The young Bruce Wayne was born into a life of wealth and luxury, and had a relatively happy childhood. Until one fateful day, when Thomas and Martha Wayne treated their son to a night of the movies. The Waynes made the wrong decision, however, to go home by foot. When passing through the ominously labeled Crime Alley, Bruce's parents were shot to death by a seemingly common criminal, leaving their little boy all alone. Bruce was cared for by Alfred Pennyworth, the live-in butler at Wayne Manor, and Dr. Leslie Thompkins, who continued to invest time into Bruce's development, including psychological and emotional, after meeting him during his parents' murder. To this day, these are the two people whom Bruce trusts completely, even more than his costumed superhero allies.
Dealing with the traumatic loss of his parents and growing up an orphan, Bruce vowed to do all humanly possible so that no one else would feel his pain. It became an obssession. And while Alfred and Dr. Leslie did all they could to help Bruce move on with his life like a normal child, they could not stop Bruce's descent. After finishing school, Bruce travelled the world to collect and hone various physical/martial arts and technological skills that would help his cause. When he returned to Gotham City, he decided that a costumed persona was necessary. Inspired by a bat that came crashing through Wayne Manor's window, the fear he wished to instill into the hearts of his criminal victims took shape as the Batman.
Batman's reputation as an outside-the-law vigilante that intimidated both criminals and unsure police officers quickly grew. To this day, many still believe he is merely urban legend, as he avoids the mass media as much as possible. It wasn't long before Batman met the G.C.P.D.'s Captain Jim Gordon, who first regarded him as a threat, but later found that he could be of major assistance in solving cases that involved extraordinary criminals or supervillains. Captain Gordon even began utilising a giant strobe light with a bat symbol on it called the Bat-Signal to call on Batman for help. Batman also worked closely together with the District Attorney, Harvey Dent. However, other law enforcers were not necessarily as trusting of Batman, including the gruff Detective Harvey Bullock. Nonetheless, the G.C.P.D. realised Batman's usefulness.
One of Batman's earliest cases was the capture of the criminal known as the Red Hood. In the last moments of the chase, the Red Hood fell into a vat of acid, that not only made his skin pale white and deformed his face into a permanent wide smile, but also rendered him insane. From then on, the criminal would go by the name of the Joker and become Batman's most testing nemesis, vowing revenge on him and his loved ones. Around the same time, a cat-burglar who adopted the costumed name of Catwoman began her spree on Gotham City, much to the chagrin of the G.C.P.D. and Batman. Yet the two had always had strong sexual tension between them that would often twist Catwoman's moral bearings. In a year-long serial murder case dubbed the "Holiday killings," Batman once again worked together with the D.A. Harvey Dent. Unfortunately, the case resulted in a mob boss throwing a bottle of acid at Dent's face, deforming the affected left half of it. Dent blamed Batman for the unfortunate accident and takes on the name of Two-Face.
One day, Bruce Wayne spent an evening out to see the Haly Circus, which starred the renowned Flying Graysons, trapeze artists extraordinaires. But it wasn't to be an enjoyable event, when during their show, John and Mary Grayson's ropes were sabotaged, and without a safety net, they fell to their deaths, leaving behind their son Dick Grayson without family. Bruce empathised with the young boy, given his circumstance as a sudden orphan without both parents similar to his own experience. So when the court denied the Haly Circus legal guardianship of Dick due to a circus' questionable environment, Bruce decided to adopt him. Bruce quickly grew a sense of nurturing paternal qualities, which also resulted in entrusting his double life as Batman to his young ward, and eventually training him to be Batman's sidekick, Robin. Together, the two would sweep the streets of Gotham City of its growing undesirable criminal elements, including the appearances of the Penguin, the Riddler, and Poison Ivy.
Batman would soon meet with Earth's beloved protector, Superman of Metropolis, and begin a strenuous relationship that has endured over the years. While Batman may use unconventional methods that take certain liberties and conflicts with Superman's principals, he also understands that the Man of Steel's superpowers and reputation amongst the global populace come in more than handy on the field. Because of Superman's otherworldly abilities and his alien nature, Batman has also always felt threatened by him. Later, the two would join up with other crimefighting pioneers of their era, Aquaman, Black Canary, the Flash, Green Lantern, and Martian Manhunter of the Justice League of America, which doubled its membership over the years and became the world's greatest superhero team and defenders of the planet.
