Over the years, The Dark Knight has been reinvented more times than just about any other comic book superhero, but none of the past reincarnations of Batman have had the guts to show him as an old man who no longer has the physical strength to fight the next generation of evildoers. So he does the next best thing and takes on a protégée and trains him to be his replacement instead of his tight-wearing sidekick. The animation is as good as any of the Batman’s to come before, but what makes Batman Beyond work so well is the open antagonism between the old Bruce Wayne and young Terry McGuiness.
