Bat-Family
The Dark Knights of Gotham
Appearances: Son of Batman | Nightwing & Robin | Batman vs. Robin | Batman: Bad Blood | Justice League vs. Teen Titans | The Death of Superman | Batman: Hush | Justice League Dark: Apokolips War | DC Showcase – Constantine: The House of Mystery
A group of vigilantes that fight crime in Gotham. In General
- Adapted Out: Jason Todd, Tim Drake and Stephanie Brown are skipped with Damian being the second Robin. Also Cassandra Cain isn't present, while in the comics she debuted before Damian.
- Badass Normal: The whole team are this as none have any powers but both Batman, Nightwing and Robin fight on teams with superhumans with little issue. Unlike several superhumans, all but Nightwing survived Darkseid's invasion on Earth in Apokolips War while Alfred's and Lucius' fates were left unknown. Nightwing was later resurrected while Batman was Reforged into a Minion but Robin, Batgirl, Batwoman and Batwing all survived and were part of the final assault to defeat Darkseid two years after the invasion.
- Family of Choice: A downplayed example compared to most versions. However Bruce adopted Dick and Alfred was essentially Bruce's Parental Substitute, and Damian eventually warms up to them both meaning that this is true at least for the four main members.

Alfred Pennyworth
Alfred Pennyworth
Species: Human
Appearances: Son of Batman | Batman vs. Robin | Batman: Bad Blood | The Death of Supermannote | Batman: Hush
Voiced by: David McCallum (Son of Batman, Batman vs. Robin), James Garrett (Batman: Bad Blood, Batman: Hush)
Batman's surrogate father and butler.
- Battle Butler: Especially in both Batman vs. Robin, where he helps defend Wayne Manor from the Court of Owls, and Bad Blood, where he helps to stop the League of Shadows and defeats both Calculator and Mad Hatter. He's also the only one Bruce allows to use a gun, which he uses to defend the Wayne Manor during an intense battle.
- Boxing Battler: He defeated an enemy with his boxing skills despite armed with a knife.
- The Cameo: Briefly appears in The Death of Superman in a non-speaking role.
- Composite Character: Shared Oracle's role in Hush with Dick.
- Ink-Suit Actor: Coincidence, as he does fall under this once his voice actor from Batman: The Brave and the Bold, James Garrett (a.k.a. Avatar Roku), takes over, as Garrett does resemble Alfred.
- Parental Substitute: He was left with legal custody of Bruce after his parents' deaths, raising him for the remainder of his childhood. When Damian first meets him and refers to him as a servant, Bruce responds that Alfred isn't a servant, but a friend.
- Servile Snarker: A staple for Alfred, he's particularly snarky in dealing with Damian.
- What Happened to the Mouse?: We never learn what became of Alfred after the Time Skip in Apokolips War.
Lucius Fox
Lucius Fox
Species: Human
Appearances: Batman vs. Robinnote | Batman: Bad Blood
Voiced by: Ernie Hudson
An executive at Wayne Enterprises, Lucius helps supply Bruce with a lot of the tech he uses he uses as Batman.
- Early-Bird Cameo: He makes a minor cameo in Bruce's hallucination of a future where Damian becomes Batman, with Lucius being one of his victims.
- Gadgeteer Genius: In keeping with many versions of Lucius starting with Batman Begins, he's Bruce's tech guy, supplying Batman with many of his gadgets and devices.
- Honest Corporate Executive: A staple for the character, he's an honest businessman.
- Papa Wolf: Inverted as him getting hurt is why Luke becomes Batwing.
- Secret-Keeper: As mentioned before, he's like many versions of the character starting with Batman Begins. He serves as this for Bruce, even trying to deny it when his son Luke confronts him on it.
- What Happened to the Mouse?: Like with Alfred, we never learn what became of Lucius after the Time Skip in Apokolips War.

Voiced by: Sean Maher
Batman's first apprentice, the original Robin, and his adopted son. He's one of the founders of the Teen Titans alongside Kid Flash, Speedy and Bumblebee before leaving the Robin mantle behind and becoming Nightwing.
- Adaptational Jerkass: In Son of Batman he acts incredibly hostile towards Damian and refuses to bond with him. In the comics, he was the one who brought Damian into the fold and gave him the care and attention that led to Damian's Heel–Face Turn despite being exasperated with his behavior from time to time.
- Adaptational Relationship Overhaul:
- Him and Batgirl never had a romantic relationship like in the comics, and since she debuts as a hero in Bad Blood it's possible that she's a teenager instead of a twenty year old like him.
- Since Barry Allen is a Composite Character with Wally West and Dick was on the Teen Titans with him, Barry might be Dick's best friend in this continuity.
- Adaptational Wimp:
- In most fights he takes part in, he is soundly beaten, even by enemies he normally is much better than in original source material, thus ensuring that the Big Bad is defeated by another, more prominent character.
