This version of Batman is not inherently evil, just more twisted and more violent. I like the way Bruce trained, very reminiscent of the origin of Bane.
I agree, this is what certainly could of happened in the main universe if he fell into his Anger and Madness from the loss of his parents. Instead of training with Martial Artists and detectives. He trained under Serial killers, Assassins, Cat burglars and mob bosses. Not a batman of justice. But a Batman of Vengeance and Punishment. Might be my favorite "Dark" Batman as of now.
My thoughts exactly. He's not a villain, he's more of an antihero in this world, which I like. Not all dark multiverse batmen should be evil, just not entirely good.
@@heraldofthunder6244 lol not saying its a bad character its just if it blows up in popularity they are going to give it the bat who laughs treatment and make him a character that comes out in like everything to the point it kills the interest in the character
@@Aristocratic13 haha I clicked his comment to say the same. Didnt notice until reading the comment. And I'm grateful it was pointed out. Those small details always enhance costumes like that so much.
They should make a version of Batman: Dark Multiverse where his parents were never killed, but as Bruce got older, enjoying the luxuries of wealth, he became consumed by greed. Eventually the Orange Lantern Ring finds him.
This world seems like it would make a great Elseworlds mini-series: A dystopian Gotham under joint rule by the Court of Owls and the League of Shadows, a population that veers on full revolt, and a cruel Batman who learned all his skills from super-villains. I hope this world gets expanded upon.
There were a couple things I wanted to see, like when we got shone those dark multi-verse versions of the heroes, like a zombie looking green lantern with the ring embedded in his head, or a flash with the bottom half of a mechanical spider, or a doctor fate with a necklace of body parts, I want to know the stories of all of those.
Hell, these individual stories of the Dark Multiverse are more interesting than what they're doing with T.B.W.L who has sadly been burnt out and overused like the Court of the Owls after their debut.
@s l e e p y m a c h i n e the whole bmwl went way too far like really killing a version of doctor Manhattan then taking his body? Then rigging the moebius chair? So dumb lol
@s l e e p y m a c h i n e yes. This. He was so interesting when he came out, much like these tales from the dark multiverse, but at this point the batman who laughs feels very very forced into the stories hes playing a huge part in.
I wouldn't mind seeing this as a prelude towards introducing a "new" Batman, you know, a "Thomas Wayne, Jr." who was mentally insane (who would have had been the Owlman of the Court of Owls, had it not been for the "accident").
Like one episode for each story, then in the finale or nearing the finale we'd get something like a mass crossover between all of them. Or something like that, I don't know... What do you guys think?
Actually, I’d like to point out that this version of Bruce wasn’t broken and descended into madness. He faked madness, which is explained on the list of skills he learned from the inmates of Arkham. One of which was how to fake a worsening psychological condition.
That's because he's not evil he's an extremely dark hero that has no qualms about killing those who have been harmful to the Innocents of Gotham for notice he started a war with the corrupt elites that were connected to both THE LEAGUE OF ASSASSINS and THE COURT OF OWLS not anyone good so I still believe he has some sense of justice and Morality that can't be compromise by someone like the batman who laughs at least I hope! Lol 💯🔥😁😉👍
Completely missed opportunity. I heard a rumor there were going to be more of these tales that would lead to an assembly of these Dark Universe characters that would be used to fight something...........huge later.
Yes, there are going to be more tales from the Dark Multiverse. They will involve Flashpoint, War of the Gods, Crisis on Infinite Earths, Dark Knights Metal. And the supposed "heroes" will be recruited by Tempest Fuginaut (I might have spelled that wrong) to fight in the Death Metal stories.
Tempus Fuginaut said something like that in Tales of Dark Multiverse: Knightfall page 6. He said that there was a Crisis coming, probably the biggest yet and that he was wandering the Dark Multiverse in search of worlds or heroes that might be helpful.
Honestly if the name wasn't already taken, The Arkham Knight would fit this character perfectly The fact that Bruce was trained by the inmates and is the culmination of that training just makes the name a perfect match, plus his design is amazing
Rob my man is always giving actual historical context throwing out ideas like this being like the Bolshevik revolution. Like Rob watching your videos I’ve learned so much about so many different topics.
a batman who isn't afraid to kill since he is a myth and nightmare in gotham while also isn't afraid to kidnap people and teach them a tough lesson. Making his home the new Arkham. The Batman Who Knows everything, The Batman Who is Silent.
This is cool. I kinda want to see Dark Multiverse versions of "Kingdom Come", "The New Frontier", "All-Star Superman", "Batman: Venom", "Batman: The Killing Joke", "Wonder Woman: Paradise Lost", "JLA: Tower of Babel", and "Batman Beyond".
I'm excited to see how they're gonna do the Flashpoint story. That alternate timeline was already dark enough and it was the event that kicked off the entire New 52.
I have to admit, I love how Jack Napier is pretty much one of this Batman's enablers in this universe. I just love to see how well Batman and Joker would actually work as a team.
This is an AWESOME one shot. The idea that essentially The Joker was personally involved in training this Batman is also super cool. This was actually a really well thought out What If. My compliments to the writers.
Comics Explained: "A rocket comes out of nowhere and shots the helicopter down." Comicstorian: "Then a rocket comes streaking across the sky and hits the helicopter,sending it crashing to the ground!"
I love Tales from the Dark Multiverse, because it’s not just Batman stories. It’s dark spins on all the classic stories. Lazarus contract, death of Superman, blackest night, infinite crisis, hush, flashpoint, knightfall. This is the best anthology DC series to date an I hope they keep this series running for as long as writers can make up interesting stories. Because these shorts are way too awesome not to be explored!
I'd love to see an alternate Batman where Thomas Wayne was the Owl King (leader of the Court of Owls) and his son Bruce was the Batman trying to revolt against his locked down over sanitized version of Gotham with the 'help' of the league of assassins (i.e. only Martha died, twisting both Wayne men in different directions)
In my mind it’s more likely that Jim Gordon was killed early into Gothams history before it became a city state - Gotham prior to Batman reshuffling things was massively corrupt and filled with dirty cops who were all on mob payrolls. It’s likely Gordon was either killed by said dirty cops, or he became Commissioner and refused to play ball with Thomas Eiliot (who at this time probably wielded large influence in the city) and so Thomas has Gordon killed. Also the “Gray Sons” are just the Talons but since they’re led by Dick he most likely renamed them. The title “Gray Son” refers to the Night Of Owls event a few years ago, in which its implied Dick Grayson is in fact the descendant of one of the Court’s Talons and was being groomed by them, but also by his ancestor who titled him “The Gray Son of Gotham”, implying he wanted him to take over things with the Talons or even the Court. President Lincoln March is most likely the same guy from Night Of Owls, but obviously we don’t know if it’s Earth 3 Owlman or just a guy named Lincoln March who’s corrupt and in bed with the League Of Asassins.