Throughout his tenure in the Justice League of America, Batman's detective intellect always helped in saving the planet and its people many, many times. But he never lost sight of the smaller scale order he needed to maintain within the crime-infested streets of his hometown of Gotham City. To his surprise, a new crimefighter called Batgirl revealed herself with a more feminine costume of Batman's own to help him and Robin. Though it would be a long time before Batman & Robin and Batgirl entrusted one another with their true identities, they were still an effective team when it came to cleaning up the streets of Gotham. Dick Grayson eventually grew up to leave Gotham and continue his studies at Hudson University. There, he maintained the masked persona of Robin and even banded together with other proteges of JLA members, Aqualad, Kid Flash, Speedy, and Wonder Girl to become a sort of "junior Justice League," though calling themselves the Teen Titans as to not live in their mentors' shadows.
Meanwhile, Batman still managed Gotham on his own, and whenever necessary, calling on the help of Batgirl. He soon met an enigmatic woman named Talia, whom he rescued from the evil Dr. Darrk. However, it turned out that all this was a test by Talia's father, Ra's Al-Ghul. Talia had been enamoured by Batman, wanting him as her husband, and naturally her father had wanted to test his worthiness for her hand in marriage. It didn't matter anyway because Batman refused such a ridiculous request. But Ra's had kidnapped Robin and forced Batman to marry his daughter. However, Talia's weakness in her love for Batman proved more than once to land in his favour by helping him out of tight situations, sometimes even betraying her father in the process. Since then, Ra's Al-Ghul has become one of Batman's greatest enemies.
Over the years, Batman's concern of Robin as a point of weakness that could easily be taken advantage of by his enemies grew stronger and stronger. It all culminated when the Joker shot Robin. Bruce did all he could to convince Dick to give up the Robin persona. Dick obliged and distanced himself from Bruce as he already had a new family amongst his peers in the New Teen Titans. A wedge had been driven between their relationship. Ironically, Bruce soon met and adopted another orphan by the name of Jason Todd. Realising his mistakes with Dick, Bruce trained Jason to become the second Robin, also sidekick to Batman. Dick willingly passed down the name and costume to Jason, while himself adopting the new persona of Nightwing.
When Bruce Wayne's good friend and business associate, Lucius Fox, was kidnapped by Baron Bedlam to the kingdom of Markovia, Batman asked assistance from the JLA, but was refused by the team on political grounds. Disgusted, Batman quit the JLA and set up his own, more covert, team going by the name of The Outsiders, consisting of himself, Black Lightning, Halo, Katana, Metamorpho, and the Crown Prince of Markovia, Brion Markov, a.k.a. Geo-Force. Batman's leadership of the team would not last long, however, when his knowledge of the returned Baron Bedlam's plans to take over Markovia were kept secret from Geo-Force and the others. The team decided to continue without Batman. Soon, Batman returned under the Justice League banner when he helped form the new United-Nations-sanctioned Justice League International.
Meanwhile, Batman's family of "Gotham knights" would undergo its own radical transformations. When a vengeful Joker escaped Arkham Asylum, he shot Batgirl, leaving her paralysed from the waist down. He then proceeded to target and capture Robin. In the most saddening moment of Batman's life since his own parents' murder, Batman came too late, finding the lifeless body of Jason Todd laying in the debris of an explosion. Batman then vowed never to open himself to another sidekick, and descended into a more violent crusader.
Not long after, a new costumed vigilante appeared in Gotham City by the name of the Huntress, who had adopted the masked persona to avenge the murder of her mafia family by another. Batman monitored her carefully, and was appalled by her careless tactics and a vengeful drive that was darker than even his own. Several attempts to take her under his wing and guidance have always failed, and Huntress remains the black sheep of the "Bat-family" to this day. Batman himself, who was still mourning the loss of Jason Todd, continued his reckless rampage on Gotham's criminals like a monster untamed. When a case involving Two-Face resulted in the incapacitation of Batman and Nightwing, an adolescent boy by the name of Tim Drake, who was smart enough to figure out their true identities, adopted the Robin persona and rescued them. Though Bruce first refused to take on anyone as another Robin, Tim's insistance and obvious usefulness finally persuaded him that the Batman needed a Robin to not only pass on his legacy, but to also make him a role model, hence keeping his darker side in check. Combined with Barbara Gordon (the former Batgirl) vowing to use her computer skills to become Oracle, a database and information broker, and the arrival of an assassin of the Order of St. Dumas, Jean-Paul Valley, a.k.a. Azrael, Gotham's knights were stronger than ever before.
