Usually, Superman is the one who faces Bizarro, but in the third issue, Batman went toe-to-toe with the mixed-up villain and he was armed to do it. In the story, Ra's al Ghul, Bizarro and Wonder Woman's enemy Artemis worked together to bring chaos to the world, and the three heroes were forced to unite to fight the triple threat. Written and drawn by Matt Wagner, "Batman/Superman/Wonder Woman: Trinity" was a three-issue series about the first meeting between DC's greatest heroes.
Even more amazing, the suit was still flexible as regular cloth. One major feature was the suit's cloaking ability, allowing Batman to become invisible to the naked eye. It also worked as an exoskeleton to enhance the wearer's strength and speed. Instead of relying on a plane, the Batman Beyond batsuit had its own wings and limited flight capabilities, as well as weapons such as retractable claws, projectile batarangs and grappling guns. With guidance from Wayne, McGinnis fought new enemies such as the shape-shifting Inque, the master of sound Shriek and older versions of Mister Freeze and the Joker.Įven though McGinnis' batsuit was created by Wayne in 2019, it was still considered cutting-edge in 2039. Set in the distant alternate future of 2039 where an elderly Bruce Wayne had retired, the mantle of Batman was taken up by teenager Terry McGinnis. The ex-child star nicely summons a manly, vein-bulging rage in a few scenes, maybe letting loose something pent up during all those years playing the milquetoast goodie in Left Behind sequels and Growing Pains reunion specials.Beginning in 1999 as an animated TV show, "Batman Beyond" was a cyberpunk take on the Batman mythos created by Bruce Timm, Paul Dini and Alan Burnett. It helps that Alex Kendrick hasn’t given himself the lead role in this one, instead handing that assignment to Kirk Cameron, the only pro among the movie’s otherwise all-local, all-volunteer cast. Can hundreds of thousands of multiplex-invading Promise Keepers be wrong? Don’t answer that, but let it first be said that Fireproof is a huge improvement on the two earlier films made by the Georgia pastor/filmmaker/brother team of Alex and Stephen Kendrick, including 2006’s prayer-wins-football-games hit, the $10 million-grossing Facing the Giants. Fireproof is obviously critic-proof though it hit theaters sans reviewer screenings, it had been heavily screened for pastors, who bought group tickets for their congregations, ensuring plenty of sold-out opening-weekend showings.
