Bruce Wayne learned the power of fear as a boy, watching in frozen horror as his parents, two of Gotham City’s leading citizens, were robbed and murdered by a common thug. At their graves, Bruce swore a solemn vow to avenge their deaths. Relying less upon his billion-dollar inheritance than on his iron will. Bruce traveled the globe, gradually training his mind and body to the peak of human perfection while studying under the best criminologists, detectives and fighters the world had to offer.
Returning home, Bruce took to the streets as a vigilante crimefighter. Despite his skills, however, he lacked an edge, a presence, until a startling omen reminded him of the lesson he’d learned the night his parents died.
To be truly effective, he would need more than gadgets and resources. He would have to become a creature of the night – dark, frightening – able to strike terror into the hearts of criminals. As a child, fear was his weakness. As a man, it became his weapon.
Bruce Wayne was apparently killed by Darkseid and his replacement has been Dick Grayson who has formerly known as the original Robin and Nightwing.
