Black-ish' night story from Batman Beyond..

At the last NYCC I found a .50 cent box with almost the whole run of Batman Beyond, I finally got around to reading it. I think its one of the better cartoon adaptations .

Many felt this show/story had nowhere to go after "Return of the Joker", but I disagree. I think there was much more to say about Terry and Bruce.

The villains were generally interesting, Blight for sure (though technically he's more of a Lew Moxon character, since the one who did the killing was Mr Fixx.

Inque was a great villain, though it came as something of a shock to discover she must have been in her late 30's at least since she had a daughter in her late teens.

The sonic powered guy was Shriek, and also worth of mention were Spellbinder, Curare and the hunter guy whose name escapes me.

Thanks for the heads-up with the names of the villains, I couldn't remember them because it's been so long since I last watched it.

I did enjoy the variety of villains, though. Shriek was one of my favourites, because his Vendetta against Terry was something Terry had accidentally created on his own, and I liked Spellbinder, but Inque was always my favourite. There was just something special about her, that you felt a little sympathetic for her and what happened to her, even after she turned one of the few people who gave a damn about her into a melting blob of a freak.
