Thomas and Martha Wayne

In the Flashpoint timeline, another ripple changed another important thing. While Metropolis was devastated by the arrival of Kal-El, in Gotham it was a young Bruce Wayne being killed instead of his parents. Which once again proved to be a fatal blow for the future formation of the Justice League.

Thus, driven out of her mind by this event, Martha Wayne cut a huge smile on her face, pretty much like we saw in The Dark Knight with the Joker. At the same time, Thomas Wayne took on the mantle of Batman – and he became the fiercest vigilante of them all, one who didn’t shy away from killing wrongdoers.

Alcoholic, depressed, and extremely aggressive, Batman meets in the end with the Joker and convinces her to kill herself – basically, this happened. And, basically, he showcased once again that the Dark Knight still holds the higher moral ground in a universe where he is a serial killer.

Are there any chances for this to happen on the small screen? No. Too much backstory for these essentially secondary characters would make the CW show anything else but a Flash one. But there is a chance to see this happening on the big screen.

Or, at least, I hope so.
