Johnny H. Batman Beyond may not be seen in as high regard as Batman: The Animated Series or Justice League, but I personally think it's a highly respectful and entertaining continuation of the character millions of people have come to know and love like a longtime friend. It's a good sequel to Batman: TAS and Superman: TAS, and it took risks like having another kid take the stage front and center as the Batman character, in the form of Terry McGinnis.Since it debuted in 1999 it's been faithfully followed by fans of the wider DC Animated Universe (DCAU), fans have sometimes universally agreed on the show's quality while others have criticised it for not feeling too much like a Batman show. I'm with the former. It's a perfectly watchable TV show that keeps the atmosphere of Batman: TAS though with a Blade Runner-sequel aestethic added to it and arguably makes it more appealing to younger audiences.It's a fine show that's deserving of being part of the DCAU canon.
Nick Retzlaff I watched this when I was 10 or 11 and thought it was pretty good. To those of you who don't know it's about Bruce Wayne as an old man that gives up Batman since he's aging. Fast forward to…the future, as I like to call it. A kid, Terry Mcginuess ends up getting in trouble with a gang and Bruce as an old man helps him. Through a series of events Terry loses his father to the gang and finds a way to stop who sent the gang after his father. Bruce Wayne then ends up mentoring Terry as the series goes forward. Watching it now on Netflix I'm surprised how dark it could be and how it entertained the audience past 5 years old. Sadly it didn't get a chance to end. Not until the last episode of Justice League Unlimited season 1 which is the official ending to Batman Beyond. They also made a movie Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker and I'll review that soon. I'm also surprised that the person who voiced Bruce Wayne, Kevin Conroy was still in this series. Also the person who voiced Terry, Will Freddie, did good especially in Return of the Joker at the end of the movie. Anyway give this a watch on Netflix before it gets pulled since it's pretty good for a Batman cartoon.
OleFr-Skj Yes, that is sort of the concept of "Batman Beyond": a wise-cracking teenager balancing his social life with his superhero responsibilities with a cranky old man yelling at him. All the while being mistrusted by the city at large? That's the Spider-Man we all know and love.Even Terry's rogues gallery is inspired by Spidey's: Stalker is basically a cybernetic Kraven the Hunter, Inque looks visually similar to Venom, Ten of the Royal Flush Gang is the Black Cat and Spellbinder is pretty much a less flamboyant Mysterio.Heck, he even teams up with the "Terrific Trio" a Johnny Storm-less analogy for the Fantastic Four, and his archenemy is an evil GREEN industrialist.But that's the beauty of it. "Batman Beyond" combines two of my favorite things, and in the future no less.Terry McGinnis may not be the best Batman, that'll always be Bruce Wayne, but he is absolutely a worthy successor to Batman.The show may be kid-oriented, but it has its fair share of dark and mature storytelling, because even as a teenager in a kid's show, Batman is still the goddamn Batman.
cheesetothepower A few months ago, I saw the direct to DVD movie for this series. I then watched a few episodes an I have to say that I love it. It has characters that I find interesting, the plots are not rushed in my opinion an the animation is not CGI but drawn unlike many other shows. All I can complain about is that there are so few episodes centering around the relationship between Terry McGinnus,the current Batman of the series and Bruce Wayne, the Batman before him. Their relationship isn't fully strait forward. I also wish that it more than three seasons. It had so much potential. A real shame. Maybe someday soon they'll (any nationwide television network) show reruns in a reasonable hour of the day.
