GKO: MADHOUSE
Here you will find our rambalings on all area's of Batman, interviews and speical features!
Writer Adam Beechan talks with CBR about the dramatic events the Batman: Beyond Mini-series and the differences between the series and original 1999 animated series.
"I've written it with the idea in mind that it is part of DC continuity," Beechen told CBR News of the change that's made the miniseries strike with fans. "I wanted that to be a definite possibility, so I've referenced a lot of characters and events from Batman's past. Whether or not that ultimately proves to be the case 20 or 30 years from now, I don't know. I had talked with my editors on the book about what this was going to be, and we wanted this to be a book that could tie into mainstream DC Universe continuity if that's the way DC chose to go. They weren't 100% sure that's what they wanted to do when we started the book, but we wanted to leave them the opportunity of being able to say, 'This is the definitive future history of the Batman character.'
"The great thing about me writing 'Batman Beyond' is that no matter what I'm going to do, there will always be this period of time between what's happening in the Batman books now and what we know is going to happen with the Terry McGinnis character in 'Batman Beyond' in the future. Any number of things can happen between there that will make the 'Batman Beyond' future the actual future of Batman or not. And there are any number of explanations that can be made in the intervening years as to why it is part of DCU continuity or not – or why there are inconsistencies or not. I got handed a pretty good set of cards in that I could tell whatever story I wanted to and we can decide down the road whether it's 'official' continuity or not."