- This even extends to his small role in Teen Titans Go! vs. Teen Titans, where he had his uniform stolen by his counterpart from Teen Titans Go!. Unlike him his counterpart is still Robin and a teenager, while also being a poor leader who isn't nearly as respected or as skilled as the Robin from Teen Titans.
- Advertised Extra: In Justice League vs. Teen Titans he is included in team posters but has little impact on the story.
- Aloof Older Brother: Dick started off as this to Damian — telling him he'll never be Robin and enjoying kicking Damian's ass.
- Alternate Self: He has several in the multiverse, all of whom are the leaders of the Teen Titans, most notably his counterparts from Teen Titans Go!, Teen Titans, Tiny Titans and even The New Teen Titans comics. The first even stole his costume in a pointless attempt to steal his identity and experience more serious adventures, no doubt leaving Dick with negative feelings towards his Go! counterpart.
- Animal-Themed Superbeing: Since he goes by "Nightwing" and was the first Robin, it would be birds.
- Badass Biker: He owns an awesome motorcycle, which he uses for his vigilante missions.
- Badass Normal: Case in point, he was able to take on and win against the superhuman Blockbuster with only weapons.
- Butt-Monkey: He's regularly insulted and/or injured by Damian and has a hard time finding any moment to spend with his girlfriend, Kory.
- Came Back Wrong: In Justice League Dark: Apokolips War, Damian tried to resurrect him using the Lazarus Pits, but while it succeeded in bringing his body back, his soul didn't come with it.
- The Cameo: Appears briefly twice in Teen Titans Go! vs. Teen Titans.
- Character Development: Subtle, but Dick learns how to handle Damian's bratty outbursts, transforming from an Aloof Older Brother to Cool Big Bro and/or Big Brother Mentor.
- The Chew Toy:
- Almost nothing goes right for the poor guy, constantly losing to opponents that are below his weight level such as Scarecrow. Apokolips War delivers a coup de grace by having him being driven insane by the Lazarus Pits, with him ending the film in a straitjacket.
- Even his cameo in Teen Titans Go! vs. Teen Titans involves him getting his clothes stolen by his Teen Titans Go! incarnation, who is quite the Butt-Monkey.
- Composite Character: Due to Tim Drake's absence in this version, Nightwing fills in for him as the main target of Damian's insults. He also shared Oracle's role in Hush with Alfred.
- Cool Big Bro: While it does take time, Dick manages to become a friendly brother figure to Damian.
- Costume Evolution: In The Judas Contract he gains his New 52 black and red suit. He then switches to his finger-stripe suit in Batman: Hush.
- Covert Pervert: Some dialogue between him and Kory heavily implies they have a kinky sex life
- Curbstomp Battle: Every major battle he's involved in always has him on the receiving end. He fights a brainwashed-Bruce during the events of Bad Blood and he's soundly defeated with very little effort on the latter's part. He's about to get a much worse beating until Damian is forced to intervene to save him. He is also easily taken down by Scarecrow's fear toxin in Hush, requiring Catwoman to finish the fight.
- Deadpan Snarker: Makes many dry quips, especially in regards to Damian.
- Foolish Sibling, Responsible Sibling: The Responsible to Damian's foolish; while Damian is a major Leeroy Jenkins who causes friction with others due to his arrogant and tactless nature, Dick is an experienced hero who is better at handling people.
- Good People Have Good Sex: As shown in a lot of his dialog with Starfire, the two have a very good and even kinky sex life. Based on the Judas Contract where he and Kory move in together, after dealing with a phone message by Damian, they go on to have sex off screen.
- Honorary True Companion: He's the former leader of the Titans and still on good terms with them when he introduces Damian. He's also an Advertised Extra, appearing as a Titan in promo materials, He rejoins the team as second-in-command to Koriand'r before the events of The Judas Contract.
- Interspecies Romance: Him (a human) and beautiful alien Koriand'r (a Tamaranian).
- Mr. Fanservice: Being Nightwing, this is par for the course. He has quite a few shirtless scenes throughout his plot line.
- Official Couple: Has been in a relationship with Starfire/Koriand'r since he was the leader of the Teen Titans.
- Secret-Keeper: An extremely dedicated and impressive example as despite publicly working alongside other heroes as part of the original Teen Titans team, including Barry Allen who would be a founding member of the Justice League, he somehow keeps it hidden that his mentor is in fact real as Barry voices his surpise when he meets Batman for the first time.
- Sex God: Implied by Kory. Some of their dialogue with each other reveals they have a kinky sex life. And in Teen Titans: The Judas Contract, Starfire nearly says that Dick is "proficient" in the bedroom, only to be cut off by an embarrassed Dick.
- Shirtless Scene: In Son of Batman, when he gets bandaged up after fighting with Damian.
