Keluang Man is a Malaysian comedy superhero who is based on the fruit bat (Malay: keluang). His costume and appearance is based on the ever popular Batman. The Keluang Man cartoon series was very popular since his first appearance back in 1999 through Malaysian local TV channel, TV1 (Radio Televisyen Malaysia), however production stopped somewhere in the middle of 2002 for an unknown reason; possibly the economic crisis from the middle of 1997 to 1999.
The Keluang Man series includes a few aspects of moral value in each episodes, makes it very suitable to be watched by whole family, although some of the actions shown in the series are a bit violent. In addition, the typical Malay language used in the series makes it fun to watch, plus the accent of Malay speaking Sikh police may drive audiences crazy.
Unfortunately, the series became less interesting from season two onwards. The producer of Keluang Man had thrown away most of the action parts of the series and made it full of advice and good moral values, which may explain the fall of Keluang Man.
