Delete article that imposes a universe built around a single character within one company's cartoons. The article assumes continuity between different HB series without justification or external verification. This is OR and would set a precedent leading to a proliferation of overlapping "universe" articles. We then get Hanna-Barbera's Superman universe, Aquaman's, Wonder Woman's, etc. Doczilla 06:13, 29 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete - per the same reasons I gave on the Articles for deletion/Tim Burton's Batman universe nomination below (i.e. that this article is nothing more than information copied and pasted verbatim from other Wikipedia articles). --Hnsampat 11:02, 29 June 2007 (UTC)
 * This article fits within the context of the Alternate versions of Batman article. Plus, Batman and Robin appeared on The New Scooby-Doo Movies prior to Super Friends. Olan Soule and Casey Kasem did their voices on Scooby Doo also (as was the case of The Adventures of Batman animated series by Filmation). So in a way, there was already a canon to be built upon. If you're going to talk about an article that imposes a universe built around a single character..., then also criticize articles being devoted to the "DC animated universe."
