Too bad Terry couldn’t fight much of the original rogues back in Bruce’s day, like Two-Face, Scarecrow, The Riddler, The Penguin, Poison Ivy, Killer Croc, Clayface, The Mad Hatter, The Ventriloquist and Mr. Scarface, Man-Bat (although Terry was spliced and turned into a Man-Bat like creature), Clock King, Firefly, Hugo Strange, Maxie Zeus, and Catwoman. The only villains that made appearances in “Batman Beyond” were Harley Quinn, Mr. Freeze, Ra’s Al Ghul, Bane, and even The Joker.

Batman Beyond was one of the best shows ever made and needs a comeback

[@TheIncredibleMrT]

Agreed. Super underrated, Bruce Wayne should take a break 😂

[@maureencora1]

Hear- Here!!

[@이동연-c6d]

Yes and Dee Dee needs to change their design as well.

[@logantrimble006]

And yet, the irony is that this show was never actually canceled. Warner Bros put it in hold to focus on the Justice League animated series.

[@jakenewberg1233]

Agreed but with Kevin Conroy gone I don’t know what they can do without him

[@justapeacefulmanwhosbornin7291]

Terry McGinnis (from teen to grown adult) became one of few best Batman substitutes in DC history. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@jalenikezeue4114]

What's your favourite episode

[@margarethmichelina5146]

Terry's ultimate boss mode is making The Joker's getting annoyed by laughing at him. Joker can laugh at anyone but doesn't like to get laughed at.

[@davidknightx]

What was really amazing was the way he actually won the fight. VERY early into the show, Bruce is training Terry and one of the tips to defeating his enemies is to use their own weapons against them. Terry doesn't defeat the Joker by laughing at him. He defeated him with his own joy buzzer ring.

[@margarethmichelina5146]

@@davidknightx But Terry used a reverse psychology to Joker at first by making Joker got laughed at.

[@justapeacefulmanwhosbornin7291]

‘Batman Beyond’, one of my top 5 most favorite DC animated shows of all time! 🖤❤️

[@jdennis867]

There arent really alot of dc animated series tbh but yea ita ine of my fav as well. Too bad they didn't finish the series.

[@mr.decencykeepinitreal6348]

It is good to have Will Friedle voicing Terry McGinnis/Batman again in ‘Justice League: Crisis on Infinite Earths - Part Two.’

[@omariwalker1006]

Will Friedle is just too underrated in this role. He was incredible as Terry McGinnis.

[@Arvyn992]

Batman Beyond was his first voice acting role he ever did

[@user-em6ie2be7x]

Batman Beyond had one of The Greatest Opening Themesongs in Cartoon History. I still love listening to it to this day. 🎶

[@irawilliams343]

He is without a doubt a worthy successor to the mantle of Batman. But I actually wished in this Batman incarnation that Bruce, Barbara, Tim and Dick had happier lives.

[@mr.decencykeepinitreal6348]

25 YEARS of ‘Batman Beyond.’ 😁🖤❤️👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@venomousnate7263]

I remember watching reruns of Batman Beyond and occasionally rewatching it these days. Incredible stories and awesome show. Terry McGinnis really does belong in the Batman canon as a new Batman and mentored by Bruce Wayne.

[@ΕυάγγελοςΦώσκολος]

It's been a while since you made a video about the origins of a superhero. Batman Beyond is one of my favorite heroes. Thank you.

[@TheDJSureShot]

When Young Deuces is narrating you know it’s going to be a great video 🦅🦅🦅

[@nukiesduke6868]

It's hilarious how Hollywood just constantly does reboots, prequels and sequels and it's always for the things you really don't want. But then you have shows like Batman beyond NOT getting a live action reboot, or other shows you actually DO want getting that treatment. A batman beyond live action would be amazing.

[@10640404]

Sometimes they do it for good series and movies, but yes I agree.

[@5lim.0]

Young Deuces videos are always the best

[@danieln6700]

This was so good. I need to rewatch this older ones tbh. They are great

[@manuelgrothe608]

4:57 We need Batman Beyond 2: Neo Gotham Forever to honor our late Kevin Conroy age 66

[@JJ-oq3tz]

I love Terry McGinnis, the second and most futuristic version of Batman the World's Greatest Detective!!! Terry McGinnis started as the arrogant but very cool teenager and he took the successful heir to take the mantle of Batman after the original Caped Crusader's alter ego, the elderly Bruce Wayne, who was overlying 70 years old after 5 decades of crime fighting in Gotham City and retired his super hero career after years he first became Batman. Terry McGinnis may be a little younger and little rough around the edges but at the end, he was a younger and more street smart Batman!!!!

