Origin When leaving from a movie theater and back to home, Thomas and Martha Wayne are accompanied by their 8-year-old son, Bruce. However, unknown to them they would see their only son for one short last moment. Stepping into Park row (now called Crime Alley) out of the shadows is a masked gunman who killed both, Thomas and Martha. While their 8-year-old son watched their brutal death take place, Bruce's life would never be the same. At that moment, Bruce made a solemn oath to be an avenger of the knight and fight crime. That moment, Bruce Wayne died and Batman was born! Batman is the World's Greatest Detective and can handle any problem. He's one of the greatest heroes the world will ever know. Batman!
