So, along with a Paul Levitz written Superman/Batman annual, we are getting a six issue mini-series starring everyone’s favorite futuristic Batman, Terr McGuinness! Aw, yeah! It’ll be written by Adam Beechen (who worked on The Batman tv show) and Ryan Benjamin, and according to DCU’s The Source blog, it “will pit the future Dark Knight against his own past, as a dangerous force has begun to target Bruce Wayne’s old foes. Can Wayne’s past put Terry’s future in danger?”
Here’s a quote on it from the writer:
“The dark future of the legendary animated series comes to the DCU in a six-issue miniseries, as Terry McGinniss, Bruce Wayne’s young successor as Batman, faces his deadliest foe yet – a mystery murderer from the Dark Knight’s past! Old faces return, new allies and enemies step into the light, and the partnership between Terry and Bruce – not to mention Terry and Bruce themselves – might not survive!”
I enjoyed the TV show a lot when I was younger, and I still have the Return of the Joker movie in my DVD collection (although nothing else, unfortunately). I’m not a HUGE Batman Beyond fan, but I will definitely be giving this a lookover when it comes out. I’m sure there are a lot of fans who are very excited for this, though.
