My personal picks on what some of the best pieces of media Batman has to offer.

1
Batman: The Animated Series
Action & Adventure Animation Drama +1
There is something about this show that is so damn special that isn't just nostalgia. The neo noir vibes are immaculate and this batman once again feels like a true detective with an unyielding sense of justice.
2
The Batman
Crime Mystery Thriller
This is BATMAN and works fantastic as a standalone but works even better when you know more is coming
3
Batman: Mask of the Phantasm
Animation Crime Mystery
Just a great movie about the balance of the bat and the man
4
Batman: Arkham City
Hack and Slash Adventure
This is the badass side of Batman I can't get enough of. The kind of adventures that makes you wonder how one man can even do all this.
5
Batman: Year One
Fantasy Classics Science Fiction +1
Iconic
6
The Lego Batman Movie
Animation Action Comedy +1
No this is not an ironic addition. If you love Batman as a character, please give this a watch and you'll understand why.
7
Batman Beyond
Animation Action & Adventure Sci-Fi & Fantasy
I just love the concept of this. A batman who literally in old age refuses to stop being Batman. I love Terry McGuinness. So fun. And the suit. My god the suit.

I didn't grow up watching a lot of comic book cartoons as a kid, but I did love Batman Beyond
