Bruce Wayne (Earth-8998)

"My training is nothing, my will is everything. Alfred, If I make yourself more than just a man, if I devote myself into this ideal, into this identity, I can become something else entirely. A legend."

- - Batman

Bruce Wayne was born to Thomas and Martha Wayne, thus a heir to the Wayne family and fortune. When his parents were murdered in the front of Bruce by a mugger named Joe Chill, Wayne dedicated his entire life to combat crime. Raised by his family's butler, Alfred Pennyworth, Bruce ventured the world to master his body and mind. After twelve years, Bruce returned to his hometown of Gotham City, and with the aid of Alfred, he took the identity of the masked vigilante Batman, a hero who would wage a one man war against crime. Batman would then become a founding member of the Justice League at the behest of the Chitauri invasion on Earth.
