When Bruce dies who will he leave that vast fortune to?
Which if any of the dark knight's teammates will inherit the Wayne family fortune?

If you think its someone else please explain.

P.S. Sorry if this is in the wrong forum. I saw this as more of a vs thread and took a chance with it. If its not go ahead and move it. Its cool with me.

rweet mcginnis, as batman needs his money to stay updated

In a semiserious way I think LexLuthor would end up with the money by some elaborate legal manuvering.

Yep, I wouldn't be afraid to bet you're probably right....

Leave it up to Lex to do something like that...

probly still gona be enuff for dick/tim/damien to split it all.

Dick

According to an episode of JLU, Terry is actually Bruce's son. And apparently it was verified by genetic testing. So......, doesn't that mean Terry has dibs, baring a will?

Although it's pretty likely Lex will try to grab a hefty chunk for himself.

Well, for this thread I jus wanted to know who Bruce would most likely leave it all to.

Terry

I doubt he'd leave it to only one person.

Well I think he would trust Dick to pick up where he left off. Keeping Tim as Robin and all.

Dick has his own fortion already...not on Bruce's level,but enough o keep himself afloat for the rest of his life,Tim has nothing so i'd say he'd get it.

Yeah, but who's that kid who already picked up where he left off, and who happens to be his biological child?

Terry...something?

hulk would beat all them up and take it by force.

So... xmeat... do you actually look around this forum for abuse? It seems like you want us to make fun of you...

I'm not entirerly sure terry's canon....but Regardless Tim has been with Batman longer and also legally his son,Batman has had far moe involvement in Tim's life then he ever did Terry's.

Blood is thicker than water,but emotions are beyond our ken.

Terry is kind of-sort of cannon...He did appear in comics but writers wrote his name wrong. And Terry has been with Bruce for like twenty years at the end of "Epilogue", so they do have an emotional relationship just like Tim and Bruce.

20 years....But that would still leave Tim with like 60-years....not to mention Bruce would feel guilty about the joker crap,I say he leaves Terry the estate,Tim the money,Dick the cars and like always overlooks the pro that is Jason.

Well, it depends on what continuity we're talking about, really...But I'd tend to agree with your assessment.

Still say he'd give it to Dick. He more or less raised Dick and he'd know Dick would honor his wishes probably better than anyone.
The reason he and Dick fight so much is because they are so alike. I think Bruce has more of a father feeling towards Dick then all the others combined. Well, maybe not combined but definitely overall. Just look at the things he's done when it came down to it for real with Dick.

He started to consider joining Superman (Earth 2) only asking if Dick's life was better there.
He almost shot someone in cold blood to defend Dick.
He fights with Dick so much because he is just like him.

If he gave it all to Dick, he would do almost exactly what Bruce would with it. Taking care of Tim and anyone else that needed it. (Terry)

As for Terry being his son. Technically that is right but genetically only. Terry was raised by another man and never even knew Bruce at all until he was like what 20? Hell Bruce never even met Terry's mom till after that, let along sleep with her. Terry may biologically be his son but Dick is in every other since.

This is why you shouldn't have had terry...he screws it all up continuity wise....because if we're talking The animated Series then Bruce and Dick have split....and jason never existed.

If we can discount Terry i say Dick gets the Estate(as Batman would only trust him to protect gotham) Tim gets the money(The child needs something that'll get him booty) and Jason wouldn't get anything except an antique book from Bruce.

Well, the thread got moved!
Oh well, I tried.

Agreed, Jason gets bubkiss!

Anyone else noticed that xmeat's english has been getting worse and worse for an example see below

Christ...if he's going to speak in ye olde english he could atleast do it right...

I think he would/should leave Wayne Enterprises to Barbara... better then having Damien inherit it, anyways, and at least he's be leaving it to the smartest one in the bunch.

Good call...having it distributed all out evenely would be a much better tactic than just giving it to the one person.

Normal DC continuity? Terry isn't even there, is he?

