Honestly, he's pretty average but that line in your pic is 11/10. I was so hype.

It's a shame they killed him off so quickly. Batman Beyond really squandered its villains. The gangs, that apparently infested the streets, just end up going away at some point. The Royal gang end up losing so badly that they turn into a bickering bunch of finger pointers. Fucking Inque ended up being the villain that kept coming back the most.

He didnt die

Good design

He was an ok villian while trying to keep appearances with the public so his stock wouldn't tank but as soon as he was behind closed doors he was ok with letting out his true hatred for any other living creature lash out.

At first I was iffy at the end of op's ep when he was handed a towel and he just brushed it off; if this wasn't a "kids show" he would've just snapped that hazmat helmet off and kill that guy, but now it's kinda be tree thinking that he wasn't even worth killing and paying people off for a cover story.

I got the impression that his problem was that he was too sane to go all in on the "Walking Nuke" aspect of his powers. He genuinely wanted to go back to being normal, whatever high he got from his powers didn't change that.

He kept things interesting because he was behind everything, but was nothing but a bussinesman at the end, outside of his element, trying to keep the one thing he cared about, his succesfull life.
At the end lost everything, it was a good ride.

He's not, because he was a Batman Beyond character and that whole show sucked cock.

He died in a comic.

Because he cannot enjoy his sandwich.

>the thing you like is SHIT!
Classic Yas Forums Post™.

I've maintained that Batman Beyond was stupid trash for years, user. It isn't everything, but this specifically was garbage.

"Oh no! A teenager broke into my house and stole my stuff! Better make him a superhero! Don't worry Terry! You won't have to do any of the work. The suit will do all the heavy lifting and I'll do all the detective work! Oh, and you can kill people btw. I know I didn't but its not like you're really Batman."

>who are you?
>you killed my father
>do you have any idea of how little that narrows it down?

Man, that was so metal

>I've maintained
Yes, you sure did. You did. You are a very important person, so everything you say is automatically smart, and makes sense. And should be listened to by The People. If only more people listened to you, the world of western animation, and the Batman™ IP in particular, would be in a much better state, with BETTER writing!

He's literally big bad cooperate man with radiation powers.

You could also say he's Lex Luthor without the Superman homolust and he just does as he pleases instead of scheming. Simple and to the point.

Skeleton and Green is a winning combination

Because the competition was laughable. Blight was actually a villain Terry had personal grudge against, he had a lot of power and wealth to wreck havok even outside of his superpowers, he was charismatic and memorable, etc.
The rest of Beyond villains are just random punks with random superpowers that get punched in the face and that's it.

First of all Bruce has been picking up kids off the street for decades and Second Terry never killed anyone he just pushed them in the right direction and if they fell that's on them....just a bunch of unforeseen circumstances, yup.

imagine not watching the show and believing all the bullshit memes people used to post.

That and the
"You killed my father."
"Do you have the slightest idea how little that narrows it down?"
line are both great.

Shriek and Curare were also a consistent threat. Can't think of many other recurring baddies though.

>OOOOOH NEW BAD GUY BEAT OLD BAD GUY I'M SO HYPED!!!!!!
cringe

wat

this is a cheap trope.

this guy was a hard counter to freeze

yes I know
I think bringing Freeze back was unnecessary in the first place

>Not using enternadus in a ditto raid

He did. Timm wanted to subvert the expectation that Terry would have an archnemesis. None of the comics are canon unless people on the show were directly involved with them.

What did he mean by this?

Saved.

It's crazy how this makes you feel bad for the bastard.

PAXTOOOON

You sound fat

Naaah not really

I think the only villain that stuck around was Inque

Shriek also got a comparable number of episodes.

>You could also say he's Lex Luthor without the Superman homolust

funny thing is his VA Sherman Howard was Lex Luthor in the 80s Superboy tv show, he even auditioned for Lex in Superman TAS.

They really should’ve done more with the splicing as well.

Actually they kinda did as the movie had spliced thugs

Blight is Man of Murder to Terry's Bat of Murder.

You get the sense they respect each other and would start quipping.

Honestly the dry sense of banter between the two was top tier

Inque only got three episodes, two in the first season and the third not until Season 3. And Terry has never won an actual fight with her, as she always slaughters him to the point of death until someone bails him out (Bruce, her daughter, Superman, etc.).

Stalker was cool. It was neat to give Batman a Kraven sort of character.

I really wanted Red Claw to come back and start up her organization in Neo Gotham. She was a cool character, and it would be neat to have this foreign terrorist organization to contend with.

>Get cursed with super powers
>Roll with it and become a huge ham

The world is shut down. Should I binge-watch Batman Beyond?

Derek Powers was a shitty person. People that are already shitty before becoming villians are the best.

The bit at the end with Power's son, who tried to kill him was great.

"You made a bad enemy tonight."

"What are you going to do, testify against me in that mask?"

"Oh, I'm the least of your worries."

"[Blight] Melted with the sub..."

"Sure he did."

When you strike at the radioactive glowing murder-king, you must kill him.

Fuck yeah.

Batman Beyond had a bit of a thing for children killing their parents, didn't it?

Bets Blight's line ever. Followed up only by "You want to talk about Poison? I AM POISON!"

Cant think in a villian that didnt showed up at least twice.

Blight's alright.
But he's no Mad Stan.

Best and superior villian.

>I think the only villain that stuck around was Inque
Didn't she die?

enternadus is a nuclear dragon

skeletons are cool
glowing green stuff is cool
shooting beams of heat and radiation from your fingertips is cool
being a rich multibillionaire is cool
being a smug dick about all of the above is cool

Pretty sure it was left ambiguous?
Last shot involving her I could recall was with her daughter, scared that Inque might have survived.
