A civilian supporting cast for the heroes? To me it definitely feels like they don't really have meaningful lives or relationships outside of the League, which makes the world feel smaller.

I was under the impression that Blight being dropped was due to the execs not liking the corporate stuff and wanting more high school. Pretty sure that every comic adaptation has brought back Blight for a story (arc). The tie-in did, I think, Unlimited/2.0 had him in Industrial Revolution, and...

Only really have thoughts on Batman Beyond: Like others have said which is really gratifying as a Dana fan, give Dana more development, preferably a plotline that involves her finding out about Terry being Batman and how she deals with that. I'd also have Terry learning to be a more effective...

My personal choice for worst episode is "Joyride", followed by "Plague". Can barely remember those. For "Plague" I had to look up False Face in order to compare him to the comic's version, that's how little I remembered of him. Anyway, I'm mostly tempted by the behind-the-scenes extras.

I can think of one semi-example of a non-offending pedophile. Only a semi-example because even though he sought help once he realized he was sexually attracted to children, everyone treated him as if him molesting a child eventually was a foregone conclusion and didn't do anything to help him...

I don't have the same level of distaste for mental illness being used as a gimmick for villains, probably because I haven't been through anything close to what you have, but I have a similar opinion. It's one reason I have for preferring Batman Beyond, as most of Terry's rogues were depicted as...

I think I know why the series feels so disappointing. It's not Terry's story; in fact, Terry feels like he's mostly around to get tossed around by the villains while Bruce does all the thinking and feeling. The few character things Terry has when he's not getting tossed around have mostly...

I think the point was to make fans never trust DC's hype, never expect a change to the status quo, and especially never expect Batman to have anything that makes him happy. I've seen theorizing that the wedding will actually happen in issue 100, but the response even from the theorists is that...

I doubt that they're cackling villains, but I wouldn't be surprised if they deliberately set the show up to fail. Like it says in Volpe's comic about the early screening of GLTAS, the execs lead things to get the results they expect and want. In this case, they presumably wanted comedy shows and...

It can also be used to gauge interest in the shows, alongside DVD sales. Hopefully demonstrate that they weren't unpopular, though that's an empty victory at this point.

A new Batman Beyond series. Reboot or continuation, I'll take either. I'd like a series with more continuity so we can see Terry improving and more of Bruce reconciling with his family. Also, more of the future Justice League.

They did sell the public on a Batman character who wasn't Bruce or any established character before, with Batman Beyond... though it had BTAS to build on and Bruce was still a major character. Which is probably how they'd do a Batwoman series, keep Bruce as a major supporting character, even if...

Or maybe the new head of Cartoon Network will play ball with DC. They might even bring back a show that got screwed over during Snyder's anti-action-show tenure.

From what I've heard, not originally. The sexual encounter that resulted in Damian was consensual, then it got retconned to Talia drugging Bruce to conceive a son. I have no idea how the lab stuff got into it, but it was probably later.

That's one of the reasons I was drawn to Dana from the start - that she wasn't the usual love interest who the hero only won over after he became a hero, but was Terry's steady girlfriend from the start. The fact that her relationship with Terry predates him becoming Batman could've added extra...

The problem I have with Max becoming a full-fledged field partner is that most of the times when she tried to get in on the action, she wound up in danger and Terry had to bail her out. It felt like she had a higher assessment of her field skills than she actually possessed, and she never showed...
