Batman may get a happy ending in DC's Knightfight preview

A preview for DC K.O.: Knightfight #4 shows Bruce Wayne placed in a fabricated reality where Damian became Batman, later became a doctor, and had a son named Alfred; the issue is scheduled to release February 4.

DC Comics' ongoing DC K.O. crossover has placed Batman into a series of fabricated realities as part of the Heart of Apokolips' trials. The new preview for DC K.O.: Knightfight #4, by Joshua Williams and Dan Mora, depicts a surprisingly peaceful reality where Gotham is safe and Bruce Wayne finds himself retired and spending time with a grandson named Alfred. In that reality, Damian Wayne once took the Batman mantle, later left it to become a doctor, and raised a family. The preview raises the question of whether Bruce would choose this life over returning to the tournament. Key points: - Batman was eliminated in the first round of the DC K.O. tournament and was placed into fabricated realities by the Heart of Apokolips. - The Knightfight #4 preview shows a reality where Gotham is peaceful and Damian served as Batman before becoming a doctor and father to a son named Alfred. - The preview depicts an elderly Bruce questioning retirement while spending time with his grandson. - The article notes DC K.O.'s current Final Four includes Wonder Woman, Superman, Joker, and Lex Luthor. - DC K.O.: Knightfight #4 is scheduled to release on February 4. Summary: The preview presents an uncommon, peaceful scenario for Bruce Wayne that focuses on family and a life beyond the cowl. The full issue, arriving February 4, will show whether this reality endures or if Batman returns to the main DC K.O. tournament as the crossover continues.
