Don't forget Silver St Cloud if you count Dark Detective. WW has been thru for a while but he was dating Caitlyn Fairchild at the time as well. Face it Batman makes time for the ladies too. Which is prolly why he's losing Gotham

He is dating WW now?

That is very pimp, yet, so very hypocritical at the same time. Batman does have a way of being that way...

For about 5-7 years, wasn't he near celibate? So obsessed with the job he didn't have the time for women (not to mention being so much a ass, nobody would want him).

When Dennis O’Neal was the head honcho of the bat books Batman was portrayed as a man so focused on his mission that he just wouldn’t have for an active social life hence all the individual moments where Bruce Wayne is depicted as an inept bumbling playboy. In his novelization of Knightfall Bruce and Alfred cover this very issue for those interested in collection the re-released paperback of that book.

I'm pretty sure he isn't...right now.

But there were some hints in JLU and in JLA 70 something I believe.

Also, his relationship might have bitten the dust with JLA 119.

As of JLA #90 something, Bruce and Diana explored the possibility but in the end decided to just stay friends because they didn't want to mess up their friendship. Or so people tell me; the art was so horrible for that issue that I couldn't stand to read it. It's pretty clear that they were friends -- hell, Diana was the one that took him back to the cave during the Sacrifice arc. And yeah, as of JLA #119, I'm pretty sure the relationship, friendship or not, is history, at least for now.

Guts/Batman

10-01-2005, 07:45 PM

Oops..I should have clarified.

I meant that Selina and Bruce's relationship took a major if not fatal hit in JLA 119.

Sacrifice did the same to WW/Bruce.

As seen in The OMAC Project, Sasha Bordeaux is Batman's one true love. Besides, Batman will never forgive Wonder Woman for killing Max Lord.

Batman Beyond is part of DCAU. Which is much different from DCU.

Hell, even Commie Superman showed up in that issue (which we know is an elseworld).

Oddly enough, a Nazi version of his suit fit him perfectly.

Well, isn't Sasha like an OMAC hybrid of something now...so she doesn't count.

WW and him have haad nothing for a while. Silver St. Cloud was just a one shot bring back story...so she doesn't really count. And are Selina and Bruce done or what?

I thought he wasn't seeing anyone at this time. No one serious anyway.

Mia

10-02-2005, 12:00 PM

the ladies make time for him.

he practically has to beat them off with a stick.

The animal magnatism, the looks the build, the wealth....he's a real chick magnet.

I've always maintained that Bruce is too busy whether it be as Batman or businessman to have a full fledged relationship.

However he's not so busy that he doesn't have a diary with women whom he can drop in on for a 'booty call' or a little love in the afternoon. Whether it be with some model or even the wives of other men.

Whoever it is it would be some woman whom he could easily discard. Or some woman who knew exactly what the relationship was about: A good time in the bedroom.

I've also sort of wondered if Bruce Wayne would be the type of man to 'pay' for it. While I think that it would an afront to his manhood, I also think that it would be easiest way to get achieve his objectives. Sex without all the preamble.

IIRC, Alfred said he would quit if Bruce did get in a relationship while being Batman.

Funny trivia fact:

In the Absolute Batman: Hush hardcover, Jeph Loeb stated that the 6 page interlude he and Jim Lee did for Wizard Zero was to feature a sex scene between Bruce & Selina...with the masks on!!!

Lee tucked Loeb out of it upon receiving the script, stating that "it wasn't appropriate for children to see".

Beyond is elseworld. If anything it's suggested that within 10 (comic) years after IC Batman will get married. We see his grave in Titans of Tommorow arc (Teen Titans #18) where it has his grave stone saying 'Beloved Husband'.

Question: Who do you think would be a good wife for Wayne?

Anyone welcome to answer...

Titans of Tomorrow isn't canon. Beyond is DCU canon now.

But everything that DC publishes is canon thanks to Hypertime. With the return of the Multiverse every story will be canon.

Although ToT isn't canon, some of it could still happen. i.e. It's obvious that Tim won't become Batman and kill everyone, because at the end of ToT the Titans are commited to sticking together. However, there is no reason that the Titans seeing what happened in the future should radically effect Bruces love life. Hence although that future will not happen exactly, some parts might such as Bruce getting married. What I'm curious about is who he could marry.

As for Beyond, since when was that confirmed as canon?

Morrison wrote an 80 page comic with him in it.

Plus, Terry showed up in S/B #22 along with Commie Superman. And S/B is canon (not that I like it that it is).

It makes Beyond DCU canon.

As for S/B #22, the fact that Commie Superman is there means that Beyond doesn't have to be the future of the Batman we know...

But with the Multiverse coming back, that means it is possibly another Earth's time. With the multiverse and Hypertime, every story that DCU publishes is canon.

That's all good and well, but it doesn't cement the current Batman's future - i.e. Batman of the current Earth. My entire point was that I don't think that Batman HAS to die alone because of Beyond, and given the TT:ToT arc *would* have been the future of the current Earth had the Titans not ended up there, it seems that Batman could be hooking up with someone very soon. I agree that ToT future won't happen in it's entirity, but it could (and logistically, should) happen in part - i.e. Batman could get married but not end up dead ala ToT.

Well, 1 year in the DCU is about 4 years in the real world so 10 years would equaite to 40 years. That's enough time for him to get married I think, though I'm hoping he get's married sooner - like as a result of IC perhaps...

Maybe if his Batman persona gets toned down and his Bruce Wayne persona is allowed to come back. They might have Bruce get married but if they don't tone down the Batman persona, I can't see them having him marry someone.

After Hush, then the Wargames epilogue and now the scene in JLA 118 where she comes in the cave bringing him coffee, I was hoping to see him hook up with Catwoman. But with this mindwipe business and the little rascal playing both sides (Sasha on one side, Catwoman on the other) fat chance that'll happen.
Or, cos I'm such a bastard, I'd like to see him hit on Lois like it was in the "World's Finest" cartoon. :D

Well there was an interview recently saying that Bats is going to be undicked after IC so it's a good opertunitiy. It's also a great explaination for why Batman would be undicked as well...

I agree with the Catwoman hookup. She seems the most likely, though I perfer the idea of it being WW (not that that's going to happen given Sacrafice). As for Sasha, I think that kiss was more just celebratory and part in pity because she felt so down with her looks. Lois and Bruce would be funny. Pwnage for Sups :P

Give Bruce Wayne a 3D personality. Lessen the Batman persona and everything will shake out fine.