[@davcharley5001]

Batman beyond is such an extraordinary hero,his story is even extra cool: Terry McGinnis was your average person,he went 2 high school,has a girlfriend and goes 2 raves every night. Everything was awesome,until he was jumped by a gang called the Jokerz fortunately he fought them off and won. Then he stumbled upon the Batman Mansion owned by the legendary billionare/superhero (Bruce Wayne/Batman) He was Batman until he retired,then Terry left the Mansion and headed home. Unfortunately,on his way home his dad got murdered so he returned 2 Bruce's place and stole of his batsuits. This "batsuit" does more than make Terry look like a badass,it's basically if Batty had access 2 Ironman's iconic battlesuit. Only he made it in his own unique way. It's equipped with strength enhancement,jet boosters for flight,retractable wings,and many batarangs such as explosive 💣,lasso,electric ⚡ Its also equipped with many tools/tricks such as; a lock decoder,camouflage 😶‍🌫️,climbing claws,suba gear 🤿,even trackable tweezers. Also Terry is no ordinary kid,the dude is skilled in martial arts trained by Robin (Dick Grayson) and Bruce Wayne Batty himself 🤯 Terry is also Bruce Wayne's secret son and like him,Terry has done some amazing things; He's strong enough 2 lift a 215,000 pound boulder,has outpaced a Mach 19 missle,has survived being crushed by a giant penny,and has defeated Superman and the Justice Lords 😈 Terry maybe a great hero,but he lacked the intelligence and expertise of Bruce Wayne Batman 🦇

[@nellyville69]

Terry and Bruce are very similar both was confident, athletic, masculine, and entertaining

[@clevelandknight1094]

Bruce is more like Terry's grandfather because they changed his real fathers DNA.

[@JamesJimmaHarding]

Happy 25th anniversary Batman Beyond, Toy Story 2, Family Guy and The Iron Giant!

[@nathanmeyers8838]

This needs either a video game, live action tv, or movie adaptation.

[@ShadowMoon1412]

Video game would be best, getting Will Friedle to voice him. Arkham style

[@toonlover4612]

There was several pitches for an animated movie, spiderverse style.

[@ShadowMoon1412]

Will Friedle set quite the high bar for batman beyond. Much like his predecessor, batman himself, the late great Kevin Conroy

[@Inuyasha8185]

I love Batman Beyond and Static Shock great intro and characters.

[@Jamal-bl7yh]

Yin and Yang Origins In Yin Yang Yo! Born to Woo Foo legend Master Yo and a mysterious Mother before having his mind erased and being unaware of their existence until he trained them In Woo Foo but did regain his memories of their birth In the series finale It's not Hard to say that these 2 Rabbits are underrated Disney Icons

[@tylergoodman3560]

Batman Beyond is my favorite version of the Dark Knight. 🎉

[@nellyville69]

Imagine a uncensored bloody violent version of Batman beyond ❤

[@Just_Some_Guy_with_a_Mustache]

Batman Beyond, the future that will never be, but we can imagine that's how it will be. If time ever moved forward.

[@TheElementsAreWithMe]

You know there is this artist who did a crossover between Super Smash Bros Ultimate, with various characters from Marvel and DC. And the one that lucky enough to crossart Terry Mcginus Batman, was Cloud Strife from Final Fatasy 7. Seeing this video reminded me just how fitting it was that the two are so similar.

This is awesome

[@erikescamilla9985]

Dc is losing a lot of money by not continuing the Batman Beyond story. This is my fav Batman.

[@carlintaylor3229]

Still remember recording episodes of batman beyond growing up when I was coming up glad this version is still held in high regard nowadays return of the joker still holds up today in terms of storytelling and action this justice league dragon ball and ainme used to be on every afternoon and Saturday nights good memories ❤❤

[@waheedabdullah6371]

Still hoping that animated Batman Beyond movie (the one that has Spider-Verse animation), will get released

[@kidarachnid6262]

One of the best legacy characters and the one true batman successor 🦇

[@BSmokeyGaming]

Missed opportunity towards the end of The Dark Knight Rises, Bruce Wayne aka Batman is enjoying life after he self proclaimed was involved in a explosion trying to save the city, Bruce handed the mantle to Joseph Gordon Levitt’s character in the movie. JSG even looks like Batman Beyond, a huge missed opportunity for Chrisopher Nolan to make a Batman Beyond movie.

[@NECRAZ78]

We need another goddamn season of Batman Beyond.James Gunn,give it to us already.😤

[@ProfessorTakatoPalm]

I want a comeback for this great series. I hope we eventually get the Batman Beyond (Spiderverse style) movie one day. It’s still in the works

[@georgebedor4729]

I thought the name "the purple desentes" would've been a better name for a joker themed biker gang.

[@HelloWorld12-k4e]

His return in JL : COIE Part Two was amazing 🤗 Plz Make a sperate video on the Crisis part Two 🙏

[@jovandudley4151]

Man Batman beyond is a great show 💯💯

[@BatmanBeyondZ]

He appeared in Justice League Crisis part 2 and fought Batman. 😮

[@seanpatrickcain2]

I know right

[@storm_shadow-2107]

Definitely wish Terry had a little more screen time in that movie.

[@BatmanBeyondZ]

Best Fight from the movie ikr he fought his Father.