Anyway, Dick would obviously get the money. Come on, the FIRST Robin. They are pretty much literally father and son (not on biological sense of course). Jason kinda was too, but he was way too rebellious and now he is kinda evil too, he would not get a dime. I guess Tim would get money too, but he has always been more independent from Bats and did not really have the father/son relationship, more like associates. Damien is ACTUAL son of Batman...but if he continues on the Assassins route, he probably would not get a dime either.

If Batman for some reason would die before Alfred, Alfred would get lot of money too.

If it had to go to one person it would go to Dick. I'm surprised theres actually any votes for anyone else! Bruce has legally adopted him and he is his eldest 'son', so it makes sense. In the first Nightwing annual I'm sure Bruce says something about Dick being the one to inherit the business if he died, I'll check it later.

Well, Bruce treats Dick like an equal these days.
The rest are still under his wing.

All the knowledge and equipment plus the inheritance would go to Dick Grayson. However, the speculation of Batman's offspring getting the money is also very possible. Damien is nothing but a bastard child. So he gets nothing. Selina's child could also get the money. But DC is blowing that away by making someone else the father.

Terry...something? Batman of the Future/ Batman beyond is AU... and as Damien isn't (presumabely) legally recpgnised as Brucie's son, the fortune would surely sp,lit between his adopted sons, Masters Richard and Timothy...

He is part of the DCAU: as are the Batman Beyond and Batman Adventures comics... The DCAU is not part of true DC Earth 1 continuity: just becase Harvey Dent was scarred by an explosion in BTAS, doesn't mean he was in main continuity. Just because the Cluemaster was an obese THING in The Batman, doesn't mean he is in the comics. Rant over. 'Nuff said.

That made me think... and I do wonder about whether he might leave something towards Stephanie Brown's child. At the end of War Games, he did promise her he'd make sure the kid never wanted for anything...

Wayne Manor and all bat-tech goes to Terry (assuming he exists in the same universe)

All other tech, and some meaningful trinket goes to Dick

The fortune is split between Tim, Alfred (and, if I had my way, Joker)

Wayne Enterprises goes to Barbara

Jason and Damien get recognition.... and nothing else.

Nightwing and Alfred gets the Money. Alfred is like Bat's dad and Nightwing is like Bat's son. Nuff said.

Alfred is up there with MrImmortal and Aunt May nothing short of TOAA or the Presence will even slow them down.

Terry's appeared in Superman/Batman. So I repeat, he is kind of/sort of cannon....Go rant somewhere else.

Tim is also very much like Bruce's son. And Nightwing's already semi-rich and gaining.

Wasn't Tim already rich before he met Bruce? I thought his dad was a company owner or something. He wouldn't need the money.

This one is news to me.

As for whoever said Alfred would get the money. I made this thread with the assumption that he wouldn't be around by this time.
However, if Alfred was still around then yea, he gets everything without a doubt. Still think Dick would essentially become the Batman. I still think he would use the Nightwing name but, he would probably move into the Manor/Batcave and take on Tim as the continued Robin. Oh, he might fight it at first but either way it would happen eventually. Alfred would do what he could to aid Dick just as he had Bruce while Dick progressed even farther into becoming Bruce semi against his will. Tim may be doing allot of his own thing by now thou but, if Dick ever needed him he'd be there.

That is how I see it going down. If Alfred was still alive that is.

i voted for terry but it looks like tim is the one he would willingly leave it to seeing as how he legally adopted him. and dick might just get a company or two, but in all lilkeyhood Talia would pull an Anna Nicole(RIP) and make sure that damien has a stake in it as well, as he is blood

Never underestimate the potential of Bruce's contingency plans!

He'd most likely split it up and give most of it to Dick, unless by some chance Alfred was still alive, then he'd get a large portion as well naturally.

In the Nightwing annual Bruce says Dick would be the one to inherit Wayne Corp, and he has refered to Dick as his "heir", he is also he oldest son (since he was legally adopted by Bruce) and Brother Eye even said Nightwing was his "favourite". If it had to go to one person it would be Dick Grayson.

Is there Terry on NORMAL DC Universe? I don't think so, and even if there is, I don't think they have same relations as in Batman Beyond...and no way would Batman give him the money over Dick.
