The second season of Batman: The Animated Series (or The Adventures of Batman & Robin, as it was temporarily known) differs from the first season both in only consisting 20 episodes (versus the first season’s 65), and in using digital fonts (where the first season used dry transfer lettering).

From Paul Dini & Chip Kidd’s Batman Animated (1998):

These imaginatively rendered title cards were a high point of each Batman episode. While some (like “Harley’s Holiday” and “Time out of Joint”) were character portraits, most often the cards depicted an emotional impression of the given episode’s theme. According to Eric Radomski, who designed many of the cards, “Going with the overall retro-forties feel we were giving the show, we wanted to treat the episodes as mini-movies. The title cards allowed us to create great drama in a very subtle fashion. It was a process of trying to capture what the overall episode was, and not just show a scene or moment from it.”

Most of the title cards of Batman: The Animated Series’ first season (which first aired in 1992–1993) use fonts that were available from Letraset.

Front cover of issue #1

Batman: Dark Victory is an American comic book limited series that was published by DC Comics from July 1999 to November 2000. It was written by Jeph Loeb with art by Tim Sale, colors by Gregory Wright, and lettering by Richard Starkings.

On the covers, the “Batman” title, the names of Jeph Loeb and Tim sale, and the issue title (e.g. “War” for issue #1) are in Eagle Bold. The subtitle “Dark Victory” uses FB Agency Condensed Bold.

Text in narration boxes is in Tim Sale Lower. Text in speech bubbles is mostly in Tim Sale, but the monstrous Solomon Grundy speaks in Tim Sale Brush Italic, and the villain Two-Face's dialogue is hand-lettered.

These three fonts are based on the hand-lettering of the eponymous artist, and were created for Dark Victory, as Richard Starkings described in an interview with Dark Knight News:

With Dark Victory, the first font we made for Tim was more like Sam Rosen, Tim’s favorite letterer. So we did a Sam Rosen-style font, but I didn’t think it looked right. So I persuaded Tim to let us do one based on his lettering for Billi 99, which was his dark horse Indy book. Because Tim came from the indie world, Grendel, Billi 99, you know, he and I talked and that’s the way we decided to go.

The slab serif used for the issue number is yet unidentified.

Front cover. The Batman logo in Plaza is paired with Compacta. “The Batman Adventure” appears to be Mekanik, stretched.

The Batman Adventures was a comic book published by DC Comics from 1992 to 1995, as a tie-in to the cartoon Batman: The Animated Series. The first 16 issues were lettered by Tim Harkins, but starting from issue 17 (dated February 1994, but actually on sale in January), lettering duties were taken over by Richard Starkings of Comicraft.

Dialogue and sound effects are hand-lettered. Titles and credits are in the Lite and Dark weights of Dutch Courage, which were created by Comicraft for The Batman Adventures. Dutch Courage appears to have been inspired by Plaza, which was used for the logo of Batman: The Animated Series.

House Gothic 23 is paired up with Gotham in this advertisement for DC Nation. From Wikipedia:

DC Nation was a programming block of DC Comics series and shorts that aired on American television channel Cartoon Network on Saturday morning. It premiered on March 3, 2012, and was produced by Warner Bros. Animation.

Atari Force is the name of two comic book series published by DC Comics from 1982 to 1986. Both were loosely based on trademarks of Atari, Inc. This fact file for Commander Martin Champion dates from 1982.

“Atari Force” seems to be set in a filled-in version of Filmotype Veranda (which is itself an outlined version of Filmotype Flyer), “Fact File” is set in Stencil (which was originally released in 1937), and “#1 Commander Martin Champion” is set in ITC American Typewriter Bold. The statistics use a mixture of Data 70 (for the headers), OCR-A (for the information), and MICR (for the numbers used in that area).

According to the credits on the other side of the front cover, Neal Pozner is credited for the design, whilst Gil Kane, Dick Giordano, and Mike DeCarlo are credited for the art.

Polyspring by PintassilgoPrints is used on the cover and official trailer of DC Comics graphic novel Thorns, featuring the character Poison Ivy. From the DC Comics website:

New York Times bestselling author of The DUFF Kody Keplinger and artist Sara Kipin reimagine an iconic DC antihero with a gothic-horror twist.

Polyspring was hand-drawn based on ltalia Condensed from the Keystone Foundry (before 1901) and a quite decorative feature was added to it: the font is loaded with OpenType flourishing swashes – when turned on, initial and terminal letters of each word automatically get adorned. Besides the swashes, there are also adorned alternates for each letter and numeral.

The secondary typeface is Chesterfield.

Plaza is paired with caps from Empire (1937).

Plaza is the primary typeface in the branding of Batman: The Animated Series. Designed by Alan Meeks and released by Letraset in 1975 (initially named Playboy), Plaza references Art Deco letter styles as they were popular in the 1930s. It was in that decade that artist Bob Kane and writer Bill Finger created the Batman character. From Wikipedia:

[The] American superhero animated television series based on the DC Comics superhero Batman […] originally aired on Fox Kids from September 5, 1992, to September 15, 1995, with a total of 85 episodes. For the final fifteen episodes, the series was given the on-screen title The Adventures of Batman & Robin, which was also used for reruns of earlier episodes. The series became the first in the continuity of the shared DC animated universe; spawning further animated TV series, feature films, comic books and video games with most of the same creative talent.

Batmantas.com comments:

In 1992, the birth of Warner Bros. Batman: The Animated Series changed the Batman Universe forever. The dynamic series spawned a new technique in animation using black backgrounds that would eventually be dubbed “Dark Deco.” Dark Deco gave every scene within Gotham an extraordinary look, redefining the image of the city.

The unlikely combination of Klute and Granite typefaces used together - I think for the only time - for this Batman / Judge Dredd mash-up written by the renowned Alan Grant.