- Took a Level in Kindness: He becomes more like the Cool Big Bro to Damian like he was in the comics by Justice League vs. Teen Titans and later Judas Contract.
- Two First Names: His first and last name can both be used as a given name for a male.
- Unrelated in the Adaptation: The Talon used in The Court of Owles storyline in the comics was revealed to be his great-grandfather. The Talon in Batman vs. Robin is a normal person who looks to be his age, though the connection is noted in a Mythology Gag where the villain notes that Dick would have made a great Talon.
- "Well Done, Son" Guy: Nightwing really wants to live outside of Batman's shadow and make his own name, but he's certainly not on bad terms with his adoptive father. He is grateful to Bruce for taking him in and everything he has done for him. Despite "only" being his adopted son, which he shows some insecurities about, Dick very much considers Bruce his father and loves him as such. He even says Bruce is "the best man [he's] ever known".
- Would Hit a Girl: If his enemy happens to be a girl, he will attack them with no hesitation.
- Would Hurt a Child: Shows no qualms about attacking Damian, but this is justified given that Damian is a skilled warrior who was openly trying to kill him and someone else when they first met. Giving Dick little to no choice but to fight back.
Robin
Damian Wayne
In Apokolips War
Species: Human
Appearances: Son of Batman | Nightwing & Robinnote | Batman vs. Robin | Batman: Bad Blood | Justice League vs. Teen Titans | Teen Titans: The Judas Contract | The Death of Supermannote | Batman: Hush | Justice League Dark: Apokolips War | DC Showcase – Constantine: The House of Mysterynote
Voiced by: Stuart Allan
The biological son of Batman and Talia al Ghul. He becomes the second Robin after the fall of the League of Assassins and later a member of the Teen Titans.
- Absurdly Sharp Blade: When it's not being blocked by another sword or someone's armor, Damian's katana cleaves through mecha mooks like a hot knife through butter.
- Adaptational Backstory Change: A minor detail changed to simplify his backstory is that his conception was the result of Talia drugging Bruce, with it implied she actually was pregnant with him instead of Damian being grown in an artificial womb and genetically perfected.
- Adaptational Early Appearance: He's the second Robin in this version and Batman's second sidekick instead of Batgirl, while in the comics he was the fifth Robin (fourth in New 52 canon).
- Adaptational Nice Guy: As arrogant as he is in Son of Batman, Damian is nowhere near as bad as his comic self who tried to kill Tim Drake while this version was shown to be more conflicted about what he wanted much earlier than he did in the comics.
- Adaptational Relationship Overhaul:
- He presumably had a better relationship with his uncle Dusan than in the comics, since the latter never had a reason or the opportunity to try and sacrifice him to resurrect Ra's while before his death he appeared to have a better relationship with Talia than in the comics.
- He's typically a few years younger than Raven in the comics and other adaptions, so they never had a romantic interest in each other like they did in this version.
- Arrogant Kung-Fu Guy: Deconstructed. Damian has amazing fighting and warrior skills that make him a most deadly foe. However, his arrogant nature in thinking he's better than everyone, including those with superpowers, have led him to make impulsive decisions and be disliked among his allies. Even Bruce has a hard time dealing with Damian's cocky and reckless attitude.
- Ax-Crazy: Promptly in the first movie, his ruthless behavior shows and he believes that Murder Is the Best Solution (as he had been raised in this belief). He gradually tries to re-form his mindset to Batman's "justice over vengeance" stand, but has great difficulty. In Batman vs. Robin, Talon wants to take advantage of Damian's lingering violent side to turn him against Batman. Despite his difficulties, he ultimately chooses to stay loyal to Bruce. By the time his Teen Titans role comes around, he drops this side of him.
- Big Damn Kiss: He and Raven share their first (and final) kiss just before Flash resets the timeline again in Justice League Dark: Apokolips War.
- Birds of a Feather: He and Raven share a past in which their families groomed them for a role without any say in the matter (and a role they ultimately rejected). They also both have very complicated relationships with their families. This allows her to help bring out his better traits and they bond much easier than they do with the other Titans.
- Blood Knight: In the first movie, it's played straight that Damian really enjoys fighting and killing, claiming it was what he was trained to do (he isn't wrong). Even Deathstroke calls him out on this, saying his bloodthirsty behavior is one of his biggest flaws. Over the course of his storyline, he starts to mellow out. Despite this, his urge to fight is still present.
- Bratty Half-Pint: He starts out as a disrespectful and entitled runt who thinks he's always in the right, even with adults. This leads to...
- Break the Haughty: His story arc over the films is basically a litany of this, but perhaps the biggest one comes when he gets sent to live with the Titans. The whole point of his being sent to work with them was to teach him about teamwork (and give him an attitude adjustment). He arrogantly assumes the Titans are weak fighters with no real skills compared to him. After picking a fight with Blue Beetle, he wins with a very rough sneak attack — which gives Jaime's Scarab a chance to briefly seize control. Blue Beetle promptly blasts Damian in the face and nearly kills him. This moment, followed by Raven subsequently healing him and saving his life, makes Damian realize that the Titans aren't weak like he assumed (and that he isn't as powerful as he believed). He begins to act friendlier towards them, apologizes for his behavior (in his own way) and (begrudgingly) begins to accept his own weaknesses and flaws.
