It's just my idea of how I'd do "Gotham", the television programme about the adolescent Bruce Wayne.
The programme misses quite a few opportunities to introduce entirely new characters or have biographies of the family background of established DC universe characters i.e. say The Joker's father.
It would be interesting to introduce The Batman as a potential villain, eliminating Gotham's underworld as part of Bruce's need for revenge. But he is redeemed when his methods don't work against powered or supernatural characters or simply by his first meeting with The Man of Steel.
My main thought is that Bruce himself becomes a suspect, and is even imprisoned, in the case of his parent's murder. The theory being that the young Bruce Wayne hired the underworld to eliminate his parents so he could take over Wayne Industries, and, perhaps, even the entire city.
The background to this is Bruce suffering three/four years of bat-related nightmares after accidentally finding the future Batcave on the family estate. Eventually these nightmares end on a rare visit to downtown Gotham, but on the night of Thomas and Martha Wayne's slaying.
