    Many of you heard about this last year when there were mublings about it coming from DC, but now, it's official. According to DC, Batman Beyond will be back this June with his own 6 issue mini-series written by Adam Beechen. The original cartoon took place in the future, when Bruce Wayne was too old to be Batman anymore. A local ragamuffin, Terry McGinnis, broke into the Wayne manor and found the suit. After lots of begging, he became the future Batman, and beat up a whole new generation of villains, including splicers. (People who splice their DNA with animals.)

    Adam Beechen had this to say about the new series:

    “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!”

    Someone from Batman's past? Who could it be? Probably not the Joker, since he was already covered in Return of the Joker. Most likely it also won't be Mr Freeze or Bane since they were both featured in early episodes, so who could it be? What would you guys like to see in this series?

    Hope this is not part of the larger DC Universe and in it's own canon there is no need for stuff in Batman Beyond to be made part of the continuity as allot of it was uninteresting in retrospect. That show was much better than it should have been and I think it might not work for long in a comics format.

    I was thinking it could be Ra's but then I believe he was in an episode of the show as well. I don't know, I just hope it takes place after the Justice league episode where Terry finds out he's Bruce's son ( well kinda)

     A six issue miniseries definitely works!!! As far as the villain, I wouldn’t be surprised if it was The Riddler or Poison Ivy. As was noted, several Dark Knight villains have already had episodes/arcs/movie dedicated to them (The Joker and Harley Quinn, Bane, Mr. Freeze, Ra’s al Ghul, and the Royal Flush Gang) and gone up against the Tomorrow Knight.

    I know there is meant to be another DC Earth where Batman Beyond lives on and I hope that this really is the first of many multiverse books but the fact that he returns n Superman/Batman makes me nervous  as I would hate for that show to be made canon.

    they said he would go to Superman/Batman?  I haven't heard that, but even if he does it won't really matter because they could just say that he jumped from another earth, it wouldn't be hard to explain.  That's the thing with multiple earths, you could make up reasons for various versions of a character appearing like nobody's business haha

    well there is a superman in that time line if you watched the series so it's not anything serious
    nowhere in this article or the article from DC Nation have I seen any reference to Superman
    even if there is a superman in this comic it doesn't automatically make it DCU Cannon

    @DEGRAAF:  No wait, I said it jokingly at first while reading it but... If that's the first cover, I say it's Hush. Yeah he wasn't shown in DCAU. but that doesn't mean he couldn't have existed in that universe.

    This should be pretty good, depending on who writes.
    My guess is that this won't be exactly following the canon of the Batman Beyond cartoon but it will likely be more"adult" version for the comics. I'm kinda glad DC is really fleshing out and taking advantage of their multiverse concept.

    I am so excited about the return of Batman Beyond & if I had to pick a villain I hope that Hush is the baddie, because he was Bruce's best friend. I would like to see or for them to make mention of Damian and the events of Final Crisis. Basically want it to connect to the regular continuity.

    DUDE! When I was younger I used to love this show, I remember I'd always make sure to wake up early enough to watch the show if nothing else lol. Heck I even have the two "official" movies they made, wish I had the rest of the cartoon throughout its seasons. If done correctly this could be an epic story.

    Oh man this is awesome. I loved Batman Beyond when I was younger I was just recently rewatching the show/rereading the old comic books. I look forward to seeing who this villain is and of course the comic series itself it should be interesting.
