History WMG / TheDarkKnightRises

Using the same reasoning as a WMG about [[WesternAnimation/YoungJustice Artemis Crock]] says you wouldn't think to look for someone who actually shares the name HiddenInPlainSight

[[WMG: Selena Kyle's roommate's name is really [[Characters/BatmanHarleyQuinn Harley Quinn]].]]

Think about it, he's a detective who comes into Bruce's life after a tragedy (ComcicBook/DeathInTheFamily in the comics, [[Film/TheDarkKnight Racheal's death]] here). Finds out who he is all on his own with nothing but his detective skills. And after Bruce's supposed "death" prepares to take over the mantel of Batman. Of course Tim in the comics was just a boy when he was introduced so he became the third Robin instead but still. Their last names are also similar, though that could just be a coincidence. The reason he wasn't explicitly named Tim Drake in the movie? They were planning for a big surprise but DC/WB veto'ed it hence the whole "Robin won't appear in the Dark Knight Trilogy." He was supposed to, but DC or WB said no.

...Who's spent time in Africa and was inspired by Selina to go into business for himself as Catman.

* A casting case that might suggest a link: Christopher Guest, the actor who played Teal'c in the ''Stargate'' franchise, is the captain of the team of henchmen that captures Blake during his aborted attempt to rescue cops from underground.

The third board member who turns on the fusion device is played by the same actor who played John Greer from ''Series/PersonOfInterest''. In the first movie we are told that the League of Shadow's has infiltrated all levels of society, so it's entirely likely they've recruited a member of the Wayne Enterprises board who also believes in the decline of Western Civilization and the need to begin anew. After the Gotham plan failed, the League decided to invest their hopes in Samaritan instead. This is why we never find out who Decima Technologies are in the POI universe, as they're just another front of the League of Shadows.

*** Commissioner Gordon was there at Bruce's funeral; most likely he told Alfred the truth about Miranda. (Even if he didn't, the truth about her had probably become public knowledge anyway, because what reason would Gordon have to keep it a secret?) Gordon probably also told Alfred the story of how Selina courageously helped Batman to save Gotham. Hence Alfred's image of Selina was changed, and he imagined Bruce with her, since he knew Bruce was attracted to her.

* Possibly, though the point about SelfDemonstrating/TheJoker has been {{Jossed}}. WordOfGod is that he was put on trial and quietly executed after ''Film/TheDarkKnight''.

Think about it.The last thing Talia saw of Bane before she escaped was a legion of angry, probably horny prison inmates piling on top of him. If this is the case, it could explain why he is in constant pain, as his anus has been completely and utterly WRECKED.
