attesa non è stata vana con questo impressionante set da 4 CD di musica inedita da quella che difficilmente non può essere considerata la più grande serie animata della TV di tutti i tempi: BATMAN THE ANIMATED SERIES! Prodotto da MV Gerhard e masterizzato da James Nelson, questo secondo volume su 4 CD vi porta un tesoro di grande musica orchestrale, musica degna di competere con qualunque blockbuster. I compositori Shirley Walker, Harvey R. Cohen, Carlos Rodriguez, Lolita Ritmanis, Michael McCuistion, Carl Swander Johnson ed altri sono musicalmente rappresentati qui, oltre che l'iconico tema di Danny Elfman. Un booklet da 36 pagine ci offre note di produzione approfondite dello scrittore John Takis. Edizione limitata a 3500 copie.
