Robert Vance's son and Bobby Vance's father who was said to have passed away and was not seen on this series. This character eventually made an appearance on Justice League Unlimited (2004) where he was actually shown in his younger days in Task Force X (2005) the as an engineer on the Justice League Watchtower who was secretly a spy working for the U.S. Government Cadmus program .
Will Friedle (Terry/Batman) and Rider Strong (Bobby) starred together for years on the hit sitcom, Boy Meets World (1993) as Eric Matthews and Shawn Hunter respectively. Funny enough, in one episode, Eric attempted to impress a girl by claiming to be Batman
Stacy Keach, who voices Robert Vance, also voice Carl Beaumont/The Phantasm in Batman: Mask of the Phantasm (1993).
It's possible that Robert Vance got the idea of transferring himself into Batman's Batsuit from when Brainiac downloaded into Lex Luthor's body (in the Superman: The Animated Series episode "Ghost in the Machine" and the Justice League Unlimited episode "Divided We Fall").
Terry McGinnis fighting the Batsuit is strikingly similar to the dream fight between Bruce Wayne and Batman in the Batman: The Animated Series (1992) episode Perchance to Dream (1992).