- Broken Ace: He's a skilled warrior, expert hacker, and has incredible willpower. Despite his strong abilities, Damian also has zero people skills and very high hubris that makes him generally unlikable, and struggles deeply with his Blood Knight tendencies which cause numerous issues with his relationship with Bruce. After joining the Titans, he makes significant positive changes to his personality and becomes better, and by The Judas Contract he seems to have realized that he was essentially raised by a cult which is a sharp contrast from his earlier high opinion of his family and the League. However, he's still basically "a dick" to people.
- Broken Pedestal: For his mother, whom he deeply loved and was attached to. In Batman: Bad Blood she shows that she was willing to kill him and have another child with a brainwashed-Bruce. This proved to Damian that she simply saw him as expendable and didn't truly love him as he did her.
- The Cameo: Briefly appears in The Death of Superman in a non-speaking role, while Hush is the first Batman film to not focus on him and instead he only briefly appears along with Titus.
- Character Development: Arguably experiences the most development out of any characters in the DCAMU. Damian is introduced as a petulant brat who has little qualms when it comes to killing. Batman vs. Robin and Bad Blood have him gradually develop into a better person, as he comes to embrace his father's "justice, not vengeance" creed; while the two Teen Titans films have him learn the importance of teamwork and that he's not as powerful as he initially thought, and firmly rejecting his past with the League. This is best demonstrated by his relationship with Dick: at first, the two can't stand each other, but develop a fraternal bond by Apokolips War which is why he decides to use the Lazerus Pit to bring him back to life. He also slowly comes to see how the Bat-Family and Teen Titans genuinely care about him, and by The Judas Contract realises that the League was nothing more than a cult trying to manipulate him. Sadly the dark and tragic events of Apokolips War resets some of this development with Darkseid's invasion causing the deaths of most of the Teen Titans and Dick, his father being brainwashed into a servant and the world seemingly being doomed. This causes him to return to the League as it's leader and become more willing to kill again, though at the same time he's far more mature and saddened about his situation.
- Child by Rape: His mother drugged his father in order to have sex with him and conceive a child. He later reveals to be aware of this, warning his father when learning he had a date to "cover his drink".
- The Comically Serious: Like in the comics, Damian's seriousness can be humorous, such as when he maintains his stoic expression during a dance contest that he handily wins.
- Composite Character: Damian took Adeline Kane's role in causing Slade to lose his right eye.
- Cool Sword: Uses a katana as his weapon. In Apokolips War, he uses a kryptonite one.
- Costume Evolution: In Son of Batman his cape is completely yellow except for his black hood which seemed stitched on. By Batman vs. Robin the outside of his cape was changed to black to match his hood while the inside remained yellow, and his hood now looks to naturally be part of his cape.
- Dark and Troubled Past: He was raised to be a lethal assassin since the literal day he was born. His childhood consisted of brutal training in the League of Assassins, including being sent to climb a mountain all on his own when he was only four-years-old. He broke his wrist, but still did it as he was expected to. He was also groomed to one day take over his grandfather's role as leader and lead an army to rule over humanity, killing those who defy them "if necessary". His dark childhood left him with little morality, an easily triggered temper and little respect for human life.
- Disney Death: In Justice League Dark: Apokolips War, he dies after taking Darkseid’s Omega Beams meant to Batman. Thankfully, Raven uses her magic to bring him to life again.
- Defensive "What?": He responds with one of these whenever his actions or quips give someone pause. It's a sign of insecurity and a lack of social understanding.
- Et Tu, Brute?: If only for a moment, Damian is genuinely stunned when Terra betrays him and hands him off to Deathstroke when he was only trying to help her.
- Even Bad Men Love Their Mamas: Despite being a brat, Damian deeply cared for his mother even after she betrayed him and his father.
- Foolish Sibling, Responsible Sibling: The Foolish to Dick's responsible. While Dick is an experienced hero who is better at handling people, Damian is a major Leeroy Jenkins who causes friction with others due to his arrogant and tactless nature.
- Hidden Depths: According to Raven, he's hurting on the inside and wishes to be a better hero. He also wants his father's approval while also wanting to make his mom proud until she tried to brainwash him and his father.
- Hair-Trigger Temper: Boy does he ever. Damian has a lot of anger that he unleashes on anyone who crosses his path, even family and allies. His anger can let loose just by being a huge Jerkass to everyone or using unnecessary violence. When Blue Beetle told him to show respect and calm down, Damian's reaction was to start a fight.
