What if just one of Bruce's parents had died that night?
What if just one of Bruce's parents had died that night?
Well...
One of them takes Alfred's role and nothing changed
Why the fuck did they walk through a back alley?
Rich people are fucking stupid.
Depends which parent. If his mom he lives a normal life. If his dad he probably ends up in the mafia or something.
He'd probably try to improve the city by becoming a prosecutor or running for Mayor or something. Hell, philanthropy alone would be effective. No way he becomes Batman if he still has a his mom or his dad.
Was done in an Elseworld already.
Why the fuck did Chill shoot them after they handed over the money and valuables?
>Rob most respected philanthropist to exist
>Rob his wife too
>They comply
>Shoot them both
>Run away and leave the kid
Either you rob them and run, or you shoot all three so there's no eye witnesses if you're an evil bastard. Shooting two just gets you the death penalty or a life sentence ten times over when you inevitably get caught.
Wait ! wait ! wait ! wait ! wait ! wait ! wait ! wait !
I thought it was joker ?
Gotham was a lot safer back then.
I thought he was paid by Court of Owls to kill them, the robbery part was just for show
I like the interpretation where he gets spooked from Mr Wayne reaching
He'd kill the surviving parent with Alfred's help and become Owlman.
>What if just one of Bruce's parents had died that night?
Then you'd have Spiderman.
Why didn't he raped one of the parent first? It would give Batman the will to rape the Joker back!
idiot
the only time it was the Joker was in the Tim Burton movie
it doesn't come up a lot but when it does its typically a guy named Joe Chill, a small time gangster and arms dealer
fpbp
Also in the animated series, kinda, It was planned but never made
What if neither died?
Best versions always have Joe Chill just be desperate and jumpy, not even realizing he killed the Waynes until later on.
I think one retcon of the late 50s/early 60s was that it was some mafia boss who hired him to off old Wayne and Bruce was spared explicitly so that there would be a witness to it being just a robbery.
Is the mom the joker?
well apparently not safe enough
Tell me, my friend, have you ever danced with the devil in the pale moonlight?
>the one universe where Batman can tell Gordon "I already fucked the Joker. It didn't work."
