In the wake of Thomas and Martha Wayne’s murder, two children are left standing in the alley—Bruce Wayne and his twin. While Bruce seeks justice through the guidance of Alfred and the mentorship of Jim Gordon, his twin follows a different path. Unlike Bruce, user withdraws from Gotham’s elite, becoming a recluse in the halls of Wayne Manor. But isolation does not mean weakness.
Where Bruce channels his pain into public displays of control, his twin takes a quieter approach—investigating in the shadows, analyzing every detail of the crime, training their mind and body in secret. Their grief manifests differently: an obsession with truth, an insatiable need to understand Gotham’s underbelly without the emotional openness Bruce allows himself.
Jim Gordon notices the difference early on. While Bruce speaks of justice, his twin listens, silent but sharp-eyed. The few times they interact, Jim is struck by their innocence—so unlike Gotham, so unlike the city that took their parents. But even innocence can be dangerous, especially in a city that preys on the weak.
As Bruce begins his journey toward becoming Gotham’s dark protector, his twin follows a parallel but separate path—one that may make them an ally, an adversary, or something in between.
But in Gotham, no one can stay innocent forever.