- Heel–Face Turn: From the ruthless Tyke Bomb heir of the League of Assassins, to a Jerk with a Heart of Gold who fights with the superheroes.
- Identity Breakdown: The conclusion of Batman vs. Robin shows him having a minor one following the death of Talon. He admits that he struggles with knowing what to do because he constantly hears the voices of his father, mother and grandfather telling him what he should do in every situation, leaving him unsure about what he wants to do. Bruce therefore allows him to leave with the belief he will return on his own, and he's proven right in Bad Blood with the following films showing Damian to be far more certain about himself and what he wants.
- Interspecies Romance: He's a normal human while Raven is half-demon.
- It's All About Me: If he does something reckless and/or outright stupid, it doesn't matter because he saved the day while everyone else didn't.
- Jerk with a Heart of Gold: Damian graduates to this status in Teen Titans: The Judas Contract. While he's still standoffish, he goes out of his way to try and help Terra, pressuring Raven to reveal what Terra was having nightmares about, and following Terra when he believed she was being stalked and tracked (though he was also suspicious of her actions). That said, he's still not above threatening his own teammates with his sword to get them to move when he's feeling impatient.
- Katanas Are Just Better: His go-to weapon of choice throughout all of his film appearances.
- Kid Hero: Is ten by the beginning of Batman vs. Robin, and in his early teens by the first Teen Titans movie.
- Kid Hero All Grown-Up: Starting out as ten years old, the films show him grow older and by Apokolips War he's at least eighteen years old.
- Legacy Character: The second Robin, following Dick.
- Lightning Bruiser: Surprisingly due to him being a child at the time, but he is often just as durable, strong, and possibly even faster than many of his opponents who are grown.
- Like Father, Like Son: He is slowly becoming like his father as he starts to become more tactical and stoic. He also wants to know everything about his team in terms of where they came from, their weaknesses, etc. This is shown when he puts tracers on everyone after their first literal meeting to keep tabs on them and does deep research on all of them after moving in. When he can't find any known history about Raven, he questions the choice to let a stranger in that they know nothing about (leading Kory to tell him to have faith in people and to have empathy). He also follows Terra when curious regarding her unknown whereabouts to make sure she isn't a threat or, in the very least, not being tracked or stalked.
- Muscles Are Meaningless: Despite being a child in Son of Batman, he's able to fight fully grown adults and is shown to be just as strong. This is slowly downplayed in later films where he's shown losing fights more while the fact he's getting older makes his victories more probable.
- Official Couple: With Raven, although it's just before they're both erased from existence, in Justice League Dark: Apokolips War.
- Promoted to Love Interest: He and Raven never had a romantic interest in each other, mainly because she is a few years older than him unlike in the DCAMU where they seem closer in age and spent several years together as friends.
- Redemption Demotion: Deathstroke says that Damian's time with the Titans and Batfamily has made him "soft" by the events Teen Titans: The Judas Contract. This is shown in that he no longer goes for lethal, decisive blows as he previously used to and has a more unwillingness to kill others.
- Reformed, but Not Tamed: He may joined the heroes, but he has still his Jerkass moments and desire to fight.
- Roaring Rampage of Revenge: In Son of Batman, he vows to kill Deathstroke for murdering his grandfather and demolishing his pride. Batman has to convince him that while murder and vengeance may be "easy", that doesn't make it right.
- Shipper on Deck: Damian approves of Dick and Kory's relationship.
- Ship Tease: Gets a lot with Raven after joining the Titans. They easily bond over their rough family histories, shared similar pasts and grow to understand each other in ways the other Titans can't. They become close and she soon becomes his Morality Pet, helping him to stay calm, and they're generally always seen next to each other. In the end of Judas Contract, she gifts him with a puppy that he names Titus and becomes fond of.
- Sociopathic Hero: He may be on the good side, but he's violent, arrogant, thinks he's always right, and has a messed up way of evacuating people. He gets better with Character Development, though.
- Strong Family Resemblance: A flashback to Bruce's childhood in Batman vs. Robin showed that young Bruce very much resembled his son. The only difference between them are Bruce's blue eyes whereas Damian inherited his mother's green.
- Taking the Bullet: In Justice League Dark: Apokolips War, After Batman breaks free from Darkseid's brainwashing, Darkseid fires an Omega Beam at him but Damian gets in front of him and gets badly burnt in the process.
- Teeth-Clenched Teamwork: He hates Superman in Apokolips War since he was the one leading the League during the first fight against Darkseid, and distrusts Constantine and Etrigan. The only reason he joins the heroes is because Raven asked him and to try saving a brainwashed Batman, or failing that kill him.
- Token Evil Teammate: Of the Bat-Family and the Teen Titans; he is the biggest jerkass among either team and is prone to use excessive violence.
