Series Theme Songs[]
The HEAVY "Short change hero" (2009)-0
Super Friends 1973 Opening Theme
During the shows first three seasons the theme song will be Short Change Hero by The Heavy. The song talks about a city in such bad shape that not even a hero would want to live there. This fits the theme of the show which involves insane criminals and corruption in every level of Gotham City. Short Change Hero was also used in the trailer for the video game Batman: Arkham City. In the fourth season Batman teams up with members of the Justice League and the theme song is changed to something similar to the Super Friends theme song.
