Cool Videos: Batman Beyond animated short from Darwyn Cooke!

Yet another Batman animated short has popped online, this time featuring the caped crusader in his futuristic form in Batman Beyond. Based on the three-season series that had an aging Bruce Wayne mentoring a young Batman named Terry McGinnis in a high-tech suit, this new short is part of Batman’s 75th Anniversary celebration and is a great compliment to the already released short from Bruce Timm. Featuring the original voices from the animated series, Kevin Conroy as Bruce Wayne and Will Friedle as Terry McGinnis/Batman, the short pits the two Batmen against a very familiar-looking foe and is a terrific ode to yet another great Batman animated series that’s been laid to rest. If anything, these new shorts are making my itch to see a new series that can match the style, heart, and creative energy of these old shows.