- Took a Level in Kindness: He shows genuine concern for the Titans by the end of Justice League vs. Teen Titans and wishes to stay with them. By Judas Contract, he considers them his family and, when suspecting Terra may be hiding something, shows a protective nature over his teammates. Despite being suspicious, he tries to give her the benefit of the doubt and begins going out of his way to help her (albeit in his usual, confrontational manner). His time with the Titans clearly had a most positive impact on him.
- Trauma Conga Line: He endures a substantial amount of emotional and physical trauma throughout the series. He lost his grandfather in Son Of Batman, is forced to kill Talon (who commits Suicide by Cop) against his wishes during Batman vs. Robin (when he was desperately trying not to kill anymore), was emotionally manipulated and had to leave his family to re-discover himself again, got disowned by his mother Talia in Batman: Bad Blood, then had to fight a demonic doppelganger of his grandfather in Justice League vs. Teen Titans while learning he wasn't as good a man as he was led to believe. Finally, in Justice League Dark: Apokolips War, he was forced to watch Nightwing, whom he then considered his full brother, get fatally stabbed while protecting him. He is also forced to watch as his entire team (except Raven) is massacred, people he grew to consider his family and proudly fought side-by-side for years. In every one of these movies, he also endures a pretty brutal beatdown at least once.
- Troubled, but Cute: Damian is arrogant and grumpy due to his harsh upbringing, but he is also endearing.
- Two First Names: His first and last name can both be used as a given name for a male.
- Unrelated in the Adaptation: Given that Kate Kane doesn't seem to be Bruce's cousin in this version, that also means Damian isn't related to her.
- Unstoppable Rage: Due to his backstory being trained by the League of Assassins and having a bad temper, he usually fights very aggressively along with some angry growling and screaming.
- Vocal Evolution: Due to the movies being made over the time span of several years, Damian's voice grows noticeably deeper with each installment as part of his actor's natural aging.
- "Well Done, Son" Guy: In spite of his insufferable nature, Damian really wants to make his father proud and tries his best to change for the better.

Species: Human
Appearances: Batman vs. Robinnote | Batman: Bad Blood | The Death of Supermannote | Justice League Dark: Apokolips Warnote
Voiced by: Yvonne Strahovski
A former soldier who acts as a vigilante to avoid feeling like the victim.
- Adaptation Distillation: Batwoman's backstory, which took several comic issues to tell, is presented through flashbacks and exposition that amount to a couple of minutes of screentime at most. Her reason for leaving West Point is also changed from violating Don't Ask Don't Tell to just having a mental breakdown, probably to avoid having to explain the longer situation from the comic.
- Adaptational Jerkass: At least at first. Her behavior toward Batman in her flashbacks is markedly ruder than the same scene from the comics. This version is initially prone to using lethal force as a first resort.
- Adaptational Wimp: Unlike in the comics where she beat her attempted mugger before Batman arrived, here she needed to be saved by him.
- Alliterative Name: Kate Kane.
- Attempted Rape: The impetus for her becoming Batwoman was resentment at Batman having to save her from this. She was still in a bad time in her life, leaving a club drunk and willfully going down an alley with sketchy guys. She arrogantly assumed she could handle herself, only to be nearly forced on when the men attacked her. Being drunk, she couldn't fend them off until Batman saved her. She refused to thank him, upset she couldn't have handled it herself. She then vowed to never need his - or anyone else's - help again.
- Badass Biker: Rides a cool motorcycle when fighting crime.
- Badass Normal: As per usual with Bat-family members. She has advanced training and gear, but no superpowers. After getting her act together, she shows remarkable fighting and logic skills as Batwoman. Even Batman was impressed by her abilities.
- Boxing Battler: Not exclusively, but there are a few examples of her using boxing-style combinations while fighting.
- The Cameo:
- In Batman Vs Robin, she appears in Batman's hallucination of Damian growing up to be a more violent Batman who kills criminals and innocents including her.
- She appears at Superman's funeral in The Death of Superman.
- Her final appearance has her briefly fighting Parademons.
- Composite Character: Given that she uses guns which her comic self rarely did along with her Adaptational Jerkass making her a more distant member of the Bat-Family, she seems to fill the role of Jason Todd/Red Hood who was Adapted Out in this continuity.
- Daddy's Girl: Kate and her father get along extremely well and he is her main support system. He is fully aware of her Batwoman persona and supports her in any way he can in it.
- Dark and Troubled Past: She, her mother, and twin sister were taken hostage and their abductors decided to kill them. Kate was forced to watch as her mother and sister were murdered right in front of her. As her captors were about to shoot her, her father and a SWAT team arrived to stop them.
- Deadpan Snarker: She rivals Nightwing in terms of dry quips.
- Fiery Redhead: Downplayed. She's rather snarky, but is almost always calm.
- Hell-Bent for Leather: Kate's first scene out of the Batwoman costume shows her wearing a leather jacket.
- Hidden Depths: A talented artist.
