{Background: “Terrence "Terry" Wayne, legally known as Terrence "Terry" McGinnis, is the second Batman, who operates in the future, following Bruce Wayne's retirement from the role. Like his predecessor, he fought crime and injustice in Gotham City, and elsewhere.” + “During Amanda Waller's encounters with the Justice League, she had particularly developed an admiration for Batman and came to believe that, someone like the Dark Knight would always be needed. Well watching Batman age, Waller had realized that he would not be around forever and that, the Dark Knight would either have to retire or be killed at some point. Drawing on her old Cadmus contacts, Waller began Project Batman Beyond; A scheme to give Batman a biological "son", who would likewise be compelled to take up a life as his successor. After obtaining a sample of Batman's DNA, a young couple was later found that, were almost identical psychological matches to Batman's father, was later found that, were almost identical psychological matches to Batman's father, Thomas Wayne and his mother, Martha Wayne; Warren McGinnis and Mary McGinnis. During an apparent routine flu inoculation, Warren was actually administered a nanotech solution that overwrote his reproductive DNA with Bruce's. A year later, Terry McGinnis was born, the biological son of Mary and Bruce. As genetics were not enough a factor in creating another Batman, Waller had later hired an assassin to murder McGinnis's parents at the same age and under very similar circumstances as his predecessor to try to recreate these conditions. The hired assassin, Bruce's former romance, Andrea Beaumont had recognized what the murders had done to Wayne and subjecting another child to the same horrors would be hypocritical for their cause. Beaumont heavily argued with Waller, with the latter later realizing she had crossed a line, so she cancelled the project.” + “Rough youth: Sometime after McGinnis's brother, Matt McGinnis was born and his parents divorced, he had turned to be a juvenile delinquent with Charlie "Big Time" Bigelow, and then became a member of a street gang run by Bigelow and had his fair share of run-ins with the Gotham Police Department in his early teens, even serving a three-month stint in juvenile hall. But as McGinnis had returned to high school, he had shed some of his worst habits and had acquired Dana Tan as a girlfriend. McGinnis still had trouble relating to his father, Warren, who accused him of being irresponsible. On what proved to be the last night of Warren's life, McGinnis stormed out of the house after an argument. While defending Dana from another street gang, McGinnis found himself being chased by them to the outskirts of Gotham City. He fled onto the grounds of Wayne Manor, where an aged Bruce Wayne appeared and assisted him in defeating the Jokerz. The strain of the fight placed substantial stress on Wayne's heart, and he collapsed. Terry helped Wayne into the mansion and then stumbled upon the entrance to the Batcave. Bruce kicked Terry out, but Terry returned home to find it covered in Jokerz graffiti and learned his father had been murdered. Grief-stricken, Terry looked through his father's belongings and found a disk that Warren had taken from his employer, Derek Powers, the new head of Wayne-Powers. Realizing there was more to his father's death than first appeared, Terry rushed back to Wayne Manor and demanded to be let in. As Bruce examined the disk in the Batcave, Terry noticed the latest generation Batsuit that Wayne had used before retiring. The disk revealed that Powers was making a deadly nerve gas to sell to the government of Kaznia, but Bruce refused to get involved and ordered Terry to go to the police. On the way, Terry encountered Powers himself who knew the disk had to be somewhere and it was taken. Terry managed to escape from him, however and ran off. Returning to Wayne Manor, he tied up Ace and stole the Batsuit. When Bruce discovered the theft, he admonished Terry through the suit's communicator, but Terry was adamant on confronting Powers. Bruce retaliated by shutting the suit down, in the middle of a confrontation with Powers's security guards. Terry pleaded with Bruce for a chance to prove himself and persuaded Wayne to re-activate the suit and let him carry on as Batman for the time being. Bruce's decision resulted in Terry sabotaging Powers's operation; the stores of the chemical weapon were lost in the Gotham River, along with Mr. Fixx (Powers's henchman and Warren's murderer) while Powers himself was inadvertently exposed to his own weapon. Convinced that there was still a need for a Batman, Bruce visited Terry early one morning at his mother's home and under the pretext of paying back a previous act of kindness hired Terry as his personal assistant. Terry would run various errands and take care of various tasks for Bruce