The cast and crew of the beloved Warner Bros. Animation series Batman Beyond were at New York Comic Con today to reflect on the show’s 20th anniversary and preview the upcoming remastered Blu-ray release. Kevin Conroy (Bruce Wayne), Will Friedle (Terry McGinnis/Batman), and Lauren Tom (Dana Tan) were all on hand, along with producer Alan Burnett, casting director Andrea Romano, and James Tucker, who directed the Emmy-winning episode Eggbaby.
Released in 1999, Batman Beyond was a continuation and spin-off of Batman: The Animated Series and its follow-up The New Batman Adventures. All three shows shared several voice actors, including Kevin Conroy as Bruce Wayne. Spanning three seasons and a direct-to-video movie, Batman Beyond won two Emmy Awards and three Annie Awards for excellence in animation. Despite initial skepticism about a new Caped Crusader and the show’s dark, cyberpunk sensibilities, it gained an enduring following and spawned half a dozen comic book series.