I really like the idea that this is what Gotham would be like if Bruce had never become Batman. Good incorporation of Dick becoming the Gray Son, and as screwed up as Jason's life is because of Bruce, at least he didn't become a full-on criminal. This Batman strikes me as a really good anti-hero though, and I would love a miniseries featuring him.
You know, I can honestly dig these little off shoots. It’s a refresher from everything going on and let’s all not lie it is still pretty cool to see how and who Bruce will morph into next. Who knows maybe next issue we will get a Batman that is a mix of Jean Paul Valley and Bruce...or maybe a Batman that is a mix of The Phantasm, or even better we get one that is a mix of Batman and Lobo. They could make literally hundreds of volumes for this off shoot all of which would be interesting in their own rights.
You know speaking l "Hush", I've always enjoyed your classic explains (Secret Wars I, Spawn). There are so many great classics which might not be relevant to what's going on now that I would enjoy hearing your take on whether it be stories like Hush or even some classic Claremont X-Men.
I think I want to go through this a few more times, but I think that…overall, this version of Batman has potential to tell some pretty good isolated stories. Like I know this is a tale from the DARK multiverse; but I also like the idea that this version of Batman could potentially continue on, and maybe have a type of positive character arc. I like the idea that Bruce still formulated the Batman identity as a form of vengeance, similarly to how he did within the main timeline. I think it’d be really cool, if in a future story, this version of Batman confronted a corrupt pair of Gothamites, who have a child around the same age as he was, when he lost his parents. Bruce’s mission, as well as what the Batman is within this world, would have an interesting dilemma to deal with then. I also really like the idea, that this version of Batman has a target, and doesn’t just kill everything.
I would think that the event that gave Gotham the chance to become the City-State that it is was the Earthquake that hit Gotham a while back. The U.S. turned a blind eye to the city in its major time of need.
I have to say that I'd love one of those tales that would just be an insane free for all between the Villians in Gotham after batman fell to one of them to determine who's getting the power and rules Gotham. Potential alliances, betrayals and power struggles among some of the most entertaining Villians in DC (with the batfamily potentially trying to somewhat handle the chaos)
This version of Batman is not inherently evil, just more twisted and more violent. I like the way Bruce trained, very reminiscent of the origin of Bane.

He’s more mislead than anything. Any morals or inspiration went out the window because he simply went Crazy
My thoughts exactly. He's not a villain, he's more of an antihero in this world, which I like. Not all dark multiverse batmen should be evil, just not entirely good.
Not really sure why those cat burglars and mob bosses are in Arkham though, shouldn't those people be in an actual prison than a mental hospital?
Truth be told they could make a cool video game based on the entire premises

This Batman is pretty damn dope! A series revealing his learning process & his adventures inside Arkham would be pretty damn cool!
This is really a better origin than the regular Batman stories! So much more full and in-depth
That's impressive that he could kill Cassandra and beat Tim down like that so quickly.
Now we need Alfred who laughs, Twobat,Bat-guin, Poison Bat-vy
In the darkest of times, one hero rose to the occasion, not to bring the entertainment we deserve, but the one we need....
This reminds me of the Count of Monte Cristo.I would have loved a story of the league of assassins vs the court of owls
I like how everyone of the bat family kills when not influenced by Batman
The whole Hush and Solomon Grundy combination makes it so badass
The closing music tells me it’s time for a mustache break.
This is the best of the Dark Multiverse Batman’s in storytelling and design by far now.
This one might be best dark multiverse Batman, probably as close to a hero as you can get
I'm honestly digging this Batman-Hush hybrid. He's not evil per say but he's clearly given in to his anger and resentment.
Wow. Who knew Rob is not only a DC/Marvel Master but he’s also a History buff too!
I have to admit, I love how Jack Napier is pretty much one of this Batman's enablers in this universe. I just love to see how well Batman and Joker would actually work as a team.
