Make Bruce Wayne poor. His Batmobile is made from salvaged parts from a junkyard and he has to MacGyver his gadgets together from junk parts. He constantly has money problems and helps out other poor people in his neighborhood.

I did really like the idea of taking away Bruce's mansion and making him live in a brownstone apartment.

War Games 2 only now it's a global scenario involving unique DC players (Intergang, League of Assassins, Checkmate, Spyral, etc) and Bruce is shown each scenario is tied to a specific Bat Family member with the goal to bring all under Batman Inc. control and if it can't happen to destroy the organization by any means necessary. When he can't remember making it he learns it was a Fail-Safe/Zur-En-Arrh creation to take care of a world without a Batman but still dealing with all of his choices/wards.

Bruce upgrades to a new version of the Batmobile, but after a few days the old model goes missing from the Batcave. A week later he's turned up nothing but news reaches him that that the old Batmobile has been seen cruising the streets of Gotham. That night he goes out searching for it and witnesses a scene where it plows through a man crossing the road. The old Batmobile would be a sort of faceless enemy similar to the fuel truck from Steven Spielberg's Duel as an almost malevolent otherworldly force in control of a vehicle. It would be an actual old version of the Batmobile (you pick your old favorite, it's that one.) The Gotham police wouldn't be willing to talk to Batman since the Batmobile has turned Batman into a maniac in the eyes of the city's populace.

I've worked on this for a long time for no reason, but never in earnest with finished drawings.
>Batman has a glorious batbeard
>It was his dad and pregnant sister who were shot (by his brother in law maybe?), his mom was dead before
>Dick is split into Richard and Grace Wayne, that he adopted after their mom killed (never had a dad so it's easier to take his name), and now they're Robin and Sparrow. Sparrow has a jaunty little Robin Hood hat and Robin has nightwing hair and then some, and a lil moustache comin in.
>Raven makes frequent appearances as basically his third kid who is too tsundere to admit that she really likes Bruce's dark vibe and isn't sure if she wants him to be her improved dad or her bf
>Bárbara Gordo is a honduran chick who had an inverse of Bruce's origin story, when she was scared and alone and had to hide in the jungle, she looked at the leaf above her and saw a bunch of cute puffy white and yellow bats (they have those down there, they're adorable) and decided to become a costumed hero to make people happy. She calls herself 'Mercy' as in murcielago.
>Joker's theming is more 'murderously corrupt medieval king' with puffy shoulders and a beard
>his Harley is a loli, and he finds her crush on him alternatingly cute and annoying like get outta here kid ya bother me. She's lanky and has real Radical Edward vibes.
>Ra's Al Ghul is so fucking keen on Batman fathering his grandchildren that he has a bat-symbol-shaped goatee
>Croc is an experiment in combining multiple genetic disorders in one being. Harlequin ichthyosis for armor, the 'double muscle' gene, double red blood cell count for holding his breath underwater, double dentition, gigantism, alopecia, albinism
>Riddler equivalent is Nick Riddler, aka Enigma
>There's also a meme-themed villain called Anonymous (nixing this, but back in the day this felt like a good idea before it had become so mainstream
>Catwoman is maybe Bruce's long-lost wife who went crackers

I'm no good at writing mysteries so instead it's about a 1910-20s Batman. Bruce serves in WW1 where he meets Alfred, an older British servicemen who he befriends/they save each others lives. Bruce confides in Alfred his goal when he gets home of making Gotham truly crime free, Alfred agrees to help him. 1920s Gotham would feature Bane, Penguin, and the Falcones as the big villains of the first arc. All of whom are smugglers. If this is like that cartoon I genuinely haven't seen it.

After seeing how effective his large Bat-Family has gotten at fighting crime overall, Bruce decides to take a step back from his role as Batman a bit and focus on the work he can do as Bruce Wayne to improve Gotham, leading him to running for mayor so he can try to create change from the top.
Basically a story to finally shut up all those whiny people who complain "Why doesn't Bruce solve Gotham's problems with his money instead of violence?" and show the kind of problems that would arise from that as well.

I've been rattling around with a story.
Recently all sorts of depraved videos have flooded Gotham. CP, Snuff, Torture etc.
A new gang is in town and they're the sickest and most depraved group of people Batman have faced. They don't have superpowers and they don't have any grand plan or corny supervillain plot. It's what makes them so scary. Kids and people all around start to go missing at unprecedented rates with seemingly no connections to this group. They're simply ghosts.
It involves a lot of my OC and kids random thoughts I have, as you can see nothing too solid yet.