- Made of Iron: She takes an uppercut from an enemy with superstrength and doesn't get knocked out or stay down for long. Later, she takes at least three hits across the jaw from a pistol and all it does is make her progressively angrier.
- Mama Bear: Inverted. She gives Talia a good sucker-punch for mind-controlling her father into trying to kill her. She adds after the bloody punch, "That's for what you did to my father, bitch!"
- Military Brat: When she was a child, her father was a colonel in the Army.
- Official Couple: She is officially dating Detective Renee Montoya at the end of Batman: Bad Blood.
- Red Is Heroic: While most of her outfit is black, she wears red gloves and has red bat emblem.
- Superhero Packing Heat: She regularly uses guns. This is why she's not officially affiliated with the Batfamily. Both she and Batman himself bring this up. They get her to switch to rubber bullets as a compromise when they have to work together.
- Tomboy with a Girly Streak: Kate is a superhero and former military cadet who sometimes wears a leather jacket when she's not fighting crime. She also enjoys sketching and has a set of pink shopping bags and lots of pink and purple clothes.
- Took a Level in Badass: Goes from a drunkard who has trouble defending herself to the kickass vigilante who will and can take on superhuman adversaries.
- Uncertain Doom: Glimpsed in Apokolips War battling the Parademons alongside Batgirl until she's knocked from a ledge and sent falling.
- Unrelated in the Adaptation: There's no mention of her being Bruce's cousin like in the comics, which is odd considering that this was revealed in the New 52 comics which this continuity was originally based on.
- "Well Done, Daughter!" Girl: Kate implies at the end of Batman: Bad Blood that she hopes to make her late mother and sister proud.
Batwing
Luke Fox
Species: Human
Appearances: Batman: Bad Blood | Justice League Dark: Apokolips Warnote
Voiced by: Gaius Charles
The son of Lucius Fox and fresh out of the military. He dons a suit of Powered Armor to fight crime under the name "Batwing".
- Badass Bookworm: Luke is a former soldier and skilled superhero who got good grades in college in subjects like math and science.
- Badass Normal: Even before becoming "Batwing", Luke was an expert in advanced hand-to-hand combat; he used to take down some of Herectic's goons by himself.
- The Cameo: His appearance in Apokolips War shows him fighting several Parademons in the air before his suit is damaged and he presumably falls to his death.
- Clothes Make the Superman: Most of his abilities come from the advanced Powered Armor he wears.
- Flight: Unlike the other members of the Batfamily, Luke has this capability via technology.
- Papa Wolf: Inverted. The main reason Luke became "Batwing"? To find the person responsible for injuring his father.
- Uncertain Doom: Last glimpsed in Apokolips War getting shot down from the air by Parademons with his battlesuit flaming.
Batgirl
Barbara Gordon
Species: Human
Appearances: Batman: Bad Bloodnote | Batman: Hush | Justice League Dark: Apokolips Warnote
Voiced by: Peyton List
The daughter of Commissioner Gordon, who takes up being a vigilante.
- Adaptational Late Appearance: Typically she makes her debut after Dick Grayson becomes Robin, but here she's the last member of the Bat-Family to appear after more modern characters like Damian and Batwing.
- Adaptational Relationship Overhaul: She and Nightwing never had a romantic relationship like in the comics, and since she debuts as a hero in Bat Blood it's possible that she's a teenager instead of a twenty year old like Nightwing which creates a different dynamic.
- Age Lift: Possibly, typically she and Nightwing are the same age while here she appears to be younger than him.
- An Arm and a Leg: In Apokolips War, Batgirl's right arm is torn from her body as the Paradooms begin to feast on her.
- Badass Normal: Out of all members of the Bat-Family, Batgirl lasts the longest against the Paradooms, despite lacking Batwoman's firearms or Batwing's advanced suit. She manages to take out several Paradooms with nothing but martial arts and basic weapons, before being eventually overwhelmed by them.
- The Cameo:
- Appears at the very end of Bad Blood. Despite only having about ten seconds of screentime, she still manages to grapple-hook across the Gotham skyline just as well as the rest of the Bat-Family.
- Her role in Batman Hush can be summed up as a glorified cameo, as she appears to take Batman to the bat-cave after he almost dies from a fatal fall while chasing Catwoman and disappears from the rest of the movie.
- In Apokolips War, she barely gets a few short scenes before being killed by Paradooms.
- Charles Atlas Superpower: She manages to defeat some Paradooms, despite not having kryptonite weapons.
- Composite Character: She takes over Huntress's role in Hush.
- Death by Adaptation: She is among the body count for Apokolips War.
- Decomposite Character: Her original role in Hush (during her time as Oracle) was taken by Alfred and Dick.
- Devoured by the Horde: In Apokolips War, she is overwhelmed by the Paradooms during the attack on the North Sea Reaper and eaten alive.
