8 Things About Batman That DC Wants You To Forget

4) He Slept With Barbara Gordon (While She Was Dating Dick Grayson)

Now, we’re not even going to mention the controversial incident from Batman: The Killing Joke. We want to talk about the big revelation in Batman Beyond 2.0, which is a comic book series set two years after the end of the animated series.

In one of the issues, Terry McGinnis finally finds out what caused the rift in the relationship between Dick Grayson and Bruce Wayne: Bruce impregnated Barbara Gordon (obviously he doesn’t carry protection in his utility belt). Dick did the only logical thing and knocked his mentor out, and Barbara seemingly suffered a miscarriage. But seriously, what a douche move! Bruce knew that Dick and Babs were in love – and had been since they’d first met – but he still went ahead with it and bedded her.

Knowing what he does now, we wouldn’t blame Terry if he kept Dana hidden away from Bruce just in case the old man got any ideas. If anything, the Bat has proven that you can’t trust him when it comes to women.
