While Michael Keaton's Batman seems to have won a well-deserved victory in The Flash, his story is far darker than it seems.
Michael Keaton’s Batman returns to the big screen in The Flash, but his backstory includes a hidden detail that makes his brief comeback heartbreaking. 1989’s Batman was one of the first major successes in the superhero film genre, with a gargantuan marketing campaign and a significant cultural impact allowing the genre to become the pop culture juggernaut that it is today.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Upon meeting Michael Keaton’s Bruce Wayne , the retired hero reveals that Gotham, once a hellish, crime-ridden, city, is now one of the safest municipalities in the world. This suggests that, after all the trauma and heartbreak, Bruce Wayne finally got to retire in peace with the knowledge that he completed his mission as Batman. Muschietti revealed in a recent interview, however, that this is tragically not the case.
Keaton's Batman Backstory Makes His Story In The Flash More Tragic In a recent featurette for The Flash, Andy Muschietti reveals that Gotham’s turnaround is not the only reason for Batman’s retirement. Bruce Wayne accidentally put another child through the same trauma he had gone through by killing their parent in front of them.
Under normal circumstances, Bruce Wayne would waste no time coming out of retirement to defeat Zod by any means necessary. By replicating his same trauma for another, however, Wayne became reluctant enough to require coaxing from the older Barry Allen to finally come out of retirement. Unfortunately, this was short-lived, as the post-Flashpoint Earth was doomed to be subjugated by General Zod, with Batman’s death being an inevitability, despite the best efforts of the two Barry Allen iterations.
The Flash's Ending Changes Make Keaton's Batman Story Way Worse Muschietti’s detail in The Flash is heartbreaking, considering that, in Bruce’s mind, he became the very sort of monster that led him to become Batman in the first place and that he comes out of retirement only to die as an inevitable outcome.
