Yeah, he really goes after Bruce, and he kind of brings this very Joker-esque dogma that he and Bruce are long-lost best friends and that one can't survive without the other, which is obviously very reminiscent of the Joker's relationship with Batman, and of course Bruce hates Jeremiah more than anything and Jeremiah thinks they're[...]

Jim has a strong sense of right and wrong, which is quickly (and often) brushed aside. Detective Harvey Bullock (Donal Logue): Jim's partner, all around crooked cop with a heart of gold. Bruce Wayne (David Mazouz): He's the Batman, yo Well, he will be He's only 13 here, and he gets a little weird after witnessing the[...]

Titans showrunner/executive producer Greg Walker offered some info on how *that* final scene came about and what "take" on (SPOILERS) fans can expect.

Most of us are just like him: we grew up playing Batman – he just did it on television Mazouz spent the entirety of his teenage years[...]

Normally, Batman dedicates his crimefighting efforts to beating the crap out of the mentally ill while dressed up in a bat costume But in this week's Batman #61, Batman focuses his efforts in another direction: interrogating a child But not just any child Batman interrogates a young Bruce Wayne about the murder of his parents.
