Continuity with The New Adventures of Batman


Did this come out before or after the new adventures of Batman? Because Dick is still Robin and he still does not know that Barbara is Batgirl. So is this just before that series or is it out of continuity?

This comes before the new adventures and fits perfectly into continuity. At the end Dick and Barbara are a couple and Nora is resored and cured. The latter would lead into the New Adventures ep "Cold Comfort" as stated by the creators on the Batman the Animated Series volume 4 dvd special feature.

I just wish that the Dick Grayson/Barbara Gordon relationship that we saw in this film had been continued into The New Batman Adventures.

It became Barbara and Bruce in the new series. also the animation changed considerably.

SubZero takes place at the end of The Adventures of Batman & Robin and about three years (or just under that) before the beginning of The New Batman Adventures.

That's the order they happen in.

Cold Comfort ruined the character of Freeze. It would have been much better if they'd left it alone.

I agree; I would be more satisfied if the Mr. Freeze story thread ended with this film, since the next two episodes featuring him in this universe (counting the "Batman: Beyond" episode) compound and prolong his tragedy. I just wanted a happier ending for him.