But this golden age would not last forever. The mysterious Bane came to town, and claiming to fear only the image of the bat, threatened to take down Batman. At first, Batman disregarded his empty threats. But Bane delivered by destroying Arkham Asylum, thereby releasing most of Batman's foes all at once. While the Joker, Killer Croc, Poison Ivy, the Riddler, Scarecrow, and many others proceeded to wreak havoc on Gotham City and its knights, Bane meticulously planned the Dark Knight's demise. Weakened after all the chaos, Batman was confronted by Bane, who was able to defeat him and break his back.
The wheelchair-bound Bruce asked Azrael to fill in Batman's shoes, and he agreed. With his new Batman armour, Jean-Paul Valley was able to defeat Bane, and fully inherited the guise from Bruce. But Jean-Paul's newfound power in the name and his temper got the better of him. In a confrontation with the villain named Abbatoir, Jean-Paul (as Batman) let him fall to his death, and "Batman's" relationship with Commisioner Gordon was strained. Jean-Paul grew more and more aggressive and even severed ties with Bruce and Dick. Bruce regretted his decision and became determined to fully recuperate and regain the mantle of Batman, even resorting to employ the help of the assassin Lady Shiva to train him. Once Shiva agreed he was ready, Bruce once more donned his Batman costume and confronted Jean-Paul about the errors of his ways. However, Bruce was not yet at full capacity, and asked Dick (Nightwing) to assume the Batman costume for a short time.
While Batman's personal troubles were over for now, Gotham City would experience many problems of its own. A man infected with what was called the Apocalypse Virus, or "The Clench," came into Gotham and unintentionally spread the virus. A plague fell upon the city and even created a state of quarantine enforced by the National Guard. Batman and the knights attempted to track down survivors of the virus in order to extract their blood and possibly create a cure. For once, Gotham's heroes and villains cooperated in order to save the whole city. Time became of the essence when Robin and Alfred contracted the virus, but eventually Azrael came upon the cure in old scriptures of the Order of St. Dumas.
But Gotham's woes were far from over. Not long after, a large scale earthquake decimated the whole city. Batman's home was no longer. Several of Batman's foes took advantage of the chaos that ensued. It was not an easy task, yet Gotham's knights had no choice but to juggle helping rescue survivors and containing the major crimes. Looting and cannibalism continued throughout Gotham, and eventually most of the populace abandoned the city. Where once Batman was physically broken, he was now morally depleted. Bruce Wayne took one last chance at saving his city by lobbying the Government at Washington D.C. for support. But what resulted was Gotham's situation deemed hopeless and its excommunication from the United States into an official "No Man's Land" territory. Broken, Bruce stayed away from Gotham and sought comfort in the loving arms of Talia. Meanwhile, Gotham descended into anarchy and gang wars. When Batman finally returned, he found that Superman had started handling the situation and that Lex Luthor had begun a scheme to take over Gotham's land. But Batman's pride turned Superman away from his turf and Bruce Wayne's corporate smarts overcame the threat of Luthor owning Gotham. Eventually, Bruce Wayne and Wayne Enterprises would help Gotham back on its feet, even transforming it into a more modern city.
Scorned, then-President of the United States Lex Luthor framed Bruce Wayne for the murder of his girlfriend, Vesper Fairchild. For a while, Batman abandoned his Bruce Wayne identity in order to solve the case. He distanced himself from the rest of the Gotham knights, but when it was all over, ended up revealing his identity to earn their trust. Batman eventually found another side to the Catwoman who was trying to redeem herself for her past misdeeds, and also confided his true identity to her, much to the chagrin of his friends.
Though Batman has no superpowers, he is at the peak of human abilities and near-perfection physically. He has accumulated many forms of martial arts to use in fighting crime, and even has considerable technological know-how to create various gadgets to help on the field. All that, combined with his high I.Q. makes Batman considered one of the most dangerous men on the planet. Batman bases out of his Bat-Cave, an underground headquarters beneath Wayne Manor. In a trophy room are keepsakes of his rich history as a hero, including an oversized giant replica of Two-Face's coin and Jason Todd's Robin uniform, among other things.

