"Brave and The Bold" Bat-Mite News 2: Electric Boogaloo

In an interview with Newsarama, Diedrich Bader, who voices Batman on the "Batman: The Brave and The Bold" cartoon, revealed that the actor providing the voice for Bat-Mite in an upcoming episode is...Paul Ruebens.

One future episode will feature the latest incarnation of Bat-Mite, with Paul Ruebens voicing the role.

“He’s hilarious,” says Bader. “He’s so perfect as Bat-Mite. The fanboys of the show are just going to go out of their minds because we mess with reality in a way that just hasn’t been seen on our show. Both the script and the animation goes completely out there.”

According to informed sources, this episode features many other appearances by major players in the DC Animated Universe. As to who? The joke’s too good to waste. Suffice that they are names you will automatically recognize though.

I'm not sure how I feel about this casting. Right now all I can think about is a Bat-Mite sounding like Pee Wee Herman, but I really doubt that'll be the case. With Paul Dini writing the script and the quality of the show, I expect this to be excellent.
