Batmantis

"Batmantis" is the eighth episode of Space Ghost Coast to Coast season one. It aired on September 30, 1994 on Cartoon Network. It was written by Matthew Maiellaro, and directed by C. Martin Croker.

Space Ghost hosts a Batman reunion of sorts when he interviews Batman himself Adam West, and the two Catwomen Lee Meriwether and Eartha Kitt. Unfortunately during these interviews, Moltar has been kidnapped by Your Mother, and the stars prove to be unwilling and/or unable to help out. Zorak, however, rises to the occasion by becoming Batmantis.
