Batman is arguably one of the most
iconic comic book superheroes of all
time
his legacy is one of legend stretching
all the way back to the Golden Age
having left a major imprint on
pop-culture as time went on and it
doesn't seem like the Caped Crusader is
going anywhere anytime soon either over
the years as his characters stories
continue to grow fans of DC Comics got
to see more than just the regular
primetime line Bruce Wayne doing his
thing
it is a multiverse after all meaning
we've seen our fair share of Batman
alternates including ones that are
incredibly powerful even more so than
his most popular iteration so today we
are taking a look at some of this other
Dark Knight's from other timelines and
Earth's with our list of the top 10
strongest alternate versions the Batman
it's worth noting that some of these
alternates are from different earths
while others are different
transformations that Bruce has
experienced over the years in the prime
DC timeline so that of mine let's get to
it and at number 10 dark claw dark claw
is the amalgamation of Batman and
Wolverine from the Marvel Universe he
comes from the amalgam universe in which
characters from both comic Giants were
combined after a crossover story event
had the two universes meet back in the
90s der claw is logan wayne and has a
regenerative healing factor adamantium
laced skeleton structure with
retractable claws a resistance to
telepathy is a master detective and his
main focus hyena a combination of Joker
and Sabretooth
regardless Batman meets Wolverine yeah
that's a superhero I wouldn't have to
fight that's for damn sure
in at number 9 Amazo virus Batman back
in the second volume of Justice League
issue 35 we saw Lex Luthor create the
Amazo virus a synthetic plague that
suppressed metahuman abilities something
he used specifically on those who had
violent criminal records the White House
shot down Lex Luthor's proposal to use
it calling it controversial and untested
but Luthor being Luthor decided to try
to use it on Superman anyway now
fast-forward a bit
Batman gets infected by the virus
because Batman is human the reverse
happened he developed metahuman powers
although the virus would eventually
tried to shut his body down and kill him
but when Batman was infected he went
blind and developed a form of
echolocation that would let him project
sound from his mouth in order to see
like a bat so essentially slight power
upgrade although not one that Bruce
really wanted to have stick around and
it never aged the grim Knights
grim night has been called the deadliest
man alive he's the alternate version of
Batman if Joe Chill dropped the gun in
the alleyway after killing Bruce's
parents and Bruce picked it up
originating from the dark multiverse
this version of Batman works for the
Batman who laughs the amalgamation of
Bruce Wayne and the Joker more on him
later and he has no remorse or care for
any sort of ethical or moral restraint
he uses guns explosives weapons of all
sorts without any hesitation he's a
master hacker capable of gaining
complete technological control over
anything he desires and is even capable
of hacking airplanes in order to make
them fall from the sky that skill
combined with his disregard for humanity
makes him one of the most deadliest
characters to ever set foot in the prime
timeline and opposed the main continuity
version of Batman in at number 7 Batman
1 million this version of Batman exists
in the 850 third century thousands and
thousands of years into the future where
dangerous and deadly criminals have been
relocated to a prison on Pluto a
criminal names Iran rebelled having
thousands of prison guards and their
spouses executed in front of their
children causing many of those kids to
go insane or commit suicide now one of
those kids swore to never let that
happen again and decide to take up the
mantle of Batman
knowing the characters legacy and
symbolism this Batman is similar to
Bruce Wayne and abilities but he also
has some extra help from the advanced
technology of his time he can create
tech beyond anything available in the
21st century he has an advanced
intellect thanks to neocortex structures
that allow him to process vast amounts
of information beyond what Kryptonians
can and he's also telepathic plus his
bat suit has a major upgrade having ten
times the capacity of the 21st century
bat computer neat in at-6 blackest night
Batman her otherwise known as the Black
Lantern Batman back in 2009 DC released
a major crossover events called blackest
night a story event that involves a
character named Necron a personified
force of death reanimating the corpses
of dead superheroes turning them into
black Lantern's all as part of a master
plan to eliminate all life and all
emotion from the universe so I made sure
this guy up Batman was one of the Black
Lanterns something that was made
possible thanks to a whole story arc
with Darkseid that occurred beforehand
featuring Batman clones and ending with
Batman being killed by the villains
Omega beams only to have Superman
discover his dead body right after it it
turns out that that Batman had merely
been sent back in time rather than
killed though with Bruce eventually
figuring out a way to come back to the
present
in the present timeline everyone was
like yo Batman is dead you guys and he
becomes a zombie Black Lantern and
proceeds to kick the Justice League's
collective butts
long story short though it was a clone
of Batman's who became a lantern in a
