Thomas Wayne as Batman is one of the more beloved elements of the Flashpoint storyline, which kicked off the New 52 reboot of DC Comics, as well as the animated adaptation, Justice League: The Flashpoint Paradox, which launched the DCAMU movies. The character was originally expected to appear in the DCEU with The Flash movie, but was instead replaced by Michael Keaton as Batman, along with the inclusion of Supergirl. The character started to decline with his inclusion in Tom King's Batman run. King focused on the relationship between Bruce Wayne and Catwoman and made a controversial ranking of the best Bat-Family fighters, including Nightwing, Red Hood, Cassandra Cain, and many others. Tom King is set to contribute to the creative process in James Gunn's DCU with the new Green Lantern show. The DCU is set to kick off with SUPERMAN. Thomas Wayne's interactions with Bat-Family characters like Batgirl, Tim Drake, and Damian Wayne (Robin) show how much the character descended into madness, being an accomplice in the death of Alfred Pennyworth.
