Although Man-Bat never appeared in the revamped series The New Batman Adventures, Man-Bat's alter-ego Kirk Langstrom, together with his wife Francine Langstrom, makes a cameo during Bruce Wayne's wedding in the episode "Chemistry". In Batman Beyond, a new trend dubbed "splicing" involves fusing together animal and human DNA. The new Batman ends up captured by the Splicers' leader Abel Cuvier (aka Chimera) and is injected with vampire bat DNA which transforms Batman into a Man-Bat.
