User blog comment:Greenberet69/Nostalgia Tournament: Batman (Batman Beyond) vs Batman (Batman the Animated Series)/@comment-143604-20120326002419

Terry gets this, but only just barely. His suit gives him superhuman strength and reaction times, the ability to turn invisible and while he initially needed Bruce to hold his hand through everything, he grew into very much his own man over the course of his time in the cowl. Plus he has one major advantage- he know VERY deeply how Bruce will react to a situation for two reasons 1.) Bruce's life as Batman is damn well documented in future Gotham and 2.) It's how Bruce himself taught Terry to act. On the other hand, the more traditional Batman would have no idea who Terry is and be unable to cope with his strategies and have a harder time with his gear. This is a close one, but I have to finally give it to Terry.

Fun fact: I loved Batman Beyond and Terry's Batman is one of my favorite characters in DC, so I can't wait to use him in Marvel vs. DC next issue. (shameless self-plug because I'm a dick like that.)