Another one I have is one day all Gothams screens cut too a stranger in a mask and he gives out several names, addresses, crimes and money.
Its a random list and it starts of "innocently" enough. A majority of the names are nobodies and no-one thinks anything of it too much.
Then it escalate. CEOS, politicians, cops. Same deal. A crime they have committed and a "Bounty". People catch on to what it is and start the "Hunt" as the man in the screen calls it.
Gotham is chaos as people are being hunted in the streets.
It escalates even more. Simply crimes such as larceny are given exorbitant bounties. Many people are thinking they're righteous.
The deepest secrets of the most powerful people are exposed and they are being hunted as well, villains aren't exempt as people even attempt to break into Arkham.

Just a concept I'm working on

Bruce disappears in an explosion,batman is still running around,bat family chase him,people like penguin nygma harley and ivy are left brutalised and catatonic with fear,raz falls to dust and stays like that for a year,bane is left with no muscle tissue at all and stretched skin so on and so forth.
He gets to the joker at the same time robins do,joker gets his color back and stops laughing,green smoke starts pouring out of his pores,he starts weeping and begging as flames of skeletal Bat spectre burn him away.
As Bruce died God decided to make a tiny localised spectre and merge it with the dark knight,batman becomes undead and incorporates parts of old knight suits.
This leads to azrael becoming batman to convince presence to let bruce rest then jason takes over,bruce comes back next crisis with alfred as payment for his service
Azrael is new spectre

I take them money and tell them to make a big media hubbub about how they aren't going to publish Batman any longer. Then, after a year of no Batman, Batman gets rebooted with the Batman Returns designs and style.

I'll get somebody to compose the bones of a multi-layered heist story, with Neal Adams doing the art and putting meat on it with dialog.

There will be Penguin rocketeers.

Batman will be shirtless.

There will be Bat-Penis.

The Riddler captures a bunch of people who he has deemed as blights on society in need of cleansing, and one of them is Bruce Wayne. They have to survive a series of traps similar to those in Saw, but the twist is that Bruce can't make use of any of his usual Batman tools.

One complaint I've always had about Batman is how they kind of demonize the mentally ill.
As such, I'd do a story set in Gotham's psychiatric hospital that is NOT for the criminally insane. Make it clear that mentally ill people are more likely to be victims of crimes than perpetrators. Show that Bruce Wayne funds the place and unlike Arkham it's actually effective, with lots of people getting rehabilitated and going back into society. But some strange things have been recently going on with some patients becoming violent out of nowhere so Batman investigates. It turns out that a lot of Arkham's inmates have died in recent years due to Arkham constantly getting blown up and Joker constantly murdering his own henchmen, so Jeremiah Arkham (who was always jealous about the pyshiatric hospital's good record) is trying to make the patients in the psychiatric hospital violent (using Scarecrow's fear gas and the Mad Hatter's mind control technology that were stolen from them) so that they'll get transferred to Arkham and they'll thus get more funding.
Ultimately Batman foils this scheme, the patients who had become violent get better.

Idk what's going on in the comic so this is assuming I've got a fairly blank slate to begin with
First I'd probably focus more on scarier villains. Man-bat, Clayface, Professor Pyg, Dollmaker, etc
I'd have a running story where Damian meets a teenaged heiress at a high society ball and becomes smitten with her. He goes to Dick for advice about it.
Eventually have them date. I like the idea of an issue where Bruce ensures Damian that it's okay for him to go on a date while Batman has to fight like 4 villains alone.
Probably would do a Dickbats arc. I just think that's really fun.
Lastly I'd probably reform Riddler again. Detective Riddler is literally my favorite thing they've ever done with a Batman villain so I'd bring something like that back.

Opening of issue is Joker getting gunned down by the cops in the first scene. Then he gets back up because “you can’t kill the clown”. No one even bothers to go to Joker’s funeral because they all know he’s going to be up and about soon enough. The story is actually about murderous vigilante named the Historian pissed that Batman villains are constantly vandalizing and destroying Gotham’s uniquer architecture and historical site. He kills a couple or z-listers like The Murderous merry-go-round, the Rabid dog, Batshit Crazy, and Bruce Pain before Batman stops him. Then the Court of Owls gets him released from Arkham.

Batman fixes all of his problems and successfully rehabilitates all of his villains, with the exception of Bane, the Joker, Ra's al-Ghul, and Black Mask, who are all locked away with the help of everyone he rehabilitated. Yes, even Killer Moth.

Environmental environment do survey workmen slighter swamp and discover the mystical properties dealing with elements there.

Causing a surge in industry wanting to mine the swamp. And also pushes mass land development in the swamp and thus extending infrastructure of Gotham to that area.
So not only are legitimate businesses dying for the area, you’ve got gangsters and Gotham villains trying to lame claim to the area as well.


