== Biography ==
=== Defending Gotham City ===
At some point, at least according to [[comic books]], [[Batman's parents|Bruce Wayne's parents]] were [[killed]]. As Batman, Wayne protected [[Gotham City]], [[Vengeance|avenged]] his parents, had a "[[Batmobile|cool car]]", and battled an "[[idiot]] in [[clown]] [[makeup]]" ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|Moving In (comic story)}}) - [[the Joker]]. ([[WC]]: {{cs|Doctor, Doctor, Doctor (webcast)}})


According to [[Maxwell Collins]], Batman was "the world's greatest [[detective]]", and despite having no powers, he could beat "anyone". The [[Twelfth Doctor]] didn't believe that "solving crimes after they happen[ed]" made him clever, let alone cleverer than [[Captain America]], and thought that Batman was a bored billionaire with "too much time on his hands". Batman wielded "a batarang" [sic], and fought what the Doctor referred to as "an idiot in clown make-up". Batman had a "cool car", protected [[Gotham City]], and avenged his deceased parents. Maxwell thought that Batman would win in a fight between Batman and Captain America, while the Doctor favoured Captain America. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Moving In (comic story)|Moving In]]'')
=== Part of the Supreme Omniversal Tribune ===
Batman was part of the [[Supreme Omniversal Tribune]], who were witness to [[Opal Luna Saturnyne|Saturnyne]]'s trial for causing the destruction of [[Earth (Crooked World)|an alternate Earth]], an event which she was innocent of. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|Judgement Day (comic story)}})


In one issue of a comic, he was faced up against [[Superman]], and, as the cover promised, "only one can survive!" ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Curiosity (short story)|Curiosity]]'')
=== Donating to Comic Relief ===
Batman was among the [[superheroes]] who [[donated]] to [[Comic Relief (in-universe)|Comic Relief]] in [[1991]], dropping off a large donation from the [[Wayne Foundation]]. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|The Totally Stonking, Surprisingly Educational And Utterly Mindboggling Comic Relief Comic (comic story)}})


He had a [[butler]] named [[Alfred Pennyworth|Alfred]]. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[A Kill to a View (audio story)|A Kill to a View]]'')
=== Travels with Gandalf and Wyldstyle ===
[[File:Gandalf, Batman, & Wyldstyle run through NYC.jpg|thumb|left|Batman [[Running|runs]] through [[New York City]] alongside [[Gandalf]] and [[Wyldstyle]]. ([[WC]]: {{cs|New Adventures Await! (webcast)}})]]
At one point, Batman [[walked]] through the [[Brick Boulevard]], shortly before the [[Twelfth Doctor]], [[Peter Venkman]], and [[Doc Brown]] crashed [[The Doctor's TARDIS|the TARDIS]], [[Ecto-1]], and the [[DeLorean]] into each other. ([[WC]]: {{cs|Doctor, Doctor, Doctor (webcast)}})


During a visit to [[Shoreditch]] in [[November]] [[1963]], [[Ace]] was wearing a Batman [[earring]] in her left ear. ([[TV]]: ''[[Remembrance of the Daleks (TV story)|Remembrance of the Daleks]]'')
After travelling through [[the Vortex]] with [[Gandalf]] and [[Wyldstyle]], the trio landed on the streets of [[New York City]], where [[Slimer (LEGO Dimensions)|Slimer]] flew past. The [[Ghostbusters]] quickly began attempting to capture the ghost, before it broke free, with [[Harry Potter (character)|Harry Potter]] having to help. The trio then ran past [[Ghostbusters H.Q.]] and into a [[portal]].


In the [[1970s]] at the [[Inferno Project]], when [[Greg Sutton]] expressed surprise at the appearance of the [[Third Doctor]]'s [[the Doctor's TARDIS|TARDIS]] console, the Doctor sarcastically asked Sutton whether he'd expected "some kind of space rocket with Batman at the controls" instead. ([[TV]]: ''[[Inferno (TV story)|Inferno]]'')
Reuniting with Gandalf and Wyldstyle, he then found himself in the [[Land of Ooo]], before [[Finn the Human|Finn]] and [[Jake the Dog|Jake]] appeared, proclaiming "It's [[battle]] time!". He then crashed into [[Cave 1 (New Adventures Await!)|a cave]] where he met [[Sloth (New Adventures Await!)|Sloth]], asking "what took [him] so long" before exiting the cave.


[[Stuart Hyde]] playfully called Dr [[Ruth Ingram]] "Batman". ([[TV]]: ''[[The Time Monster (TV story)|The Time Monster]]'')
He later charged into battle alongside others, before ending up in a mosh pit including everyone who participated in the battle. ([[WC]]: {{cs|New Adventures Await! (webcast)}})
