In The New 52: Futures End, Terry McGinnis (of the acclaimed Batman Beyond animated series) is Batman 35 years in the future, and travels back in time to stop Brother Eye from becoming an unstoppable force, though arrives too late to prevent its creation. Some time ago, Bleeding Cool got their hands on a snap from the DC offices teasing the publisher's plans for the weekly title, which -- spoiler alert -- revealed that Terry is set to pull the plug on Brother Eye in issue #46. But apparently, things have changed. The site has been informed that he, one of the lead characters, will be killed off at some point before the book's conclusion. After only being introduced in Futures End #0 this past May, it's a little hard to believe DC would rid of such a fan-favourite face... whether this is the last we see of Terry, Bleeding Cool's not sure, so it looks like we'll just have to wait and see if this rumour turns out to be true. What do you think?

Please don't kill him off! There is a much smaller chance that he'll be resurrected later compared to say, the real Batman.

What @XF14 said. Get Bruce Timm and Paul Dini as a creative team behind Batman Beyond again; then you'll have my interest once more.

Death in comics just means that he'll be on vacation for a couple months or so.

Kill Cole Cash then have him make the finishing move in the final issue.

since nobody is gonna stay dead anyway, make the return epic.

Or here's an idea, and bear with me cause holy [frick]ing shit is it revolutionary. How about comic fans realized that *gasp* SHIT LIKE THAT'S NOT GOING TO HAPPEN! EEEEVVVVEEERRRR!

Nathan Fillion, Ackles and Elba are never gonna be cast as anyone comic book character in a live action project. Dini and Timm are never gonna helm the live action division and most importantly of all FILLION, ACKLES AND ELBA WILL NEVER BE CAST IN ANYTHING IMPORTANT!

Can people please let these stupid, delusional fantasies [frick]ing die already?

I mean really, what can they do? They can't introduce him in the present when future's end is over. So he dies, Future's End is almost over anyway right? So he either dies here and now, or he just stops getting talked about when Future's End is over. The only alternative would be to cancel Batman Beyond Universe and give Terry an ongoing that's in the future like Justice League 3000, only that would be not too distant future or something.

@ekrolo2

Too late, Elba is already Heimdall. Yeah, sometimes Marvel is stupid, wasting great in demand actors on characters no one gives a crap about.

I didn't say anything about fillion, ackles or elba...
and I don't see a problem with timm or dini helping out.
like, theyre producers. successful producers. it is possible.
and I didn't say helm, I said help out with.
u seem to stereotype certain types of ppl on this site, and for that sir:
