The upcoming Batman series will surprisingly team up one of his lesser-known enemies with the Dark Knight and his allies. While Batman usually battles his villains who constantly try to harm him, it’s not entirely unusual for a villain to occasionally work with Gotham’s hero.
Given the way characters like Catwoman are often portrayed – sometimes helping Batman, sometimes fighting against him – it’s not surprising that DC is reimagining one of their villains as more of a friendly face. What’s really interesting, though, is who they’ve chosen for this new role, and how it differs from the usual approach to the franchise.
November 2025’s Batman Show Is Set To Make Man-Bat Part Of The Family
Man-Bat has been a recurring character in Batman stories since the 1970s, appearing in both comics and on screen. He’s typically portrayed as a villain, designed to be Batman’s opposite – a mutated scientist who represents everything Batman fights against.
DC’s upcoming Batman series seems to be portraying the character with more empathy. The trailer for ‘Bat-Fam‘ shows Man-Bat integrated into the Wayne family, appearing as a genuine part of the household. The actor who voices Man-Bat has confirmed this in an interview with Ebaster.
He spends his time relaxing at home, enjoying simple pleasures like eating pistachios. I really have fun interacting with him – he’s quirky and unique, and I absolutely love that about him.
Man-Bat is often left out of Batman stories or portrayed as a simple, animalistic villain. So, it’s pleasantly surprising – and actually quite effective – to see the “Bat-Family” embrace him as one of their own, adding a unique and touching dynamic to the group.
Why Giving Man-Bat Part Of The Bat-Family Is A Perfect Call

Throughout Batman’s long run, many villains have been reimagined with more sympathetic backstories, sometimes even becoming anti-heroes or full-fledged heroes. However, Man-Bat hasn’t received this kind of treatment as often.
Man-Bat is a compelling character, especially when considered as a foil to Batman, but DC Comics has tended to focus on other, more popular heroes. While understandable, this has meant overlooking a unique and potentially valuable addition to Batman’s world – an underrated character who complements the Dark Knight well.
It’s great to see the “Bat-Family” being explored in the upcoming show, which makes it even more exciting. This highlights that the new Batman series seems to be taking a fresh and unique approach to the broader Batman universe and its characters.
