Batman/ Bruce Wayne, Ultimate DC Universe.

The son of Sir Thomas Wayne, the son of a minor Scottish-English Lord, and major businessman and CEO of Wayne Global Industries [W.G.I] , and Martha Arkham Wayne, a Doctor at Gotham ER, and daughter of infamous Psychologist Amadeus Arkham. After his mother was killed by a mugger during a family outing when he was 10, Bruce became estranged from his father, who, out of grief, focused solely on running W.G.I and thus neglected his son, who was from then on primarily raised by the family butler, East- London born Jarvis Pennyworth, and his mothers protege, ER Intern and later doctor Leslie Thompkins. At the age of 18, after Bruce graduated from high school, Thomas died in a car accident. Jarvis later also died as a result of a heart attack, but before dying, he convinced his estranged son, 28 year old former Royal Marine Alfred "Al" Pennyworth, to work as Bruce's head of security. Upon investigating his father and Jarvis deaths, which he thought were suspicious, with the help of disgraced Gotham City Bulletin reporter James Ryder,Bruce uncovered evidence that his fathers best friend, Joe Fox, now CEO of W.G.I, was involved somehow. However, before he could take this evidence to the GCPF [Gotham City Police Force] a mysterious assassin known as Deathstroke killed Ryder, and framed Wayne for the crime. Forced to flee Gotham along with Al, who, due to his oath to his dying father, refused to leave his side, and Leslie, who was also targeted by Deathstroke as she knew too much, Wayne swore to avenge his father, Jim and Jarvis's death, and decided to train himself to become a hero. After 10 years abroad, training himself in Martial Arts [with the help of Al and Al's ex-wife, Tatsu Yamashiro, a Chinese-Japanese martial arts expert and sword-master] investigation [which he learnt initially from Ryder and later reclusive British Consulting Detective Sherlock Holmes, whose best friend John Watson was a former war-comrade of Al's] and Combat Driving [a skill he learnt from legendary driver and criminal Dominic Torretto], along with various other skills, he returned to Gotham, under the alias John Blake, and began a war on crime, under the identity the Batman.
