He would and then there'd be a big arc about how everything sucks without Bats(even though a better story would be Gotham not having costumed villainy without Batman) and then that version of Bats would go stop the past Bats from saving the Waynes.

Yes, Batpoint.

This has been done, and yes. Then Bruce is inspired by future bats and becomes Batman anyway.

If he never became Batman the Joker would have been killed early on and FAR more lives would have been saved.

He literally shoots Joe Chill in his stupid face the first chance he got in a Superman/Batman arc.

TURNS HE WAS JOE THE ENTIRE TIME

Wait, so instead of being inspired by his parents ' deaths, he's inspired by the man who saved them, becoming his own Legacy character?
Where's that from, it sounds amazing.

What hack editor let this slip past them?

Didn't Bats create a lot of his own villains?

Admittedly Gotham would still be an organized crime infested shithole with murder, theft, and extortion everyday norms, but insane clowns wouldn't be launching poison gas attacks that kill 600 people the 2nd Tuesday of every other month.

I don't think so. Joker by acident, but most of them would still be running around like Penguin, Mad Hater, Rhas, Bane and others.

This is just a Meme.

What about John and Mary Grayson? Do you think that Bruce would save them, given the chance, and risk losing Robin?

>>83201131
Yes, this has happened already.

He also went back in time to kill his own mom.
