What is Merry Little Batman about?
“This Christmas, Damian Wayne wants to be a Super Hero like his dad—the one and only Batman,” the official synopsis reads. “When Damian is left home alone while Batman takes on Gotham’s worst Super-Villains on Christmas Eve, he stumbles upon a villainous plot to steal Christmas and leaps at the chance to save the day.”
Directed by Regular Show’s Mike Roth, Merry Little Batman’s screenplay comes from Teen Titans Go!’s Morgan Evans and Batman: The Doom That Came to Gotham’s Jase Ricci. With music by Patrick Stump, Merry Little Batman is produced by Warner Bros. Animation. Roth also serves as an executive producer alongside Sam Register.
