RELATED: Flashpoint Batman Revealed His Weirdest Hatred - But It Isn't Joker Knowing the world should have reset and that he should no longer be alive, Thomas suits up again to find answers as to why his self-sacrifice seemingly failed, with the search leading him towards the mysterious Clockwork Killer. Flashpoint Beyond picks up Thomas's story after the Flash succeeds in going back in time.

While The Flash's actions rippled through time to create a devastating world war between Themiscyra and Atlantis that killed millions and threatened to destroy whole continents, Thomas Wayne's Batman was motivated by the promise of changing reality such that he could trade places with his dead son. In this reality, Bruce Wayne was murdered in that fateful alley instead of his parents, turning his mother into The Joker and his father into a brutally vengeful version of the caped crusader. And as dark as it can get in this upside down world of Flashpoint, it’s fun.'įlashpoint introduced an apocalyptic alternate reality created by Barry Allen going back in time to save his mother Nora and teamed the Flash with a very different Batman to fix the timeline. 'And even though this is an event, it’s focused on character over concept – it’s the story of Thomas Wayne Batman, a Barry Allen that could’ve been, the crimes of Bruce Wayne – it’s a murder mystery, a secret mission and a look into the past, present and future of the continuum of DC.

'This is for fans of big DC events and the great history of DC when it comes to comic books,' Johns said.
