Terry's family is being held hostage by a crook who's boosted technology so powerful, he doesn't even understand what he has and the Justice League intends to neutralize the threat with full aggression. But Neo-Gotham is Batman's town, and Bruce Wayne doesn't intend to give up one iota of control over the situation! With his loved ones' lives on the line, which way will Terry turn under the pressure?
Ryan Benjamin's art is growing on me. I like his version of the League, and his world is solidifying, creating a nice balance between the animated style of the cartoon and the more realistic style of the DC Universe. There is good in this comic, to be sure, but it feels like a lot of filler to get us to the main event next month. Read Full Review
The cliffhanger ending last issue didn't fizzle in Beechen's as the series gets to issue #2. This volume isn't as deep or as heavily mired in past continuity that the previous mini-series was, and is easily accessible by new readers. And even though the future of the DCU is a dark one, this issue isn't heavily mired down in deep depressing moments, and is an interesting read for fans of Batman. I like where Beechen is taking us so far, and seeing future Barda drawn up right by Benjamin and Stanisci makes the issue easy on the eyes. Overall Batman Beyond #2 is worth picking up and earns 3.5 out of 5 Stars. Read Full Review

And in classic Batman Beyond style, there is a new take on a classic villain concept to further flesh out Batman Beyond's mythology. Read Full Review
