The 1999 sci-fi animated series Batman Beyond featured a teenage Batman named Terry McGinnis (voiced by Will Friedle) in a cyberpunk future. This new Batman was mentored by the original Batman, Bruce Wayne (Kevin Conroy).
Though I remember when the series aired on the WB (remember that network?) I never actually saw it until a friend introduced me to it on HBO Max. It's rather shocking that this complex and striking series was a Saturday Morning show. The series has a very strong cult following, and is beloved by many fans.
I live in Venice, Florida, and I decided to build Batman Beyond out of shells and shark teeth I found on the beaches here. Batman's fingers, feet, and arm spikes are made out of shark teeth. Batman's legs and arms are made out of cerith shells. The iconic Batman Beyond pointy headpiece is made from boring turret snail shells.
