Hi,

I've been reading Paul Pope's fantastic Year 100 and was wondering how many versions have there been of Bruce Wayne/whoever as Batman in the future?

Apart from Pope I can think of

Miller's Dark Knight Returns
Batman One Million (http://comicbookdb.com/character_chron.php?ID=8728)
Damian from #666 (year 2022)
The Satanic Third Batman (see above)
Tallant Wayne from Brotherhood of the Bat (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ibn_al_Xu%27ffasch) (year 2048)
Terry McGinnis as Batman II of 2039 in Batman Beyond & Superman Adventures #64
Brane (who I discovered on this here forum!)
The Bruce from I, Joker
James Gordon from Digital Justice (year unknown)
Tim Drake in Titans Tomorrow (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Titans_Tomorrow) (year 2015) + JLA #8-9; and Superman/Batman #22-3, as well as Sins of Youth: Robin & Batboy
Sergeant Mack in LOTDK #101 - a robot cop in the year 2098, inspired by old Batman legends
Batman in Watchtower, a LOTDK trilogy (2020-30/year unclear, issues 55-7)

Thanks to foxley & chairthrowerlad below:

Brane Taylor (another Silver Age future Batman like Brane)
Dick Grayson as Batman II in the 'possible future' stories written by Alfred
Future Batman in Hex
2019 Batman in Generations
Batman #300 depicted a Bruce Wayne Batman in the future (no date given)
2001 Batman in Batman Annual #15, Detective Comics Annual #4 + SUPERMAN ANNUAL Vol. 2 #3 (all part of the Armageddon 2001 event).
The various Batman annuals in the Legends of Dead Earth event
Batman the 20th in Robin 3000 (http://en.dcdatabaseproject.com/Robin_3000_Vol_1_1)


Where there any other future Batmen in LOTDK or any other titles??

Aside from Brane, there was also Brane Taylor (another Silver Age future Batman).

Dick Grayson as Batman II and Bruce Wayne, Jr as Robin II in the 'possible future' stories written by Alfred.

There was a future Batman in Hex (Jonah Hex in a post apocolyptic future).

Generations

Batman #300 depicted a Bruce Wayne Batman in the future.

Batman Annual #15 and Detective Comics Annual #4 (part of the Armageddon 2001 event).

The various Batman annuals in the Legends of Dead Earth event.

Another Armageddon Event story that features a Batman in the future. (http://www.dcuguide.com/Sm/Sm2A_003.php)

Also, there was a Robin Elseworld story called Robin 3000 but I can't remember if Batman is around much. His influence is felt though.

Thanks guys, much appreciated.

Yeah, it's a grey area, like the future Batwoman/Brenda Wayne in Dark Knight Dynasty

Wikipedia seems to imply also there was more than one tale of Future Batmen during the Legends run. Anyone have any info??

just found one:

the Watchtower trilogy, part of LOTDK, set in the future & the first Batman comic I ever bought..!
