Batman Beyond Makes Zero Sense and Needs to Change
In the gritty, near-dystopian cityscape of Neo-Gotham, once ruled by Batman, Terry emerged as his successor. Originally, Bruce Wayne (Batman) had to resort to using a gun due to his deteriorating health, an act that contradicted his principles, leading him to consider abandoning the Batman identity. However, Terry seized the opportunity and redefined the role, restoring hope and justice in a city many had abandoned. Unfortunately, this backstory is specific to the TV show continuity and would not fit within the comic book universe.
