"BatLog: I've arrived on this New Earth more or less intact. My resources, my allies, and the legend of the Batman do not exist here. Diana arrived alongside me and I am left to wonder if more allies or at least versions of them have managed to make the transition to this side as well. As for me it is a return to basics as I am once more a shadow, a wraith in the night, an urban legend. This suits me just fine. Parallel Universe or not criminals are still a cowardly and superstitious lot and I will use that to my advantage. Gotham has no true twin here, the proximity to New Jersey notwithstanding. Chicago however, crime ridden with shadowed alleys and a history of corruption and mob association possesses Gotham's soul if not her body. That is where I will stay, down in the dirt and amongst the elements I find oddly comforting. And if any of the old enemies have come here they are going to wish they had stayed back in the old world."
Allies: The Batfamily: Nightwing , Robin, Batgirl, @oracle and Alfred. My staunchest allies and those few I would consider family. If they or alternate versions of them are here I will locate them and together we will discover a way back home." Wonder Woman and I have been allies for many years and have fought countless battles alongside each other. A warrior beyond reproach she is often the voice of reason, capable of being a hardened soldier when need be or offering a hand of friendship if appropriate. She excels at diplomacy yet understands the need for violence. As one of the only familiar faces around here, her presence is more than appreciated." "The Justice League: Members of the League have long been allies and I can't imagine that this Earth couldn't use a League as much as home did. If a new League forms I'll maintain part-time membership. I still work better alone, but sometimes they need my help."OTHER: Huntress : a wildcard I don't see eye to eye with on the best day, she could have been a member of the Batfamily if she'd follow my rules. As it is, she's a member of the Birds of Prey and thus Oracle's problems. Considering her understanding of the mob she does come in useful at times, assuming her more bloodthirsty tendencies can be curbed.
Zatanna : the Zatanna Zatara I knew was a childhood friend. I learned much from her father regarding sleight of hand and stage magic and considered her a friend. The one who landed here is different yet similar, meaning I will give her the benefit of a doubt and not hold transgressions of my former friend against her." ENEMIES: @thejoker: real name unknown, the Clown Prince of Crime has long been among my deadliest adversaries. Clever, sadistic, and utterly without remorse he has killed thousands and I remember each life he has snuffed out, be they stranger or ally such as Jason Todd. If that maniac is here I can only assume he'll continue on with this "game" until one or the both of us are dead. His obsession with me, with proving we are alike is guaranteed to lead to his revealing himself sooner rather than later, likely in deadly fashion. We've been doing this dance for so long now it would be easy for it to feel routine. It has to end, but I will not give him the satisfaction of winning. Red Hood : there is something unsettling and familiar about him and not just the moniker he has chosen. A crime lord operating out of New York he is clashing with Harley Quinn, taking over territory, trying to stop crime by controlling it." Harley Quinn : Joker's sidekick. Ordinarily I'd say she's a complete joke, but the fact is the former Harleen Quinzel cannot be underestimated lest you meet your end. This one in particular is...different. Crazier. Fearless. Capable of functioning without her "puddin" she has already conquered the New York underworld. The Riddler : "Edward Nygma. A narcissist who's talents and intelligence could be of benefit to mankind if he was not busy trying to prove he is smarter than everyone else. Dangerous to the average person and those foolish enough to underestimate the strength of his neurosis, his riddles are for the most part a distraction that have and will forever prove his undoing."

Harley might be really confused because that is not the man she Kissed. Also Got Zatanna, Shes kinda doing stuff with Nightwing. OOO Gamora and Batman should meet up XD I also think Nightwing was planning to start a Justice League

"New world, same insanity. Enjoy your reign while it lasts Quinn."
I'd love to see that play out. Good chance that Batman and she will both underestimate the other as they are expecting certain behaviors based on alternate versions of each other! And I have it on good authority a certain wayward Robin shall be making an appearance in Harley's neck of the woods too, so some investigating into that could bring these old foes together again!
Always down for some Zatanna and Bats team-ups! Old friends that they are it would do him well to see another friendly, familiar face.
Gamora and the Dark Knight meeting would be interesting. Being the warrior type that she is I could see their interactions being heated and funny all at the same time.
And if Nightwing needs any assistance in putting a new League together, Batman would gladly lend some assistance assuming the former Boy Wonder needs/wants it! Of course he may choose to keep his involvement to being a part timer, allowing him to both work on discovering how they arrived here and giving Dick the room he needs to be a leader without feeling like dad is looking over his shoulder.

With slightly similar backgrounds, and preferring to handle things non-lethally, I think The Bat and Blue Dragon could do pretty well for a handful of team-ups (Once I get the character accepted, just thought I'd hit up some plotters ahead of time)
That, and seeing as Dragon has a choice to make soon about his no-kill rule and his ultimate goal and why he became the Dragon to begin with, Bats would probably be the best choice to consult, having struggled with retaining that rule for so long despite all odds. It could potentially end in Bats becoming a sort of mentor figure to Dragon from that as well. Or not, I dunno.

Huh, I'd have guessed Detroit. Either way! Cool call on the proximity, Peter and Bruce wouldn't be far from each other hero-wise, and with the ANAD Spider-Man, Peter and Bruce have much more in common these days. I'd certainly be up for some kind of team-up, and have a few ideas if you'd be game to hear them.

Once I can get Bats established in the new world to some degree that sounds like it could be fun Blue DragonWhile I am not exactly looking to have Bats take on another protege, I am definitely on board for doing the mentor thing and helping make sure that he stays on the path of not killing. Looking forward to it.

It's all good man. Dragon's been doing this long enough that I don't think he needs to be protege to anyone unless the power gap between him and everyone else was just flat out astronomical and he needed the full on training. But I do think he'd definitely benefit from a mentor or mentor figure like Bats who can help keep him on that path during what's going to be a very trying time. Just lemme know whenever you're ready

BATMANI would love to have either Quicksilver or Jean Grey meet the Dark Knight. I don’t really have any ideas for them but I think either one could be fun.

been itching for a terry bruce thread for awhile, but been trying to wrap up another thread for that to happen. Decided that I might as well move on with another angle from it based on the current pace of when/if it wraps. Anyway, i have Terry reaching out to make connections with known members of the batfam outside of people like damian and Jason, as neither exists in his continuity. He has essentially been datamining through secure govt servers to pick out what exactly is going on with the appearance of vagrants, but is stumbling on the idea that something is going on with the neo population beyond that of what the government is claiming. I'd like to have him hand off what he's found to bruce. (He'd also probably want to grill Tony on that too, but i know we are threading those two atm.) to try and see what they can come up with. Terry has also heard rumors of powerful sorcerers claiming that the worlds they came from are straight up gone, so he would also see if Bruce has any known contacts on that spectrum. How they do this, either in costume or with Terry pulling /attempting a batman on Bruce. Im up for any ideas in that regard. lemme know what you think. BATMAN

BATMANTerry is coming into this world knowing very little. However, he will start to learn that there are versions of those he knows here and he will start looking for versions of batman and the other members of the batfamily. Hoping that he can get some kind of back up or information on what exactly is going on in this world.