in his civilian identity. In part, this was a cover for secretly training him as Gotham's new Dark Knight. Terry's job also allowed him to earn much needed money to help support his family since his father's death.” + “Crime fighting career: Terry McGinnis quickly found himself walking in the footsteps of his mentor in many ways. Like his predecessor, Batman amassed his own rogue's gallery of villains, including Blight(Derek Powers's mutated form after radiation therapy), the shape-changing Inque, the telekinetic high school nerd, Willie Watt, sound engineer, Shriek, the Royal flush Gang, former psychologist, Spellbinder and the assassin, Curaré. At one time, Terry also found himself taking after his mentor in getting entangled without meaning to with a woman who was in reality a criminal—Melanie Walker. After this encounter, Bruce related by telling Terry of his own complicated relationship with Selina Kyle. Terry also gained a collection of allies. These included Barbara Gordon, the Commissioner of the Gotham Police Department, despite initially facing a hostile reception from her due to her old resentment towards Bruce, eventually proving his capabilities to her. Terry's most valuable ally by far was school friend, Maxine "Max" Gibson stumbling on his secret identity when they were both threatened by a rogue student and turned her considerable brains and energy to his aid. Max had first-class skills with research, data retrieval and computer hacking. More than that, she helped Terry maintain his "normal" life as a high-school student and was always there with a sympathetic ear (as Terry jokingly called her his "Alfred" after she ordered him never to address her as Robin). However, Terry was different from Bruce in many ways. Unlike his mentor, he had a childhood (of sorts) and also faced the demands of a normal youth his age: keeping up with his grades, his girlfriend Dana, and the responsibilities of an eldest son in a family which included his mother, Mary McGinnis and his kid brother, Matt McGinnis. Although it was often a greater strain for him to maintain his secret life with Mary, Matt and Dana, Terry was able to find a source of solace with Bruce, Barbara, Max and Ace. Batman occasionally faced some of his predecessor's old enemies or the legacies they'd left in their wake, including Mr. Freeze now in a new body and suit equipped with freeze gun gauntlets. a group of super-strong teenagers using Slappers made from Bane's venom; the longevous, Ra's al Ghul; and somewhat inevitably, the reborn Joker himself, who was his mentor's greatest enemy and who would also prove to be Batman's greatest challenge. Having cheated death by transferring his consciousness into a microchip implanted on Tim Drake, Joker returned to menace the new Batman by combining all his old cunning and dangerous unpredictability with a much stronger genetically engineered body, Tim's wealth of technical knowledge and martial training as Robin. At first, the young Dark Knight and the old Clown Prince of Crime both made the mistake of underestimating each other; Batman dismissed the "clown" as an ineffective prankster, while Joker dismissed the "Bat-Fake" as a "rank amateur" dependent on advice from his elderly predecessor. Both were proven incorrect, but Batman turned the former into a truism to win the day, putting a final end to Joker; this earned him the heartfelt respect not only of Bruce, but also of Barbara and Tim. Although he came to prefer operating alone like his predecessor, Batman was once offered membership in the Justice League Unlimited by Superman. Though he may have been more tempted than his predecessor was at the time, Batman would decline, put off by the other Leaguers' willingness to endanger his life. In the process, however, Batman almost single-handedly saved Superman and in turn the world, from an alien invasion, likewise earning the respect of the JLU. Batman eventually would later join their ranks.”}

{Abilities: “Although Terry did not possess anything close to Bruce Wayne's years of training in martial arts and the science of detection, he was still a capable street fighter and an agile gymnast, before taking up the Batman mantle. He is also a skilled wrestler and was once part of his school's wrestling team, until he was unfairly and wrongfully kicked off the team for using an illegal move on his bully, Nelson Nash after the latter had provoked him by spitting on Terry. Initially the Batsuit gave Terry several advantages in battle, including flight, enhanced strength and protection from attacks. But he engaged in regular and rigorous training to ensure he did not become completely dependent on it, and soon developed an Olympic-level physique and lightning-quick reflexes. Terry was also somewhat less dependent on the formal combat styles Bruce had employed in his day and was quite willing