The DCU Batman

Every single character in the lore of my perfect Batman, the cast is organized in the order of the timeline, that is why characters such as Bane and Damian Wayne are at the bottom compared to a character like Professor Pyg or the McKillens, Damian is year 15, Bane is year 11, Professor Pyg was year 1, and Bruce has known the McKillens since childhood.
