Batman in the Flashpoint world has no no-kill policy and doesn't mind using firearms.
Two days ago, when he was tracking Joker, he used a shotgun to blow open Killer Croc's head in the sewer of Gotham.
Earlier, in order to vent the anger of losing his son and to eliminate the nightmare in his heart.
He even beat the police to find the murderer who shot at Crime Alley, and then killed him.
In this collapsed world, all superheroes have become completely different.
They will behave completely differently than usual.
Even Batman is no exception.
"Dr. Wayne, please believe me."
Barry covered his broken finger, trying to sound sincere, and explained, "Like you, I have another identity that cannot be disclosed. I am also a superhero. My name is Flash. I used to be Central City's... celebrity."
"Until one day, a bolt of lightning struck me and turned me into the fastest man in the world..."
Bang!
Batman swung his left hook and hit Barry hard on the cheek.
The corner of the opponent's mouth was split open and a stream of blood flowed out.
"The fastest man in the world - can't even dodge my punch?"
Thomas-Wayne obviously didn't believe what Barry said from the bottom of his heart. He felt that this guy might be a severe delusional patient.
Insane lunatics, perverts full of abnormal thoughts, highly intelligent people with antisocial personality... these are the specialties of Gotham.
Arkham Asylum and Blackgate Penitentiary are their gilded holy places.
Having never been to these two places, Gotham is not worthy of being called a villain. At best, he can only be regarded as a minion.
Central City?
There are indeed masked heroes in that city who punish evil and promote good, and fight against criminals.
But his name is Citizen Cold.
Flash?
Thomas-Wayne has never heard of this name.
"... That's because I lost Speed Force - a super power that can ignore the laws of physics and allow me to enter the realm of bullet time."
Barry gasped violently. He never thought that one day he would be pushed to the ground by his best friend's father and beaten crazily.
Compared to Batman of Main Universe, Thomas-Wayne is more violent and ruthless in his attacks.
If it were Bruce, he would at least listen to the explanation before taking action.
Can be replaced by this middle-aged version of Batman, Barry doesn't even have a chance to speak.
"I must have run too fast and came to another world, another parallel universe, so all this happened."
Barry was lying on the ground, his vision became blurred.
"No, you just need therapy."
Batman said coldly.
He was even more certain that the guy who broke into Batcave was actually a mentally disturbed lunatic.
"Arkham Asylum is where you should be."
Thomas-Wayne grabbed the fallen Barry with both hands, easily lifted him up, and pressed his thumbs hard on the opponent's temples.
Waves of pain suddenly awakened the memory fragments deep in Barry's brain.
His body began to twitch, and various images flashed before his eyes.
Some have happened before, and some will happen soon.
The direction of this world is clearly presented in front of Barry.
"Atlantis...Paradise Island... and war."
He saw Aquaman Arthur-Curry set off a tsunami that flooded half of Europe.
We also saw Wonder Woman leading Amazonians to blitz London and capture Buckingham Palace.
"This is not... the earth of the parallel universe, this is the real... world."
Barry seemed to understand. While foreseeing the future scene, the original memories deep in his mind were also being overwritten. Maybe it wouldn't be long before he would completely forget everything about Main Universe.
"Did I cause all this!?"
"You want to leave Paradise Island alone?"
On the beach, Diana, with his bare feet stepping on the waves and mud, looked at the man in front of him with resentful eyes.
"And leave me here? You promised to take me to the circus and taste ice cream?"
Diana, who maintains the mindset of Amazon Warriors, feels this is a betrayal.
Abandoning your companions and leaving alone is a shameful act!
"I'll be back, this is just... a short outing."
Luke shrugged helplessly. Whenever a man faces an angry woman, he is always at a disadvantage.
Even Superman is no exception.
Because at this time, reasoning often doesn't have much effect.
Diana put his hands on his hips and said dissatisfiedly, "My mother is right, men in the outside world don't have a sincere truth in their mouths."
In the angry stage, Amazon Princess turned on the map cannon.
Paradise Island There is indeed discrimination against secular men.
"I have my own tasks to complete, as I told you before, Diana."
Luke slowed down his tone and spoke softly, as if coaxing a child.
"Paradise Island is at an important moment in forming an alliance with Atlantis. Queen Hippolyta will not let you go, at least for now."
Diana lowered his head and remained silent.
She is not unreasonable, so she naturally understands that Luke is right.
He was named Amazon Princess, Paradise Island formed an alliance with Atlantis, and then appeared in public and entered the human world's sight.
On such a crucial occasion, she must be present.
"But I'll be back soon, and I can bring you a gift then."
Luke said with a smile.
Although Wonder Woman's favorability score has not been fully increased, it can be considered that Flash should have discovered the anomalies in this world.
In order to prevent accidents from happening, and to ensure that there is no problem with the only channel returning to Main Universe.
Luke decided to find Barry-Allen first and be the first to send out the invitation to form a team.
In case it is due to the butterfly effect or other problems.
As a result, Flash was killed, and he would be trapped in this time and space forever.
"Gift?"
Diana looked puzzled.
"That's a... tradition in the human world, a way of expressing friendship."
Luke explained.
It seems that Paradise Island doesn't have the habit of celebrating birthdays.
"Well, I want what you said, that sweet, cold, melt-in-your-mouth ice cream."
Diana said excitedly.
No matter Main Universe, or in the Flashpoint world, Wonder Woman is an out-and-out sweet tooth.
This point has not changed.
"I remember."
Luke nodded and glanced at Diana's perfect curves.
I just don't know if Amazonians will worry about gaining weight if he eats sweets?
After all, there is Fat Otaku Thor of Asgard, and that image is in front of him.
It's hard for him to say that Wonder Woman will definitely not be affected.
"Then I'll wait for your ice cream."
Diana, which has never been released before Paradise Island, is indeed easy to satisfy.
"However, maybe before you come back, I will go to the human world with Amazon's mission."
Luke just smiled when he heard this.
His intuition told him that even with his own influence, there would still be a war between Paradise Island and Atlantis.
In this collapsed world, everyone will be affected to one degree or another.
This is just like those Batmans of Dark Multiverse, who will embark on the path of villains due to various life tragedies or accidents.
The will of the world and the nature of existence determine all this.
The same goes for Flashpoint World.
"I wonder if there is a chance to meet my eldest cousin."
Luke raised his head and looked at the sea and sky in the distance. He had automatically assumed the role of Krypton's eldest cousin.
