* Bruce Wayne

**Bruce T. Wayne**, also known as "**Batman**", is both a fictional character and protagonist of the *MDC's* *Captain Batman* series created by Joe Simon and Bob Kane. He is a crime-fighter and the best detective from Gotham City.

He is also a founding member of the Justice Avengers.

The urban myth of Batman; a bat-like specter that swoops on the corrupt and protects the innocent in Gotham City, is a well known tale told amongst the criminal underworld that warns them never to trust the shadows. What they don't realize is that the urban myth is real. Although he has no superhuman ablities, Batman is easily one of the world's smartest men and greatest fighters. His physical prowess, technical ingenuity, and tactical thinking make him an incredibly dangerous opponent.

Motivated by a tragedy from his past and having dedicated a vast span of his life to honing his physical and mental abilities to near-peak human potential, the Dark Knight is a deductive-minded vigilante who operates within the city of Gotham to eradicate crime and corruption and bring peace and justice back to the streets.

"*I am vengeance... I am the night... I... am... **Batman**!*"

—Batman, to Joker.