The young Bruce Wayne was born into a life of wealth and luxury, and had a relatively happy childhood. Until one fateful day, when Thomas and Martha Wayne treated their son to a night of the movies. The Waynes made the wrong decision, however, to go home by foot. When passing through the ominously labeled Crime Alley, Bruce's parents were shot to death by a seemingly common criminal, leaving their little boy all alone. Bruce was cared for by Alfred Pennyworth, the live-in butler at Wayne Manor, and Dr. Leslie Thompkins, who continued to invest time into Bruce's development, including psychological and emotional, after meeting him during his parents' murder. To this day, these are the two people whom Bruce trusts completely, even more than his costumed superhero allies.
Dealing with the traumatic loss of his parents and growing up an orphan, Bruce vowed to do all humanly possible so that no one else would feel his pain. It became an obssession. And while Alfred and Dr. Leslie did all they could to help Bruce move on with his life like a normal child, they could not stop Bruce's descent. After finishing school, Bruce travelled the world to collect and hone various physical/martial arts and technological skills that would help his cause. When he returned to Gotham City, he decided that a costumed persona was necessary. Inspired by a bat that came crashing through Wayne Manor's window, the fear he wished to instill into the hearts of his criminal victims took shape as the Batman.
Batman's reputation as an outside-the-law vigilante that intimidated both criminals and unsure police officers quickly grew. To this day, many still believe he is merely urban legend, as he avoids the mass media as much as possible. It wasn't long before Batman met the G.C.P.D.'s Captain Jim Gordon, who first regarded him as a threat, but later found that he could be of major assistance in solving cases that involved extraordinary criminals or supervillains. Captain Gordon even began utilising a giant strobe light with a bat symbol on it called the Bat-Signal to call on Batman for help. Batman also worked closely together with the District Attorney, Harvey Dent. However, other law enforcers were not necessarily as trusting of Batman, including the gruff Detective Harvey Bullock. Nonetheless, the G.C.P.D. realised Batman's usefulness.
One of Batman's earliest cases was the capture of the criminal known as the Red Hood. In the last moments of the chase, the Red Hood fell into a vat of acid, that not only made his skin pale white and deformed his face into a permanent wide smile, but also rendered him insane. From then on, the criminal would go by the name of the Joker and become Batman's most testing nemesis, vowing revenge on him and his loved ones. Around the same time, a cat-burglar who adopted the costumed name of Catwoman began her spree on Gotham City, much to the chagrin of the G.C.P.D. and Batman. Yet the two had always had strong sexual tension between them that would often twist Catwoman's moral bearings. In a year-long serial murder case dubbed the "Holiday killings," Batman once again worked together with the D.A. Harvey Dent. Unfortunately, the case resulted in a mob boss throwing a bottle of acid at Dent's face, deforming the affected left half of it. Dent blamed Batman for the unfortunate accident and takes on the name of Two-Face.
One day, Bruce Wayne spent an evening out to see the Haly Circus, which starred the renowned Flying Graysons, trapeze artists extraordinaires. But it wasn't to be an enjoyable event, when during their show, John and Mary Grayson's ropes were sabotaged, and without a safety net, they fell to their deaths, leaving behind their son Dick Grayson without family. Bruce empathised with the young boy, given his circumstance as a sudden orphan without both parents similar to his own experience. So when the court denied the Haly Circus legal guardianship of Dick due to a circus' questionable environment, Bruce decided to adopt him. Bruce quickly grew a sense of nurturing paternal qualities, which also resulted in entrusting his double life as Batman to his young ward, and eventually training him to be Batman's sidekick, Robin. Together, the two would sweep the streets of Gotham City of its growing undesirable criminal elements, including the appearances of the Penguin, the Riddler, and Poison Ivy.
Batman would soon meet with Earth's beloved protector, Superman of Metropolis, and begin a strenuous relationship that has endured over the years. While Batman may use unconventional methods that take certain liberties and conflicts with Superman's principals, he also understands that the Man of Steel's superpowers and reputation amongst the global populace come in more than handy on the field. Because of Superman's otherworldly abilities and his alien nature, Batman has also always felt threatened by him. Later, the two would join up with other crimefighting pioneers of their era, Aquaman, Black Canary, the Flash, Green Lantern, and Martian Manhunter of the Justice League of America, which doubled its membership over the years and became the world's greatest superhero team and defenders of the planet.
