• Burchett on the New 'Batman Adventures'
Burchett on the New 'Batman Adventures'' - by
Jim Harvey
Toon Zone was able to catch up with Terry Beatty, inker and
occasional penciller on Batman: Gotham Adventures, to get
his thoughts on the upcoming revamp of the animated Batman comic
book. Batman: Gotham Adventures will end with issue #60
in March, and will be replaced with the revamped The Batman
Adventures.
"I will say I've thoroughly enjoyed working with Scott Peterson,
Tim Levins, and Bob Smith on Batman: Gotham Adventures,
and think we did some terrific work together," said Beatty. "But
I'm also looking forward to seeing what Ty Templeton and Dan
Slott - and the other artists we may be working with - bring to
The Batman Adventures re-launch. And though I have worked with
Ty before, he was strictly the writer, with another penciller,
Rick Burchett mostly involved (Ty inked his own cover pencils).
We've never worked together as a penciller/inker team - and I'm
very much looking forward to the challenge and pleasure of
inking him."
Although writers and pencillers come and go, Beatty has been a
mainstay on the animated Batman comics. He's been inking the
comic adventures of the animated Batman since Batman & Robin
Adventures.
"In October I started my seventh year inking the animated-style
Bat-books. I'm hoping to keep going with it as long as they'll
let me." concluded Beatty.
