The Only Time This Character EVER Appeared in DC Comics! | Zeta Month
Ойын-сауық
Despite Batman Beyond getting tons of comic book coverage through various miniseries and guest appearances, his spin-off "The Zeta Project" NEVER got the comic book treatment, and in fact has only ever made one single teeny tiny cameo alongside Plastic Man and...well, you'll just have to watch and find out.
ZETA MONTH continues all of November!

"I was built to *FLAME ON!* But I will not flame on anymore."
Choosing Earth Mover as one of the members is such an inspired move.
The New Terrific Trio has so much good story potential in character study/development.
You know, for some reason the main duo of this show really made an impact on me. I liked to come up with stories as a kid and I named one of my characters after Ro and Zeta influenced a lot of my male characters. Even though I really didn't watch much of the show, or maybe because I was too young. I think I saw the last episode and didn't realize that it was the finale until now.
I think the ending skit confirms that all of Zeta Month is set on Thanksgiving.
4:10 As was that delivery Mattie, fuckin' perfect
I love the fact that you use soundtracks from the zeta project into your skits, hope to seem on KZread soon. Long live zeta
I absolutley agree! The New Terrific Trio is absolutely nuts!! Plastic Man, Zeta, and Earth Mover like whatttt!!!!???? What a cool team, I want more of this team haha Great video as always looking forward to the return of the Vanishing Point! Because it's Thursday!! Keep up the great work!!
Another banger for zeta month, can’t wait for the next one
Because it's Thursday let's goooooooo
And here I was thinking that Zeta had never appeared in a comic. Well, now don't I look like a fool.
Bring back Zeta Project!
a day of the week has never gotten me so emotional
There's a perfect concept for a Season Three episode: you start with the Terrific Trio being televised and we cut to Ro either watching this or following the group, leaving us wanting to know what happened. (Cutting to "24 hours earlier" is an optional cliche)
Honestly Old Plastic Man and Zeta as part of the Terrific Trio after the fall of the original team would be awesome, although I'd probably have kept one older member around just to add a layer of redemption for them (I thought Freon was really cool, and it keeps the team from being *too* OP y'know). At least if Zeta ever got a revival in the form of a Trio spinoff; we got Zeta doing double duty as the Reed/Thing type cause Zeta could also easily fill both of those roles character-wise, Plas on the other hand has Reed powers with a Torch personality, and then Freon is still pretty much the Invisible Woman. I'd totally watch that show.
Zeta Project was a fun little show but it needed more tie ins than just Batman. I think having old Superman would have been very cool in the show. Man of Steel and Man ... of Steel.

Hell yeah, VANISHING POINT
I wish that The Terrifics book that came out after Dark Nights: Metal could come back as a way to do this Terrific Trio in a sense, maybe shift out Earthmover for Metamorpho? Be a very ragtag team there!
It’s a bit hard to see earth mover working with others but I suppose he could. I would just be happy to see the insanely creepy and tragic monster again. Or maybe not. He is the stuff of nightmares
I feel like making a show off of a character never seen in comics before was too ambitious. Although I’d understand the yearn for make something original after adapting other people’s characters so many times.
Great Video Ted.
I'm kind of weirdly annoyed that Plastic Man and Earth Mover were chosen as analogues to Mr. Fantastic and the Thing respectively, but apparently Zeta wasn't chosen as a nod to H.E.R.B.I.E

How do you know the Zeta wasn't a nod to H.E.R.B.I.E.? It just seems too logical to be any other reason to include him.

@@danielriba716 Yeah, upon rewatching the quote doesn't specify one way or another. I guess I just initially interpreted that as confirmation that Zeta was randomly chosen. My bad!
I love how both Marvel and DC's idea of spoofing Mr. Fantastic was to make him flat, ala Flatman and 2-D Man.
shame we won't ever get to see Terrific Trio Beyond. They kinda give me Doom Patrol vibes.
I'd read that trio!
Because it's Thursday!
I need to figure out how the TF earthmover came back

@@dcauwatchtower thanks for the tip, I just got one off ebay and it wasn't even an insane price like i expected. $3 and some shipping. still would love an action figure but maybe it's time for me to man up and learn how to do customs.
*comment to feed the algorithm*
An interesting legacy to a failed superteam, but the inclusion of the Earth-Mover does ruin its canonical relevance... mayhaps they should have made an older Tamara (from "Mind Games") the third member.

He only had Superman for a few seconds, maybe he didn't get enough juice to "download" that info again. Who knows? Could also just be that the story wasn't gonna have room for that, so no need.
