Artist Darwyn Cooke has created a new short from the Batman Beyond animated series. According to The Huffington Post, it first premiered during the Warner Bros. panel at WonderCon.

The video embedded above features a fight between Bruce Wayne’s successor Terry McGinnis and what looks to be a red-eyed version of the original Caped Crusader. Longtime Batman voice actor Kevin Conroy plays the elderly Wayne and Will Friedle reprises his role as McGinnis.

io9 reports that DC Entertainment is celebrating the 75th anniversary of Batman all throughout April. During “Bat Month,” the company has been releasing “all sorts of Bat-goodies” including a short from Batman: The Animated Series co-creator Bruce Timm.