to use dirty tricks whenever necessary; a fact mentioned by the Joker after literally being hit below the belt. Terry received further training from Kairi Tanaga, who commented that one of his weaknesses was a tendency to lower his guard on the left side much like his mentor before him. Terry also extensively studied Bruce's crimefighting archives to develop his skills at medicine, mechanics, and investigation. Although he was not formally trained as a detective and as per Amanda Waller, did not have Bruce's high intellect, he had above-average intelligence and often made intuitive leaps that surprised his mentor. Due to his past as a juvenile delinquent, Terry was also very street-smart, which enabled him to go undercover in many situations and often talk his way out of a tight fix. One of Terry's most important strengths comes in the form of his very nature as a "new" Batman. Rather than attempt to mimic the original Batman, Terry often adopted his own unique tactics to defeat his foes. The most shining example of this was seen during his confrontation with the Joker, when Terry who as Batman often quipped, unsettled the villain through mind games instead of physical combat, taunting the Joker with biting wit and finally laughing at the Joker - something that was beyond the old Batman, enraging the latter, and creating an opening for him to finally defeat and destroy him for good.” + The current Batman draws much of his ability from his power suit. While wearing it, he has the following abilities: Enhanced Strength (Able to lift approximately 6 tons)” + “Flight (Flight speed of 60mph)” + “Armour Protection (Able to completely ignore unarmed strikes from the average human male)” + “Invisibility (Concealed from normal human vision only)” + “Enhanced Senses (Including darkvision, infravision, ultra-hearing and improved hearing through physical obstacles like windows.)” + “Finger-Mounted Claws” + “In-Built "Batarang" Arsenal (Including bladed, flash-bang, smoke, tangle and grapple Batarangs) In addition to his suit, Batman himself has trained in various athletic and intellectual disciplines. He is a skilled unarmed fighter with a focus on wrestling-style moves. His skill with throwing batarangs is also impressive.”} {Weakness: “Terry McGinnis's weaknesses include being a human with limited experience compared to Bruce Wayne, reliance on the Batsuit's battery and tech (vulnerable to hacking/viruses), emotional impulsiveness, and a tendency to leave his left side exposed in fights; he also lacks Bruce's deep detective training and superpowers, making him susceptible to powerful tech villains, radiation, and getting overwhelmed by threats beyond the suit's capabilities” + Batsuit Vulnerabilities: “Hacking & Viruses: The suit's connection to the Batcave makes it a target for advanced hackers (like the Jokerz) who can control or disable it. Battery Drain: Overusing advanced suit functions depletes its power, leaving him vulnerable. Physical Damage: The suit isn't invincible and can be torn or damaged by sufficiently powerful opponents. Radiation: The suit offers little protection against radiation.” + Human Limitations & Inexperience: “No Superpowers: He's still human, relying on tech and training to overcome foes, unlike metahumans. Impulsive & Emotional: His teenage nature means he's often rash and needs Bruce to keep him focused on the bigger picture. Less Experienced: He lacks Bruce's decades of experience and sometimes lowers his guard (specifically his left side).”} {Equipment: “Terry McGinnis donned the last Batsuit ever built. Initially developed presumably to compensate for Bruce Wayne's advancing age, Terry inherited the suit when he assumed the mantle of the Dark Knight. The suit incorporated most of the features and gadgets of previous costumes, such as batarangs, grappling guns, bolas, smoke pellets, tracers, and retractable claws, among other things. It also had new features, such as a cloaking device and flight capability, but for long range flights, Terry generally used an upgraded version of the Batmobile.”} {Extra info: “batsuit: Suit: A sleek, form-fitting black power suit made of advanced synthetic material.” + “Key Features: Large red bat-ears on the cowl, a prominent red bat symbol on the chest, and red webbing under the arms that forms wing-like glider flaps.” + “Enhancements: The suit provides incredible strength, speed, and flight capabilities, making him appear more powerful than his civilian self. The Batsuit is a close-fitting power suit made from thin yet powerful material. Externally it resembles a black full-body suit with a red bat symbol on the chest, large bat-ears from the head and red "webbing" between the arms and body which form a short cape. The suit is not overtly metallic in nature, appearing more like some sort of synthetic clothing material at first glance.”}
