Paul Dini and Bruce Timm’s Batman: The Animated Series has inspired several fantastic artists over the years. All of whom evoked the comic book noir of the series. However, we think this latest series from artist Raid71 and the folks at Bottleneck Gallery captures the Art Deco look and feel of the seminal cartoon series more than almost any other illustrations we’ve seen.

Bottlneck’s online gallery showcases not only the Dark Knight and his city, but also several of his most infamous rogues. Raid71’s Batman: The Animated Series show became available in its entirety for viewing and purchase on Friday, July 17, at 9:00am PT through Bottleneckgallery.com. Here’s what the artist had to say about his latest collection:

While researching Batman: The Animated Series I stumbled across this brief for the background artists.

“Night in Gotham City. Only the faintest of rays of moonlight break through the steamy darkness. Shadows are black, twisted, and frightening. The thick night air carries many sounds: breaking glass, sputtering neon, harsh, bitter voices, and police sirens. Always police sirens. Most of Gotham’s daytime inhabitants have long since fled to the suburbs or into security-gated apartments. This is not a safe place after dark.”

Add in some 1930’s Art Deco architecture and I had all the information I needed to create the posters and naturally I re-watched every episode!