So now Batman has to deal with a boom in crime. Plus you’ve got environmental terrorists like Poison Ivy and even Solon Grundy killing people to keep Slaughter Swamp free.

the plot is definitely that he's been adding his own flare to bane's juice. or at least that's been done before and I mixed it up with that, because i've definitely seen it.
not that your idea can't have that too, i mean i don't think it's been done to a whole city before.

anon you can either demonize the mentally ill or you can allow them to destroy the lives and indeed the sanity of the mentally well.
no amount of good treatment is ever enough for the sensitivity types, they don't care how much sane people have to go through

Batman is watching over Metropolis as Clark wanted to take Lois somewhere nice for their anniversary.
Mxy shows up and asks Bats if he's fantasising about being married to LL. When Bruce gets overly defensive, Mxy creates a new reality where Bruce and Lois are married. Batman tries to get Mxy to stop, but keeps getting transported to new realities where he's married to Lana Lang, Lori Lemaris, Lex Luthor, Lara Lor-Van...

Here's one:
>the events from Bruce's childhood left him traumatized to the point that he's a recluse that's incredibly awkward around people that aren't his decrepit butler
>he trains autistically, becoming extremely lethal with his bare hands
>a crimelord psychiatrist named Dr. Hugo Strange, who was wronged by the Wayne family, treats Bruce, manipulating him and warping his mind, programming him to perform hits at night against criminals that stand in his way
>to unleash the demon, Strange hypnotizes Bruce into reliving the death of his parents, and he lashes out furiously, beating them into a bloody pulp, leaving behind horrific crime scenes
>kill mode also enhances his tactics, but he's hyperfocused in this state and can't see he's being manipulated
>his trigger is a bat or bat symbol, which Strange cleverly conceals on Bruce, like placing a bat symbol on a package he's sent to hand off, or something like that
>clean up crew made up of Richard, Jason, and Tim, who are orphans that work for Strange
>he does this against alternate versions of Batman's rogues, from Riddler, to Penguin, to Two-Face, each with their own modified gimmicks reminiscent of their original versions
>Selina is a call girl/thief that Bruce is in love with, who is also using him as a mark
>eventually, the big bad of Gotham, the Joker, catches a whiff of what's happening to his rivals/partners
>the Joker is a frightening sadomasochist opportunist, getting pleasure from pain and overall being unpleasant and heinous
>Joker is able to play Bruce against Strange at one point; Bruce remains in strategic kill mode for the rest of the story
>final confrontation is their showdown, after a long, calculated game of tag

I feel like this would just turn into another plot that's trying too hard to justify Batman's no kill rule instead of just respecting it as his personal choice

I had this more as a movie idea than a comic based off the fact Ultraman is in the new Superman movie
>Bruce Wayne has been active as Batman for at least five years
>On a routine patrol Batman gets alerted by news from Gordon about a series of gruesome killings
>The killer is an exact copycat of how Batman goes after criminals
>Except this copycat is murdering cops, feds, firefighters, paramedics, doctors, ect
>Batman investigates the copycat serial killer
>He's not only copying Batman's tactics but his gear as well
>Except his batarang equivalent is shaped/themed after an owl
>Batman immediately deduces that the killer is trying to get Batman's attention
>Owlman is lured into a trap to fight Batman
>Plot A follows Batman investigating Owlman and his mysterious agenda, revealing he's Lincoln March and either working for the Court of Owls or he's the man in charge
>Lincoln/Owlman is looking to avenge a centuries old blood feud between the March and Wayne families
>The major struggle is Batman going up against his polar opposite, as skilled, intelligent, strategic as him but entirely homicidal
My cast would be
>Scott Eastwood as Batman
>Christopher Eccelston as Alfred Pennyworth
>Jason Beghe as Commissioner James Gordon
>The chick from CW's Nancy Drew as Barbara Gordon (becomes Batgirl at the end, sets up her own spin-off film)
>Chris Pine as Owlman
And lastly
>The guy from Terrifier as the Joker in a post-credits cameo

Batman is a boring character. The biggest challenge is working around his boring personality.
>My idea would be that Nightwing would have opened his own company to rival Wayne and finance the Titans project that Bruce opposes.

>Bruce himself is emotionally distant and pretends to be normal

It's something I picked up from the Nolan films

>He's always seen in the shadows we never see the real Bruce

There's no such thing as ''real bruce''

>Joker

Nothing special, he's Wacky Thug. never bought that he's more complex than that. If you come up with complicated plans, he becomes the Riddler. So it's better to leave him just Wacky and thugish

>Designs

Mix between Rocksteady, Millar and a bit of Silver age.

I would have doubled down on the social problems.
