Fan Casting Batman II in Earth-2

Unlike his Prime Earth counterpart, Thomas Wayne survived the mugging by Joe Chill. In the 1990s, Thomas returned, and systematically killed Chill, the three thugs in Falcone's employ, and finally Frankie Falcone himself. While investigating these crimes, Bruce, now the Batman, discovered that Thomas was alive and after a heated confrontation wherein Bruce learned the whole truth about his father's sordid past, and disowned Thomas. After the death of his son during Darkseid's invasion, Thomas took up the mantle of Batman to honor his son and attempt to atone for his own failures.
