      I wish Damian was left in his own 666 universe. Extended Wayne family only works for me in containment stories like Flashpoint. The main stories need to survive without opening up huge pandoras boxes into main continuity with characters like Thomas Wayne, Thomas Wayne Jr, Kathy Kane, Bette Kane, Damian Wayne, Helena Wayne, Janan al Ghul….

    Dc legit had a chance to play with murderhobo grandpa batman landing in prime timeline. And somehow didnt take the easy gold of going with "Thomas decides he gonna kill every villain in Gothams and then spoil his grandkids". Thomas wants to stab joker and then give Damian a hug before escaping into the night. Which could have been so satisfying, like can you imagine Thomas meeting Jason! Their convos and morality! It coulda be sooo good!

    I always assumed Flashpoint Batman was nowhere close to the fighting skill levels of mainline Batman and had to rely on his smarts and weapons instead, which to me made him seem like a pretty cool underdog version of Batman. So of course King would fuck that up.

    I've said it before and I'll say it again: THEY SHOULD'VE USED MARTHA. Martha Wayne's Joker is SEVERELY underutilized, and putting her in Thomas' place during King's run would've fixed the MAJORITY of the problems involved. Unlike Thomas, her doing all of this would've ABSOLUTELY been in character for her, seeing as she broke even further upon finding out Bruce would become Batman & ALREADY killed her own Alfred to begin with! She even crippled her version of Selina for trying to "replace" Bruce, so she would have FULL reason to go after their relationship here. Not to mention: we NEVER got to see Bruce's reaction to her! All of these times Thomas is brought back, and Martha being his Joker is RARELY brought up, and NEVER around Bruce. Literally EVERYTHING was ripe for a good, gut-wrenching story with Martha being there, all unused to character assassinate Thomas. DC, WHAT ARE YOU SMOKING!?
    I will say that the times Thomas was used AFTER Kings run were all surprisingly good, with the reborn Flashpoint timeline being GREAT, but the context behind it is so TRASH.

    Finally someone said it. I've been screaming into the void about thomas wayne being ruined by DC for a lone time now. It would have so nice if we have seen him reconnect with his son in a meaningful manner, maybe become a member of the bat family but he has his own city to deal with crime or just have an entire spin of series of him bonding with Bruce and all the other bat family members. A heart to heart with alfred could be poignant since alfred pretty much raised Bruce and the rest of the bat family like Tim, Dick, Jason and Damien. It would also be better if DC didn't kill him of and maybe have him around for a long enough time until he dies of old age.
    Sadly we don't live in a perfect society.

  • @Dragon_Moth
    @Dragon_Moth 6 месяцев назад +22

    Tom King is, in many respects, very similar to Peter Milligan: They're good when writing original characters or characters with not a lot of lore or established characterisation. That's why "The Omega Men", "Strange Adventures" or "The Human Target" worked, because they're backstory-less enough for King to be able to add his own touches of PTSD and post-modern philosophy. Obviously he can write characters with pre-established backstories pretty well (Mr. Miracle, the Vision...) but even when he does that he tends to make a lot of stuff up (Such as Victor Mancha's vibranium adiction or Mr. Miracle and Barda being mentally much worse than we thought). But when writing characters like Batman or the Flash, who have very established and detailed psychological profiles and backstories, his retcons and need to add pathos everywhere becomes a hinderance becomes it comes at the cost of proper characterisation

    The only good usage of him for main Batman would be making him one of the three, in my headcanon, to retire, but by fricking some serious father-son talk, not by fricking making him evil. For example Flashpoint Thomas and Martha gets into main universe by some multiverse shenanigans, and Bruce have a true talk with them. That would be awesome in my opinion. But characters in comics can't retire of course.

    I never was a particular fan of the Flashpoint Batman cause with the fact that Barry's actions created differences both in the past and the future you could basically shape Thomas in whoever you wanted.
    Normally i would say that doesn't make any sense that Thomas is so skilled when it comes to combat skills and firearm use but, since Flashpoint changes both the past and future events of a universe, it makes sense in this case.
    As for Tom King is a terrible writer, he doesn't write scripts for the characters, he adapts the characters to his scripts.
    The only reason why people appreciate stories like Human Target or Strange Adventures is that they don't know anything about these characters, characters like Adam Strange, Mr.Terrific, Ice or even Martian Manhunter.
    That's why a lot of people don't like his Batman run or Heroes in Crisis, cause Batman and Wally West are popular and have lots and lots of fans.

