    Terry McGinnis

    Character » Terry McGinnis appears in 408 issues.

    Born with a partial strand of the original Batman's DNA, Terry McGinnis was a reformed juvenile delinquent who stole the Batman suit to avenge the murder of his father. Under Wayne's guidance, Terry became The Tomorrow Knight of futuristic Neo-Gotham: Batman Beyond.

    Should Batman Beyond get a Partener / sidekick?

    Now i know i big problem with this is that people will probabily think that it's just going to be some futureistic version of robin that wont look any good. I don't just mean a robin i mean any kind of hero you'd like to see in the future. Although maybe they should let the catwoman beyond have the spot light i show what shes really made of.

    No. I don't think so, at least not a sidekick Terry McGinnis is a solo act. This unless he finds a superpowered partner, then I would be all for it. I don't think that it should be a normal or a technological character, since then it would provide a Dynamic that I like a lot in comic partnerships, Skill/Power.

    Still not a fan of him being Bruce's cloned "son" it didn't really seem like they needed to put that into his origin, his origin was fine without it, there wasn't any real need to add that in and make him another Batman son who stands in Bruce's shadow, there just wasn't.
     
    As for a sidekick, the new Catwoman could make for one, also I'd like to see Max maybe give it a try, she'd make a good female Robin or Batgirl, plus they need to do something with her character, sure she's a computer wiz, but Terry has Bruce for that.

    Well in a lot ways Terry is kind of sidekick/protege, Bruce does most of the thinking,Terry does the leg work 
     
    Terry is by no means incapable, but he's still learning. if he had a sidekick it would be strange, Bruce would giving orders to Terry who then gives orders to someone else

    No but if they are going to ever give him a sidekick or partner then they should wait.

    I think Bruce Timm's studio said that if Batman Beyond wasn't cancelled or whatever in favor of the Superman series, they were going to bring in Huntress as his sidekick.

    He's young himself I don't think he needs to have a sidekick when he's still in the process of training himself to be better. Maybe a partner but for now I like him alone.

    When Terry's older, possibly the child/grandchild of Dick and Starfire. In this universe I believe that he and Star wound up together since Barbra is married to Sam.

    @jukeboxheroabc: No mention of it in Hush Beyond.
     
    Also I like that Terry is Bruce's son, don't know why, but Epilogue showed Terry really embracing the mantle and the biology just seemed poetic.

    @TheCrowbar:  Guess we will have to read and find out. I also feel the same way of Terry being Bruce's son. It just feels right in some way.

    Absolutely NOT. It just doesnt sit well with his character to me BUT if the character is exceptionally good then i could change my mind on the partner business...

    He could have one in an issue where they show his future. You'd think someone would have tried to be his sidekick by the time "Epilogue" roles around.

    I think after the tragedy with Tim Drake Terry learned the lesson about the risks of taking Robin..
