I'm really digging the characterization they're giving Ghoul in the recent stories. Visually he was always my favorite of the Jokerz so it's interesting to see him really get the spot light though I can't help but feel that there's someone else above him pulling the strings.
Any other fans here?

Ive been really enjoying Batman Beyond in general... Ghoul has been pretty cool on this recent arc, I agree.
I really liked the Justice Lords storyline, too... seems a far better 'evil Justice League' than in the main DCU, IMO.

That story was pretty great, I really liked seeing that world again, though I'm not sure how I feel about Terry adopting the wings from the Justice Lord suite. When Bruce mentioned that he didn't care for the wings in the last issue I had a chuckle as I felt the same way.

I loved the conversation between Ghoul and Terry in the latest issue,
"Tell me how to stop him!"
"Where's the fun in that?"
"There is none, and there won't be if this continues. The Joker is dead and the original Batman is a bitter old man wasting away in lonliness. You want that to be you and I?"
There was never any real meaningful interactions between Ghoul and Terry before this point so it's not as powerful a moment as it could have been but it really highlights just how different Terry is from Bruce.

I'm really hoping they don't kill off Dick, I've been loving having him in the Beyond comics.

I thought I had just missed this for a weeks somehow, but it looks like the last issue(where Dick survived) was sadly the last. I really hope they return to this as Terry is a fantastic hero, and although I can still see him in Futures End I'd love to see his ongoing continue.

Just read the last bit of Batman Beyond 2.0 (which I get in print as 'Batman Beyond Universe') Nice to have everyone getting along at the end... kinda set up as if Kyle Higgins is done with the property... the end is such that the next series could be a clean slate.
I'm not reading Future's End, is the Terry McGinnis there related to any particular part of 'Beyond' or is there no references to his past.

Yeah, I liked the gang back together again at the end and it mirrored Dick's introduction to the Beyond Universe as well. The characterization is like how I'd imagine a slightly older Terry so in that respect it's Beyond and what little we saw of his relationship with Bruce seemed to fit too but I'd hate to think that Brother Eye really killed off the Beyond Universe so I don't think I'll view it as a future for the story as we know it, although I guess if Terry is successful that won't matter. I'd definitely recommend picking up Futures End when it comes out in trade if you enjoy beyond though as its pretty well done. I love how they made Alfred into an AI system installed in the suit.

I do like this animated series ... one of the most unique Batman shows on Television. I do like Terry McGinnis adaption quite well. I will try to share some great moments through You Tube if I can.

The show was amazing. Have you ever tried the comics? Store that I go to constantly sell out the comic before I get a chance to do so. I read some of my friends comics (sad to say that I read about 3-5 of them) and I thoroughly enjoyed reading them. Unfortunately, my comic book store went out of business and now I get my comics via mail through a dealership that specialize in DC COMICS. I can go to a Comic Book Store - the problem is that the store is a little over a hour drive and it's takes up too much of my time to go there. However, I'm planning on visiting that store about 4-6 times in 2015.

If you're not opposed to digital they have every issue of Batman Beyond from the Batman Beyond Adventures that came out while the show was on right up to present day on Comixology and Futures End features Terry as well.

Thanks for the tip here - but, I just don't like digital comics because of the way the comics is presented - I tried Comixology for 2-3 months and I just having some major issues with it. I just prefer the comic itself because it far more easier to read than the digital and my eyesight isn't all that good right now. Sorry.
