Bruce Wayne (Earth-9962)

Early life
Bruce William Wayne was born in the fifth of April to billionaire doctor Thomas Wayne and his second wife Martha. He grew up with his parents, the family butler Alfred and his older half-brother Thomas Jr. He lived a healthy yet slightly sheltered life because of his parents being overprotective of him and Thomas Jr.

His happy life ended forever however in his ninth birthday. He went with his parents to see the late night premiere for the "Grey Ghost". After the end of the show they went through the back exit to avoid the crowds, but they encountered a mugger. The mugger asked Thomas and Martha to give something valuable to him before their son gets hurt. Thomas tried to reason with him, but the mugger, believing Thomas trying to manipulate him, shot the billionaire doctor dead. As his wife Martha went up to the mugger in pure rage, the mugger shot her dead too. He then pointed the trigger at young Bruce, but as he pulled the trigger, nothing came out; his ammo was empty. He ran from the scene of the crime, leaving young Bruce traumatized as he looked on to his dead parents, in an image that will never go away from his mind for the rest of his life.

He was taken in by Jim Gordon, who was then a young detective, to the police station, to be comforted. He stayed there for a little while until he was picked up by Alfred and Thomas Jr. During his parents' funeral, he could not bear to see his parents' corpses, so he ran as far as he could until he fell into an old well filled with bats. He stayed there for two hours until his older half brother found him. For a while after, he has suffered many nightmares about bats consuming him and his family.

Bruce thought about what his father always taught him about making the city better; even before his parents' deaths, he saw many crimes with his parents in the dirtier Gotham areas, things that they did not want to see either one of their sons seeing. Eventually, at age 11, he started some martial arts training, and learned more about science, maths, and languages. At is fifteenth birthday, he decided it was time to leave Gotham for a number of years in order to continue his studies of combat, science and maths, as well as learning the mastery of stealth, hunting, and many other things. He went on a near five year journey around the world.
