A very good episode.
-- The twist that it was Clayface was excellent though his greed motivation seemed a little off the mark from what we've seen of Clayface so far.
-- Nice to see so much devoted to detective work.
-- Quibble: I don't think Bruce would ever laugh off the idea that being the bad guy is more fun.
-- Excellent Batgirl commercial!

I liked the episode and having it seasonal -Halloween- and including abit of History adds to the story but again it was not in Clayfaces style!
Also before i saw the episode i knew what the spoiler was . . so a 7/10 or 8/10 for great animation? !

I agree, this one gets a 3 1/2 out of 5 from me, too. Great animation, fun Halloween story, a nice "twist" to the plot (though I knew the twist, it was still executed perfectly), this was a darned good episode of "The Batman." I also caught that brief Batgirl commercial -- from what little I heard, the voice actress sounds pretty good. Looking forward to "Strange Minds" next week.

hated it. clayface was solomon? what a waste of a character. even with that little hint at the very end. and i was waiting for the classic line," Solomon Grundy, born on a Monday". didnt get it. i was looking forward to this eppy but was really let down.

um, she was pretty cool. there were just random scenes were shes jumping, theres a brief scene where shes dressing like the batman, or catwoman in ragdoll to riches!! and then theres a scene were she jumps on a balcone and theres a plant! then shes being wrapped by a plant branch and she throws a batarang, then you see the moon and a bat that slowly becomes batgir!! then batgirl says 'i may be small but im scrappy' or something like that, seeing it was soo exciting!! i started yelling!!

[shadow=purple,left,300]I really liked this episode, to be honest. I think that the twist was done pretty well, and Grundy/ Clayface were interesting to see on screen. The Halloween atmosphere was also pretty good, too. Very entertaining. 8/10. [/shadow]

I liked it. I liked the new spin on Solomon Grundy and the episode would've been just as cool if he wasn't Clayface. I thought Clayface's "you win the door prize" joke was funny.

Great ep IMHO! Halloween...great. Grundy...great. Superstitious alfred...great. The supes cameo was brief but precious. The entire segment of museum scenes was cool and very well done. Seeing ol' clayface as an alien was funny. But one of my favorite scenes would of been the grundy unmasking, seeing half his face punched off.
8/10

The supes cameo was brief but precious. Crap, I missed that. And I knew when to look for it too, I just forgot about it when I was watching the ep.

Uh, not one of my favorites. I didn't think the story and the "twist" did justice to the long standing history of Grundy. You only have to look at some of the recent "Justice League" episodes featuring Grundy to compare how shallow this interpretation was; the episode ignored the depth and complexity of the character, reducing him to a one-note beserker. I was actually reminded of Schumacher's Bane as I watched - not good. And to deliberately omit "Solomon Grundy, born on a Monday" in favor of "Destroy" over, and over, and over? The Batgirl promo, however, ROCKED!

I loved this episode. I was so excited that they did Grundy, and even after the twist, I still liked it. When he swiped, what I thought was pond scum, it never occured to me that he thought it was otherwise...very good ep....adn the bubbling at the end gives hope for a real Grundy ep!
Batgirl looks cool, too!

Aside from the Batgirl commercial, I feel like the episode was pretty dry. I love the twist, I didn't even see it coming! That's pretty good. But the best episode so far is still the Clayface Tragedy.
