#Batman What if when Bruce Wayne was a kid, instead of his parents being shot in Crime Alley by Joe Chill, they encountered a homeless man?

The man asked for money and Thomas Wayne generously opened his wallet. Then more homeless showed up. Thomas quickly ran out of cash...
...and the family was surrounded.

One of the homeless men grabbed Martha, she pulled away but he pearl necklace was broken. Thomas knocks him out. The homeless mob gets violent.

Thomas scoops up his son and him and Martha run fast to where Alfred and the limo are parked...
...Martha and Bruce get in and lock the doors. They watch in horror as Thomas and Alfred [former SAS in this universe] fight off the homeless who caught up to them. One manages to stab Thomas with a broken bottle.

Quickly enough the homeless are defeated and Afred drives to...
...the Hospital.

Thomas's stab wound was serious but not fatal.

As his father was in surgery and his mother answering the police's questions Bruce asked Alfred why the homeless attacked them when his dad was trying to help.

With a Michael Caine like speech, Alfred tells...
...Bruce that the men who attacked them weren't necessarily evil, but driven by fear, desperation, anger, resentment ect.

Bruce was traumatized for life, though not nearly as badly as in every other universe where his parents died. He wanted to make the world a better place...
...for everyone. He didn't travel the world to study to be the world's best detective, he studied business and law, but also Brazilian jujitsu as a hobby. He didn't become. Batman. He went to Harvard.

And now he's come back home not as the Dark Knight but to help his aging...
...father run Wayne enterprises. Bruce Wayne is not a reckless wasteful playboy whom Batman pretends to be, but a serious and respected man.

And he's going to use his money and power to clean up Gotham. But how? The government is so corrupt. The police are all crooks. And...
...there's this comedian on TV named Jack "The Joker" White whose infectious nihlism seems to be making things worse.

Basically the whole premise is Batman but without Batman where the rolls are the same but Realistic. No masks and shit.
