BATMAN BEYOND LORE
After his parents were gunned down, billionaire Bruce Wayne fought back against Gotham City's criminals as the Batman. Along the way, the Bat family grew, but after several defeats, the chaotic clown the Joker tore them apart. He injured Nightwing and kidnapped Tim Drake, the young Robin. Batgirl and Batman caught up with Joker, but he'd tortured Tim into becoming Joker Jr. Tim turned on and killed Joker in the ensuing fight, but the damage was done.
In the aftermath, Nightwing retired from crime-fighting, Tim spent years in therapy, and Batgirl joined her father in the GCPD. Bruce continued protecting Gotham, never taking another protege. But after 30 years, Bruce's body showed its age. He supplemented his strength with upgraded tech, but a heart attack forced his retirement. Bruce hung up his cowl and became a reclusive shut-in.
Without Bruce Wayne leading it, Wayne Enterprises merged with a corrupt conglomerate to become Wayne-Powers Enterprises. Crime in Gotham also bounced back and new Commissioner Barbara Gordon's in over her head. Though Joker's dead, local street gang the Jokerz carry on his chaotic work, but young hothead Terry McGinnis just interrupted one of their muggings. When the Jokerz murder his father, Terry must learn what happened to the Batman and convince that crusty old billionaire to train him as a new, totally schway Dark Knight.
Have fun!