    So Thomas Wayne wanted batman to stop being batman and be happy….yet he…stops the wedding between Selina and Bruce while other characters believe their marriage would lead to him stop being batman…him being left on the altar leads batman to further spiral and become worst which results to him beating Mr freeze to death.
    Then after that he allows Dick Greyson to basically die furthering making batman spiral and getting rid of his happiness
    puts him in nightmare scenarios that don’t discourage bruce from being batman by saying see how happy you’d be without batman but just does random nightmares
    then after the desert experiment doesn’t work he becomes the batman of evil gotham and decides to…kill Bruce’s father figure instead of just killing all criminals who’d make it necessary for him to be batman…
    like his goal and his actions contradict each other

    Because Tom King served in the military, I think he believes he's Batman. It's like Frank Miller asked him, "If Batman could be anyone, why does he have to be you?" Also, He's a simp. And that's how he wrote Batman.

    To be honest, I would have been interested to see what DC would have done with Flashpoint Batman if he actually come with Batman and Flash during the events of The Button. What kind of relationship would he have with Bruce and the rest of the Batfamily. He was from a different universe, but he was still Thomas Wayne. And maybe, after a little while, his wish for Bruce to stop being Batman could have actually happened, after Bruce marries Selina.
    But unfortunately, this isn't what happened. Such a shame. His whole character have been completely ruined with City of Bane.

    While it was terribly executed, I believe that they could have made putting Thomas Batman in the mainline stuff at least tolerable. Like, having him remind Bruce of his desires but Bruce wanting Thomas to have a normal life like before he was Batman refuses to do so leading Thomas to have a discussion with Alfred, his grandson, and "grandsons" about how to convince Bruce to give up the mantle where Alfred would, as only he would, say in a sarcastic style tone that he tried at first but like his father, he's as stubborn as a mountain in such matters. Thomas would end the talk looking at Damian asking if they want Bruce to ever be happy and if they'd be willing to do whatever it takes placing a look of contemplation on the four brothers which Dick, Jason, and Tim would almost immediately decide that Bruce is happiest as Batman while Damian would be 50/50 on it as he would want his entire family to be happy and somewhat normal. Meanwhile Dick, Jason, Tim, and Damian would tell Selina that Bruce deserves his share of happiness and she makes him happy while telling her that the marriage wouldn't weaken him as he'd have more of a reason to be Batman and have the wedding happen anyway, after some time, have Bruce and Selina have a little baby who they would then name Helena.

Kate has police and military training as her background, on top of her Bat escapades, and being older than Tim but still in good health means she's just naturally gonna be a better fighter. That doesn't mean Tim is weak, but Kane is just better as a fighter. Tim would wash her in chess tho

    Like I just don't get how if Manga and Anime can do this, why can't Americans comics. And NO, you don't need to go back and do all the older stories but picking one of the best runs of the characters would give you some of the best animated TV and movies out there.

  • @bandhere728
    @bandhere728 6 месяцев назад +1

    Now while I love flashpoint as a story and how it help reset the universe for what should have been the last time in Dc comic history, they did introduce new characters and give us a new spin on how a universe would look if Barry had no powers, Bruce was killed and Thomas became Batman and some other life changing events in Dc comics, this is where these ideas should have started and ended. Dc and marvel like to take one off ideas from the multiverse and then run the idea completely into to ground to extinction and then wonder why the comic book fails and then tries to reboot all over again by telling the same “stories” all over again.
    That’s the problem with the Dc multiverse and why they did crisis on infinite earths in the first place to get rid of the multiverse, and to give us one main timeline and universe, but instead we continue to get multiversal threats and new multiverse stories that just make the Dc comics universe unbearable and confusing to keep up with. The multiverse concept was originally supposed to be one off ideas to tell a different story about our original favorite superhero’s, but other than that these multiverse characters were supposed to stay in their lane and not try to replace the original superhero or be shoved into the mainline universe to interact with the main universe.

I had *hoped* Michael Keaton was playing Thomas Wayne, and would’ve sent the message with Barry for him to give to Ben’s Bruce at the end of The Flash, thereby salvaging a happy ending, of sorts. Jeffrey Dean Morgan would’ve been fantastic, he has that level of intensity too. Warner Bros. created the chaos they were trying to avoid.
