HBO Max has confirmed an October premiere date for the upcoming second season of Batman: The Audio Adventures. The series, starring Geoffrey Wright as the Dark Knight, ran for 10 episodes back in 2021 and brought a brilliant Golden Age spin to the Bat-franchise.
In season 2, The Joker remains at large, criminal kingpins and former rivals The Penguin and Two-Face have joined forces – and the mysterious narco-terrorist known as Scarecrow remains unidentified, even as his chemical nightmares plague the city. The schism between Batman and Catwoman grows ever larger as both escalate their separate wars on crime, threatening dire consequences for both. And Harleen Quinzel (aka Harley Quinn) is living for a love that’s slowly killing her, just waiting for inspiration to strike. The series is once again written by Dennis McNicholas (SNL).

Alongside Wright, the series stars the vocal talents of Ike Barinholtz as Two-Face; Rosario Dawson as Catwoman; Gillian Jacobs as Harley Quinn; Bobby Moynihan as The Penguin and Bat-Mite; John Leguizamo as The Riddler; Seth Meyers as Jack Ryder; Brooke Shields as Vicki Vale; Brent Spiner as The Joker; Kenan Thompson as Commissioner Gordon; Alan Tudyk as Alfred; Melissa Villaseñor as Robin; Bradley Whitford as Scarecrow; and Chris Parnell as the narrator.
It isn’t only HBO Max where Batman is currently succeeding in the podcast world. A partnership between DC and Spotify recently saw Batman: Unburied become the #1 podcast in the world for the platform. A second series of Unburied is also in production.
