The cliffhanger was predictable, but I’m not sure it’ll push this story forward. Might have something to do with the names, maybe? Overall, this is a fast-paced first issue that drops a whole lot of twists and sets up some intriguing new directions, but its roots as a dark-and-edgy reboot hold it back a little. Meanwhile, Harley is raising her twins, now teenagers, and while her son Bryce seems well-adjusted, her daughter Jackie is quickly turning into Punchline Jr.

There are some unique twists to his places in the Bat-family as well. Jason Todd, as head of the guards in the prison, is able to find some peace in his complex relationship with his mentor (and will be getting a spinoff soon, it looks like). Bruce is still locked up, largely keeping peace in the prison and awaiting a parole hearing. Via DC Comics,īut the segments that focus on Bruce and the old supporting cast are much stronger. It’s a full-on noir reinvention of the classic cartoon, and I’m not sure the two tones really mesh well together, especially with DC doing a much more faithful continuation of the show. Sure enough, it soon tears through guards and largely takes over for Terry as he flies towards his destination-the base of Derek Powers, who has taken over much of Wayne Enterprises and plans to create a new, more militarized version of the Bat-legacy. As the issue opens, a young Terry McGinnis raids the ruins of the Batcave and recovers an experimental Batsuit equipped with flight and razor blades. Not surprisingly, it’s a reinvention of the most famous next-generation Batman story-Batman Beyond. But this new series gives us a time jump and a new twist. Ray: It looked like the White Knight universe was over, with Bruce Wayne in prison for a long time and the Harley Quinn miniseries tying up loose ends.
