Without a doubt, Batman Beyond (future Batman) is one of the fan favorites for years. After Batman Beyond Vol. 8: The Eradication Agenda, the ongoing storyline of Terry McGinnis comes to an end. However, in 2021, DC Comics announced that Batman Beyond will be back in a brand new storyline known as Neo-Year.
Neo-Gotham is alive and has killed Bruce Wayne. He rejected Terry McGinnis as Batman and offered him the chance to escape. Terry turned it down—he is the city’s protector, and he will uphold the legacy of Batman. Now Neo-Gotham will do everything in its power to destroy Terry, including creating brand-new villains to fight him.
