Summary:
Batman beyond, the movie: The aging Bruce Wayne hangs up his cape as the once invincible Batman. But when troubled teen Terry McGinnis stumbles upon the Dark Knight's secret, a new alliance is forged. And a triumphant new Batman is born. Golem: Willie Watt is an easy target for bullies like Nelson Nash and the rest of the jock crown of Hamilton High. But Willie has found a new friend: a two-story tall machine used for the construction of buildings. Once Willy is able to control the robot with his mind, his enemies must pay the price. The winning edge: Mason and his teammates have become addicted to a horrible steroid drug administered through a patch called a slapper. As coach looks the other way, the team is winning. But the jocks have resorted to stealing to feed their habit, and Batman is resolved to stop them by finding the source of their drugs.
