 | Batman Beyond - Return of the Joker In the stories pilot episode we see approximately 30 years into the future an aged Bruce Wayne is having increasing difficulty handling criminals he once subdued with ease. One day a heart attack forces him to betray a lifelong personal principle by threatening a criminal with a gun, and subsequently Wayne decides to retire from crimefighting permanently. The story then jumps 20 years from the conclusion of present day DCAU (as evident by the commentary found on Batman Beyond: Season One). Gotham is a city of the future equipped with staggering high rises and hovering/flying vehicles. Wayne is now a virtual recluse living in bitter isolation with no companion but his guard dog Ace. It is implied by virtue of his continuing to fight crime long after he should have, his retaining the costumes worn by Robin, Nightwing and Batgirl and a conversation that even before he had a heart attack something horrible transpired that caused Wayne to sever his ties with the Justice League and forbid his disciples from ever again assuming their alter-egos. The events which caused all of this was finally revealed in Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker. One evening while out on a walk Wayne gets involved with a fight between Terry McGinnis and a pack of Jokerz; the exertion aggravates an apparent heart condition and Terry has to help him back to Wayne Manor. While staying at the mansion, Terry discovers the entrance to the Batcave, and later returns to "borrow" the Batsuit to avenge the death of his father (who had accidentally become involved in the revelation of a secret biological weapons development). As crime and corruption are beginning once again to rear their ugly heads in Gotham, Wayne feels he has no choice but to allow Terry to assume the Batman alter-ego. Young McGinnis continues the battle against crime tutored by Bruce, and aided by a new black-and-red, high-tech batsuit that augments his abilities, fires Batarangs from the wrists, flies using jets fired from the feet, allows eavesdropping through a hypersensitive touch microphone, and provides camouflage abilities. He has his own rogues gallery, such as the seductive shapeshifter Inque, the confusing hypnotist Spellbinder, the bitter, deaf sound expert Shriek, the most deadly of the League of Assassins Curare, the insane terrorist Mad Stan, and the African hunter Stalker. However, on occasion he is also forced to face his mentor's old foes, such as the atrophying Mr. Freeze, Bane (elderly, wasted, and dying from his consumption of Venom, the substance that gave him his strength), the immortal Ra's al Ghul, and even the reborn Joker. Terry's greatest initial foe is Derek Powers, a ruthless billionaire who took over WayneCorp and was later accidentally mutated into a radioactive monstrosity who called himself Blight. Powers had Terry's father murdered after Mr. McGinnis discovered Powers was in the process of developing a biological weapons program. The first season ended with a showdown between Batman and Blight aboard an abandoned nuclear submarine, where Powers was in hiding after his identity as Blight was revealed to the world by his ambitious son Paxton, who planned to usurp his father as chairman of Wayne-Powers. Maxine "Max" Gibson (voiced by Cree Summer) is a 17-year old computer genius who discovers Batman's secret identity. Since she discovered Terry's alter-ego she's been helping him with everything from computer hacking, to babysitting, to coming up with excuses for Terry's girlfriend Dana Tan. Max plays an integral part in Batman's war on crime, essentially as his Alfred. Terry also finds one other ally, though a begrudging one: Barbara Gordon, the former Batgirl. Having followed in the footsteps of her father, James Gordon, Barbara is now Police Commissioner of Gotham City, and she is unhappy with the idea of a new Batman, especially a teenager, as she is still haunted by the same event that caused Wayne to go into isolation. However, knowing from personal experience that she cannot deter Terry anymore than she could have been deterred from being Batgirl, she relents, possibly also out of respect for her mentor, the original Batman. Also, passing lines between Barbara and Bruce suggest that, at the time of Batgirl's retirement, the suit had bullet holes in it that had not yet been repaired. It is implied early on in the series that Barbara and Bruce were in love for a period of time. It is also confirmed during Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker that Dick Grayson (Nightwing) is still alive in this time period. |
 | The Dapps - There Was A Time feat Alfred Ellis* Rare Record............label I DENTIFY Record labels owned by James Brown Over the course of his career James Brown owned and operated several different record labels, which he used primarily to release his own productions of artists associated with his revue. Try Me Brown founded his first label, Try Me Records, in 1963 under the auspices of Syd Nathan's King Records. Named after Brown's 1958 R&B hit, Try Me released a handful of singles by performers and groups associated with the James Brown Revue, including Brown's backing band (recording under the name The Poets), Johnny and Bill (Johnny Terry and Bill Hollings, both members of The Famous Flames), and female vocalist Tammy Montgomery, who went on to record for Motown as Tammi Terrell. It ceased operations in the wake of Brown's 1964 contract dispute with King. Brownstone Brownstone Records, founded in 1970, was a joint venture between Brown and his longtime associate in the music business Henry Stone (an alliance reflected in the label's name). It was established as an outlet for recordings by members of Brown's revue who King had declined to record, such as former Famous Flames member Bobby Byrd and his wife Vicki Anderson. The label released eleven singles in 1970 and 1971 before it was superseded by People Records. People People Records, Brown's most successful and prolific label, was founded in 1971. Like its predecessors, People was used to release recordings by performers associated with the James Brown Revue, including Lyn Collins, Bobby Byrd, Sweet Charles and The J.B.'s. It also recorded some musicians who did not regularly perform with Brown. Brown himself appeared in a supporting role on many People releases, playing organ or contributing backing vocals. Initially distributed by King, People was acquired by Polydor on July 1, 1971 when Brown signed with that label. Unlike Brown's previous labels, it was commercially successful for a while; it released a number of charting singles, including the #1 R&B hit "Doing It to Death". People eventually folded in 1976, concomitant with the dissolution of The J.B.'s. The label's output was later anthologized in a series of three CDs released by Polydor titled James Brown's Funky People.

 | 2 Teens Arrested In Connection With Officer's Death Police arrested two teens Saturday who they said are behind the deadly shooting of an off-duty police officer. Detectives said they solved the case in two days with the help of tipsters, WESH 2 News reported. Residents called CrimeLine and officials with that agency said it was multiple tips called in that lead to the two teens, Davins Smith, 19, and Hugo Terry, 17, who police said killed Alfred Gordon in the parking lot of a Bank of America Thursday. Smith, police said, has already spent a quarter of his life in jail. He is a convicted felon who committed his first armed robbery at 14, police said. Orange County Sheriff Kevin Beary, Orlando Police Chief Michael McCoy and CrimeLine Supervisor Barbara Bergin held a news conference Saturday to discuss the updates in the case. |