Throughout his tenure in the Justice League of America, Batman's detective intellect always helped in saving the planet and its people many, many times. But he never lost sight of the smaller scale order he needed to maintain within the crime-infested streets of his hometown of Gotham City. To his surprise, a new crimefighter called Batgirl revealed herself with a more feminine costume of Batman's own to help him and Robin. Though it would be a long time before Batman & Robin and Batgirl entrusted one another with their true identities, they were still an effective team when it came to cleaning up the streets of Gotham. Dick Grayson eventually grew up to leave Gotham and continue his studies at Hudson University. There, he maintained the masked persona of Robin and even banded together with other proteges of JLA members, Aqualad, Kid Flash, Speedy, and Wonder Girl to become a sort of "junior Justice League," though calling themselves the Teen Titans as to not live in their mentors' shadows.
Meanwhile, Batman still managed Gotham on his own, and whenever necessary, calling on the help of Batgirl. He soon met an enigmatic woman named Talia, whom he rescued from the evil Dr. Darrk. However, it turned out that all this was a test by Talia's father, Ra's Al-Ghul. Talia had been enamoured by Batman, wanting him as her husband, and naturally her father had wanted to test his worthiness for her hand in marriage. It didn't matter anyway because Batman refused such a ridiculous request. But Ra's had kidnapped Robin and forced Batman to marry his daughter. However, Talia's weakness in her love for Batman proved more than once to land in his favour by helping him out of tight situations, sometimes even betraying her father in the process. Since then, Ra's Al-Ghul has become one of Batman's greatest enemies.
Over the years, Batman's concern of Robin as a point of weakness that could easily be taken advantage of by his enemies grew stronger and stronger. It all culminated when the Joker shot Robin. Bruce did all he could to convince Dick to give up the Robin persona. Dick obliged and distanced himself from Bruce as he already had a new family amongst his peers in the New Teen Titans. A wedge had been driven between their relationship. Ironically, Bruce soon met and adopted another orphan by the name of Jason Todd. Realising his mistakes with Dick, Bruce trained Jason to become the second Robin, also sidekick to Batman. Dick willingly passed down the name and costume to Jason, while himself adopting the new persona of Nightwing.
When Bruce Wayne's good friend and business associate, Lucius Fox, was kidnapped by Baron Bedlam to the kingdom of Markovia, Batman asked assistance from the JLA, but was refused by the team on political grounds. Disgusted, Batman quit the JLA and set up his own, more covert, team going by the name of The Outsiders, consisting of himself, Black Lightning, Halo, Katana, Metamorpho, and the Crown Prince of Markovia, Brion Markov, a.k.a. Geo-Force. Batman's leadership of the team would not last long, however, when his knowledge of the returned Baron Bedlam's plans to take over Markovia were kept secret from Geo-Force and the others. The team decided to continue without Batman. Soon, Batman returned under the Justice League banner when he helped form the new United-Nations-sanctioned Justice League International.
Meanwhile, Batman's family of "Gotham knights" would undergo its own radical transformations. When a vengeful Joker escaped Arkham Asylum, he shot Batgirl, leaving her paralysed from the waist down. He then proceeded to target and capture Robin. In the most saddening moment of Batman's life since his own parents' murder, Batman came too late, finding the lifeless body of Jason Todd laying in the debris of an explosion. Batman then vowed never to open himself to another sidekick, and descended into a more violent crusader.
Not long after, a new costumed vigilante appeared in Gotham City by the name of the Huntress, who had adopted the masked persona to avenge the murder of her mafia family by another. Batman monitored her carefully, and was appalled by her careless tactics and a vengeful drive that was darker than even his own. Several attempts to take her under his wing and guidance have always failed, and Huntress remains the black sheep of the "Bat-family" to this day. Batman himself, who was still mourning the loss of Jason Todd, continued his reckless rampage on Gotham's criminals like a monster untamed. When a case involving Two-Face resulted in the incapacitation of Batman and Nightwing, an adolescent boy by the name of Tim Drake, who was smart enough to figure out their true identities, adopted the Robin persona and rescued them. Though Bruce first refused to take on anyone as another Robin, Tim's insistance and obvious usefulness finally persuaded him that the Batman needed a Robin to not only pass on his legacy, but to also make him a role model, hence keeping his darker side in check. Combined with Barbara Gordon (the former Batgirl) vowing to use her computer skills to become Oracle, a database and information broker, and the arrival of an assassin of the Order of St. Dumas, Jean-Paul Valley, a.k.a. Azrael, Gotham's knights were stronger than ever before.
