Flashpoint: The World of Flashpoint Featuring Batman

DC’s 2012 Flashpoint event reshaped its universe, and this one-shot zooms in on a grim, alternate Batman. Written by Peter Milligan with art by Fernando Blanco, George Pérez, and Scott Koblish, it reimagines Bruce Wayne’s father, Thomas, as a violent vigilante in a war-torn Gotham. A dark, standalone glimpse into a fractured world, it underscores how far the Flashpoint reality deviated from the DC norm.
