So I was watching Batman Beyond today (What?) and it made me think of technology that should be around so probably got lost. Using genetech to get animal traits. Like SURGE on demand.

QUOTE (Christian Lafay @ Jan 7 2012, 07:50 PM)  So I was watching Batman Beyond today (What?) and it made me think of technology that should be around so probably got lost. Using genetech to get animal traits. Like SURGE on demand. "Don't you try to psychoanalyze me, boy!" Don't worry, we're all geeks here (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Also, while it's not "on demand", it's possible to "splice" in transgenetic alterations (Aug, pg 93), so the tech does exist, it's just slower than the "needs to fit in a 30 minute time slot" tech of Batman Beyond. (Building that version of the Batsuit is doable, except for the flight part... although, given that it took the resources of Wayne Enterprises, a megacorp in its own right, to create in the first place, I think that having such a thing show up as a one-off item could be... interesting.) |

The flight was a little odd. But it was in a time when hover cars were common. For now will just have to settle for pretending to be a Gargoyle. Or that new personal rocket wing suit that just got made IRL.

Um, the Suit was almost Thirty-years old when Terry first put it on. It was the last version of the Batsuit before Bruce's heart gave out.

I thought the last version was the powersuit that MADE Bruce's heart go out. The one he strapped on one more time to take on Inque.