But this golden age would not last forever. The mysterious Bane came to town, and claiming to fear only the image of the bat, threatened to take down Batman. At first, Batman disregarded his empty threats. But Bane delivered by destroying Arkham Asylum, thereby releasing most of Batman's foes all at once. While the Joker, Killer Croc, Poison Ivy, the Riddler, Scarecrow, and many others proceeded to wreak havoc on Gotham City and its knights, Bane meticulously planned the Dark Knight's demise. Weakened after all the chaos, Batman was confronted by Bane, who was able to defeat him and break his back.
The wheelchair-bound Bruce asked Azrael to fill in Batman's shoes, and he agreed. With his new Batman armour, Jean-Paul Valley was able to defeat Bane, and fully inherited the guise from Bruce. But Jean-Paul's newfound power in the name and his temper got the better of him. In a confrontation with the villain named Abbatoir, Jean-Paul (as Batman) let him fall to his death, and "Batman's" relationship with Commisioner Gordon was strained. Jean-Paul grew more and more aggressive and even severed ties with Bruce and Dick. Bruce regretted his decision and became determined to fully recuperate and regain the mantle of Batman, even resorting to employ the help of the assassin Lady Shiva to train him. Once Shiva agreed he was ready, Bruce once more donned his Batman costume and confronted Jean-Paul about the errors of his ways. However, Bruce was not yet at full capacity, and asked Dick (Nightwing) to assume the Batman costume for a short time.
While Batman's personal troubles were over for now, Gotham City would experience many problems of its own. A man infected with what was called the Apocalypse Virus, or "The Clench," came into Gotham and unintentionally spread the virus. A plague fell upon the city and even created a state of quarantine enforced by the National Guard. Batman and the knights attempted to track down survivors of the virus in order to extract their blood and possibly create a cure. For once, Gotham's heroes and villains cooperated in order to save the whole city. Time became of the essence when Robin and Alfred contracted the virus, but eventually Azrael came upon the cure in old scriptures of the Order of St. Dumas.
But Gotham's woes were far from over. Not long after, a large scale earthquake decimated the whole city. Batman's home was no longer. Several of Batman's foes took advantage of the chaos that ensued. It was not an easy task, yet Gotham's knights had no choice but to juggle helping rescue survivors and containing the major crimes. Looting and cannibalism continued throughout Gotham, and eventually most of the populace abandoned the city. Where once Batman was physically broken, he was now morally depleted. Bruce Wayne took one last chance at saving his city by lobbying the Government at Washington D.C. for support. But what resulted was Gotham's situation deemed hopeless and its excommunication from the United States into an official "No Man's Land" territory. Broken, Bruce stayed away from Gotham and sought comfort in the loving arms of Talia. Meanwhile, Gotham descended into anarchy and gang wars. When Batman finally returned, he found that Superman had started handling the situation and that Lex Luthor had begun a scheme to take over Gotham's land. But Batman's pride turned Superman away from his turf and Bruce Wayne's corporate smarts overcame the threat of Luthor owning Gotham. Eventually, Bruce Wayne and Wayne Enterprises would help Gotham back on its feet, even transforming it into a more modern city.
Scorned, then-President of the United States Lex Luthor framed Bruce Wayne for the murder of his girlfriend, Vesper Fairchild. For a while, Batman abandoned his Bruce Wayne identity in order to solve the case. He distanced himself from the rest of the Gotham knights, but when it was all over, ended up revealing his identity to earn their trust. Batman eventually found another side to the Catwoman who was trying to redeem herself for her past misdeeds, and also confided his true identity to her, much to the chagrin of his friends.
Though Batman has no superpowers, he is at the peak of human abilities and near-perfection physically. He has accumulated many forms of martial arts to use in fighting crime, and even has considerable technological know-how to create various gadgets to help on the field. All that, combined with his high I.Q. makes Batman considered one of the most dangerous men on the planet. Batman bases out of his Bat-Cave, an underground headquarters beneath Wayne Manor. In a trophy room are keepsakes of his rich history as a hero, including an oversized giant replica of Two-Face's coin and Jason Todd's Robin uniform, among other things.
