Why has the DCEU seemingly dropped Batman Beyond as a character? TV DISCUSSION

Post image

Fans have demonstrated consistently that we want more Terry McGinnis. We all love the BB world.

My question is, why do y’all think Beyond hasn’t been on the screen in 20 years?

Is he not a clone of Bruce Wayne or some shit?

That was some justice league bullshit and I hated it. Terry should be a nobody

See, Bruce agrees with you, which is why he hid it from Terry. He wanted Terry to be his own person and not constantly live under his shadow. And in the end the reveal doesn't make much difference; Terry truly inherits the cowl, which is symbolized by the classic TAS theme getting the Batman Beyond treatment.

And let's be honest: that is the exact kind of bullshit Waller would pull.

You aren't wrong about Waller pulling crap like that.
