Bruce Wayne as Batman in Batman Beyond Season 1, Episode 1, "Rebirth: Part 1"
The Big Picture When it comes to Batman, one of the unique entries in the 85-year-old franchise is Batman Beyond. The 1999 animated series, set in the same universe as Batman: The Animated Series from Bruce Timm, was a futuristic take on The Dark Knight’s world and his deadly rogues' gallery. Now, in honor of the series’ 25th anniversary, McFarlane Toys is protecting Neo-Gotham with a new heroic two-pack.
What’s ‘Batman Beyond’ About? Close The year is 2039, long after the events of BTAS and Justice League, with Bruce Wayne no longer being Batman. After pulling a gun on a thug due to a near heart attack, he has forced himself into retirement. However, Neo-Gotham still has a ton of crime and a Joker gang on the rise. When a young high schooler named Terry McGinnis' father gets murdered by a member of Wayne Enterprises, he seeks the help of Bruce.
Batman Beyond’s lasting impact is still felt today throughout Batman’s ever expanding lore. Terry’s world has been integrated into the comics, has had skins in the Batman Arkham games, and recently got a new anniversary Blu-ray steelbook. Fans have even been clamoring for a theatrical Batman Beyond movie for years now. However, while DC hopefuls wait to see that become a reality, you can currently stream Batman Beyond and Return of the Joker on Max.