seemingly very confusing story arc which
is later confirmed by Damian Wayne still
Black Lantern zombie Batman
yeah no bueno in at number 5 bat mage
hailing from Earth 33 bat mages what
Batman would have been if he was born
into a world where magic exists
essentially this is a version of Bruce
who is a sorcerer his parents were
killed by a sorcerer the name of
Cobblepot wonder who that alternate is
cursing Batman into a world of darkness
in which he was transformed into a
monstrous bat like creature but Bruce
took advantage of the poor situation
becoming a master at the dark arts
choosing to seek justice eventually he
would use his dark magic to help bring
order to the world along with his
increased in heightened senses and would
join the league of shamans the Justice
League equivalent on that earth sadly
this version of Batman was erased thanks
to the flashpoint event and no longer
exists in a number 4 Mobius chair Batman
aka the God of knowledge the Mobius
chair was created by the nyama 'putin
supervillain anti-monitor AKA mobius to
aid in his quest for knowledge the
villain who was the prime meant agnes of
crisis on Infinite Earths
and who consumed whole universes
eventually gave the chair to Metron
which was then taken by Batman during
the Darkseid war story event it
essentially turns him into a God of
knowledge now the chair allows for
various different kinds of power which
resembles some of the functions of
mother box it allows for interstellar
teleportation and travel life-support
which allows its user to survive even
the harshest environments like outer
space its omniscient it can create
Holograms and force fields and it has a
tractor beam that's powerful enough to
pull a planet out of orbit so what does
Bruce do with it well he gets revenge on
Joe Chill a story that has been played
out before and was criticized this time
around you - Batman using a cosmic level
chair plot device tone cover it's rather
than you know earning that knowledge
like in the many iterations the story
has been played out in the past just
saying and at number three white Lantern
Batman this is another version of Batman
that ties into the blackest night
crossover event at this number so at the
end of the crossover we saw the white
lantern entity pop up bringing dead
heroes back to life dead man a character
who is a disembodied spirit and can't
possess others was given the
responsibility of finding a champion for
earth to wear the white Lantern ring and
who does he choose well Batman of course
while bats would avenge
give up the ring when it was in his
possession he was capable of many
awesome abilities the ring is a life
energy conduits drawing on and connected
to the powers of life and creation so
Bruce could tap into the emotional
spectrum and dominated using the powers
of each Lantern color create force
fields and energy blasts create energy
constructs allow him to face through
solid objects become invisible absorb
energy fly create wormholes heal and
resurrect the dead and it would also
allow its wearer to see the footprints
of life which are the essence or souls
of those who have died recently that's
you shabby and at number two Red Death
during the dark nights metal story
events we got to see a plethora of
Batman alternates come out of the dark
multiverse working with the evil deity
of Barbados whose goal it was to plunge
the central DC multiverse into outer
darkness from Earth negative 52 and the
Dark multiverse this Batman is a
combination of Bruce Wayne and the flash
after the deaths of multiple Robins this
Bruce began to use more extreme methods
of fighting crime and eventually after
knocking the flash out and changing him
to the hood of the Batmobile which have
been modified to act as a cosmic
treadmill of sorts he drives into the
Speed Force which fuses him in Barry
Allen together with earth negative 52 on
the brink of destruction he murders his
rogue gallery and joins up with
barbato's using his abilities as Batman
in the flash to screw with the regular
multiverse one of his abilities allows
him to accelerate aging and others to
the point of damage he attempted to use
on the prime timeline Barry Allen's
loved ones but the Scarlet speedster man
just put an end to it and finally in
number one the Batman who laughs the
Batman who laughs is the result of an
alternate version of Batman killing the
Joker the Joker's body would release
Joker toxin which Batman then inhaled
turning him into a joke Erised version
of Bruce Wayne he jerks the bat family
murders that goes on to kill all of the
Justice League he also uses his Robins
as a pack of wild dogs of sorts keeping
them on chained leashes he's all of the
talents intellect strategy ingenious of
Bruce Wayne combined with the utter
chaos and desire for catastrophe of the
Joker hailing from Earth negative 22
from the dark multiverse he's the leader
of the Dark Knight's aka the evil Batman
amalgamations from other negative
Earth's and can do everything Batman and
the Joker can do class has cosmic
awareness toxic immunity pain resistance
you can cheat death carries around dark
metal cards that allow them to
manipulate reality and also possesses a
modified strain of black Kryptonian it's
perhaps the deadliest combination we've
seen in DC Comics yet all right there we
have
friends what are their alternate
versions of Batman do you think are
incredibly strong give us a shout in
those comments below and perhaps we'll
do a part two of this video there's
