Synopsis

After living his whole life as Batman, Bruce dies peacefully of old age, only to discover that he has become young again and transmigrated to a parallel universe without a "Batman."

Of course, this universe has a Bruce too. But when the Waynes were murdered, this Bruce was also left disabled. He wanted to use charity to transform Gotham, and did become an idol in the hearts of its people, but his health ultimately led to his early death. What's more, in his brief 25-year life, he raised four birds.

The Justice League still exists, but the young hero called "Nightwing" has taken over Batman's role.

At its heart, this is a story about the Batfamily, with Superbat (the Superman of a parallel universe x the Batman who transmigrated here). The synopsis may sound a bit serious, but it's actually a lighthearted, silly story.

Primarily DC, with a little crossover into the wider world of American comics. I haven't read much of the MW universe, so it won't appear here.

Core Theme: An encounter across time, long fated to happen.

Mostly DC, With a Little of Everything Else

No romance, romance, all kinds of genres, and so many delicious abandoned stories…

The Superhero Fandom of Years Past

Mainly BL, no-couple stories, and male protagonists with a bottom as the main character, plus a little het romance with a female protagonist and a top as the main character. I’m still adding reviews… Since JJ pulled that shady move, I can’t give five stars, so I’m changing my rating in protest.