[@greenvrld7730]

Terry my favorite dark knight successor that not a Robin. I love his show and comics

​@@hvacmep8774 who asked if he was . No one did

[@minuradharmasena5427]

This is the batman that I grew with and I am still a fan of the futuristic suit plus Neo-Gotham

[@Brook11223]

Superman Beyond knew right away that Terry is Bruce's biological son and making Matt Bruce's son as well. This show gave little bit of coming of age story of 80s that John Hughes is famous for with the neo Gotham City backdrop. Epilogue is the defacto series finale for Batman Beyond.

[@sifilore]

How about an origin vid on his villainess, Inque.

[@a.jthomas6132]

Glad I got the complete series since I grew up with this show. I have been watching Batman Beyond when it was aired on Kid WB and Toonami. I never understand the mature themes such as corporate corruption, including the consequences of corporate mergers, corporate raiders, and corporate negligence, until I gotten older. If this series is revived, I would have loved to see more of Neo-Gotham. A perfect combination of the world of Batman and the cyberpunk world of Blade Runner.

[@EvanAdvent]

I think a new Arkham game with Terry as the main character would be a great way to continue the series. Jumping several decades into the future as a new Batman takes on new and old foes alike. Designing a new Future Gotham could have endless possibilities and the advanced suit is just ripe for upgrades and customization.

[@readysetactioncommentaries]

We need a live action Batman Beyond!

[@TheImaginator972]

I always loved Batman Beyond as the best superhero animated series like it's predecessor, I do like Terry McGinnis's origin story very similar like Marvel's Spider-Man.

[@SkydrawnIV]

It's absolutely beyond me why Batman Beyond is constantly passed over for films. Honestly, it's my favourite Batman storyline and would make an AMAZING film!

[@brentons857]

Michael Keaton as Bruce Wayne and Tanner Buchanan as Terry…let’s go! I’ve been saying this for years

[@omariwalker1006]

The justice league episode "Epilogue", is one of the best batman stories I've ever seen. It could have been a movie

[@nomadictree5795]

A brilliant follow up to the Batman animated series. I can’t believe Warner has slept on this for so long.

[@Novilicious]

Batman Beyond vs Iron Man. My friend and I discussed this for ages about who would be stronger than life!!!

Best show ever made! 🎉

[@pepito2847]

Terry McGinnis is an awesome Batman A true worthy successor to the caped crusader and a character that a lot of young adult/teen fans can relate to I find him to be a more compelling character than most Robins

[@MaxStarScream]

One of the few shows to watch only for the hero. Terry is a great Batman.

[@BenTumbling-p1r]

Great series👊👊👊👍👍👍

Batman Beyond deserves a movie or a revival

[@ABOVE639]

[@michaelgarcia8602]

I love Batman BEYOND .

[@msoi215]

I wouldn't even be surprised if they turn Batman Beyond into a motion picture in the near future

[@civilbeast165]

I’m watching Batman Beyond on Max. I never noticed the show had show much death when I was a kid. A lot of Terry’s enemies die. Why does WB insist on not giving Terry the time of day when he would print money? Every time BB is about to make a comeback, WB stops it for some stupid reason. Terry was in the the justice league crisis movie and got less than 3 minutes of screen time and next to no dioluge. The way WB treats Batman Beyond is a crime. Worse how they only care about Batman and Superman and think all the other dc heroes aren’t worth anything

[@BobbyMoore2-mp8wb]

Batman is awesome 😊

[@CaptainMarvelsSon]

One of my favorite DC cartoons all of time. though they screwed up the colors of the HD re-release. While some disagree, the reveal in Epilogue completely ruined the narrative for me. Terry was driven by revenge over his father's death and stole the suit and became a hero... but it turns out hat was somehow the plan all along influenced by Amanda Waller and Wayne?

[@PhilBowes]

The fact that DC and Warner Bros. created one of the best iterations of Batman and have done absolutely nothing with him for 20+ years is mind-bonggling

[@blueraccoon1088]

I remember a while ago i told a friend of mine he should play terry he declines but i know he fits the role perfectly in a live action role. He might also work with Micheal Keaton. He still does decline i tried convincing him since will friedle voices both terry and bumblebee

[@joelcartagena953]

This TV show Batman Beyond just so happened to come out the same year I was born. 1999 Pretty cool right?

[@krizwatcher]

There were several lingering plot points that could and should be revisited. Plus Dana needs more development than she ever got in the series proper.

[@kevinbogdan9301]

I wish we could've gotten a new Batman Beyond movie & it would involves Terry graduation day from high school & Derrik Powers returns to get vengeance against Batman, Bruce Wayne, & his son Paxton & creates an army of Blight soldiers, releases Terry's villain's from jail & destroy the city with a massive nerve gas bomb. Powers will learn that both Bruce & Terry are Batman, & they have one last battle with Blight dying & they save the City from his bomb. Terry gets his own Bat-signal & ends with an incoming justice league mission
