When Bruce Wayne was 6 years old he was witness to his parents brutal murder.
Viewing that murder has shaped his life into what it is today. He has taken
a vow that he will not let innocent people die for no reason.
Bruce
was born to Thomas and Martha Wayne. For the first 6 years of his life
he was the object of their affection. He never left their sight.
Thomas Wayne was a billionaire. He always had jealous enemies but never
thought anything serious would happen.
Bruce was only 6 years old when his parents died. They were killed right
in front of him. After watching his parent’s death he realized that they
had done nothing wrong and yet an enemy had still taken his parents
from him because they were jealous. He didn’t think it was fair what they
had done and promised himself that innocent people would not die because
of a bad society.
After Bruce finished school at the age of 12 he progressed more. Bruce
traveled the world for twelve years, visiting the best universities and
auditing courses related to crime-fighting. Eventually he became exceptional
in science, technology, boxing, disguises, criminology and detective skills.
At one point he worked for the FBI. During the day he is himself, Bruce
Wayne, and during the night he is Batman. Nobody knows his true identity
except for Alfred.
Batman never
uses a gun, and never kills. Yes, there have been exceptions to this, but
whether they are part of continuity is questionable. He feels that all
life is precious, and thus he preserves lives, and brings criminals to
justice. In order to do this, he has to instill fear in his opponents.
This is why he uses the identity of a bat, people are afraid of bats. Batman
does not appear during the day, he appears only at night. His combination
of the various martial arts allows him to defeat his enemies without killing
them. Just bringing them to justice.
Bruce hasn’t really had a triumphant return. He has had many different
adventures in his life. He has even gained partners, such as Robin, or
Batgirl. During one of his adventures he has gotten hurt but he is always
ok. He returns home to his butler and life long friend Alfred.
Bruce Wayne as Batman has received awards for saving people’s lives and
for saving Gotham City from Mr. Freeze or Poison Ivy. The congressman are
very appreciative that he fights for the city but at the same time they
are very cautious of him.
When Batman was younger he was very courageous. He was created in May of
1939, which makes him 60 years old this May. Even though he is 60 years
old he doesn’t live like he is. He is still Batman and he can still beat
his rivals in any event. He still fights crime and brings justice to the
court. Of course he will always have back up like Robin or Batgirl.
