SPOILERS: The Final Words Of A Fan-Favorite Hero May Change BATMAN's Status Quo Forever
Today's issue of Batman saw the Dark Knight and Fastest Man Alive pay a visit to the Flashpoint timeline, but things took an unexpected turn and it could change Bruce Wayne's life forever...
In Batman #22, Batman and The Flash ended up in the Flashpoint timeline despite the fact it's no longer supposed to exist. We later learned that someone or something was holding it together, but they quickly changed their mind and an anti-matter wave ended up wiping it from existence.
Before that happened, though, Bruce Wayne was finally given the chance to spend some time with his father Thomas, the Batman from the Flashpoint Universe. Surprisingly, just as Bruce and Barry are about to make their escape, Thomas pleads with the Caped Crusader to give up this life and find happiness, something which was inspired by him learning about the existence of Damien Wayne.
Now that he's essentially been absolved of his guilt by his own father, will Batman listen and ditch the cape and cowl? That remains to be seen, but this could shake up his world in a big way now.
It looks likeDr. Manhattan could finally appear in the final part of this crossover, so stay tuned...
