Bruce Wayne, a wealthy industrialist, playboy, and philanthropist, is Batman's secret identity. As a child, witnessing his parents' murder drives him to train himself to physical and intellectual perfection and don a bat-themed costume to fight crime. Operating in the fictional Gotham City, Batman is assisted by various supporting characters, including his sidekick Robin and his butler Alfred Pennyworth, and battles an assortment of villains influenced by the characters' roots in film and pulp magazines. Unlike most superheroes, he possesses no superpowers; instead, he relies on intellect, detective skills, science and technology, wealth, physical prowess, and intimidation in his war on crime.
