Batman Beyond HD Remaster Blu-ray Release Is Finally Coming
At long last, Batman Beyond is finally getting an all-inclusive HD remaster Blu-ray release this year. Having started and completed its brief run at the turn of the millenium, the cult classic animated TV series is getting the modern makeover it deserves in honor of its twentieth anniversary.
Following the intertwined stories of an elderly, retired Bruce Wayne and newly orphaned teenager Terry McGinnis, Batman Beyond was set in a hyper-futuristic Neo-Gotham. The show ran for only three seasons, having been shelved to make way for the equally excellent Justice League animated series in 2001, but its high quality and impressive talent (including Kevin Conroy as Bruce Wayne, Will Friedle as Terry, and even Mark Hamill reprising his role as Batman's archnemesis in Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker) has kept love for the show alive and well to this day.
Series fans' patience is finally paying off, as it was announced at today's San Diego Comic Con Batman Beyond 20th anniversary panel that the beloved show is getting all-new remastered Blu-ray and digital releases. All 52 episodes in their HD remastered glory, along with Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker and - in the case of the Blu-ray version - an exclusive chrome Batman Beyond Funko Pop! figurine, are being bundled together, with the Blu-ray collection being made available for purchase on October 29, 2019. For those not as keen on physical media and other tangible goodies, the digital release is coming earlier on October 15.