- Two First Names: Both "Barbara" and "Gordon" can be used as first names.
Titus
Titus
Species: Dog
Appearances: Teen Titans: The Judas Contract | The Death of Superman | Batman: Hush | Justice League Dark: Apokolips War | DC Showcase – Constantine: The House of Mysterynote
Voiced by: N/A
Damian's pet dog who was given to him as a gift by Raven.
- Adaptational Origin Connection: Typically Titus was adopted by Bruce to be a gift for Damian who he was having difficulty bonding with at the time, but in this version Raven is the one to give Damian Titus, long after Damian's and Bruce's relationship was at a more stable place.
- Canine Companion: Is always seen with Damian, who keeps him even when he takes over the League of Assassins.
- Composite Character: Ace isn't present in this version, meaning Titus takes on his role.
Catwoman
Selina Kyle
Species: Human
Appearances: Batman vs. Robinnote | Batman: Bad Bloodnote | Batman: Hush
Voiced by: Jennifer Morrison
A retired cat-themed thief and Batman's former love interest, who is forced by Poison Ivy to return to her criminal ways.
- Absurdly Sharp Claws: She wears gloves with diamond-tipped claws.
- Action Girl: She's one of the few people that can keep up with Batman.
- Adaptational Heroism: This version wanted to retire and leave her life of crime behind and is a more moral person in comparison to her New 52 version which was more amoral than her Post-Crisis version. This doesn't stop her from killing Edward Nygma at the end of Batman: Hush.
- Adaptational Relationship Overhaul: In this version she has Belligerent Sexual Tension with both Bruce and Batman, and she hasn't reached the point where she knows they are the same person. While Selina does usually meet Bruce in both of his identities, she's typically more drawn to Batman while here she is attracted to both of his identities and views Bruce Wayne as a potential romantic partner.
- Ambiguously Bi: How she speaks with Poison Ivy has the undertones of somebody talking with an emotionally abusive ex-lover.
- Animal-Themed Superbeing: A cat-themed burglar with peak-human skills.
- Badass in Distress: She's Hush's final target in the climax of the movie, where the villain takes her hostage to lure Batman into his final trap.
- Brainwashed and Crazy: The first act of Hush has her under control by Poison Ivy to use the thief's skills for her own benefit.
- Belligerent Sexual Tension: With Batman, as per usual. Interestingly she has it in different ways in his superhero and civilian identities: with Batman most of it comes down to the fact they are usually on opposite sides of the law, while with Bruce it was because they were of different social classes. They sleep together for the first time after Bruce decides that he wants her in his life.
- But Now I Must Go: The ending to Hush has Selina break up with Bruce once more, where she sets off to parts unknown to work out her own issues and wait upon the dark knight once more. She's never seen again.
- The Cameo: She first appears in Batman vs. Robin in Bruce's hallucination of a future where Damian becomes Batman, and later in Bad Blood Bruce's dream shows a woman from the back which resembles Selina's appearance in Hush.
- Deadpan Snarker: To contrast the stoic Batman, though admittedly he is this trope in films where he teams up with other heroes.
- Did Not Get the Girl: Like the comic, she and Bruce break up for good in the end.
- Heel–Face Turn: Her first major movie is all about turning over a new leaf and changing into a heroic vigilante in order to finally be with her Bat. Sadly, it doesn't last.
- Hell-Bent for Leather: Her catsuit is made of shiny black leather.
- Loveable Sex Maniac: Downplayed, but Selina has shades of this. One of the perks she discovers upon officially hooking up with Batman is how great it is in bed. When they become a Battle Couple they do it a lot.
- Ms. Fanservice: She wears a skin-tight, shiny black catsuit and focus is put on her bust and backside.
- Old Flame: Both she and Batman had a lust for each other before she retired, though it never made it past the lust part due to her being a thief and him a vigilante, and she had a similar relationship with him when he's Bruce which happened around ten years ago.
- Older Than She Looks: She looks to be in her thirties, but given that she mentions the last time she saw Bruce was around ten years ago and Batman is implied to be in his forties, it can be assumed that she's around the same age.
- Pay Evil unto Evil: Once she escapes Hush she doesn't waste any thought on killing him and forcing Batman to let him fall to his death. Unfortunately, this attitude shatters their relationship for good as Bruce can't let his personal feelings compromise his moral code.
- Relationship Upgrade: The Hush movie is all about her and Batman taking their relationship to the next level and confirmed once they share secret identities with one another.
- Two-Person Love Triangle: She doesn't know that Bruce and Batman are the same person, and spends most of Hush flirting with both while going on a date with Bruce.
- What the Hell, Hero?: She calls out Bruce for feeling sorry and attempting to save Hush after everything he's done. Blatantly pointing out how he tormented the Bat Family for months, sought their deaths, caused massive mayhem, and even tried to murder her not too long ago. Tragically, their conflicting moral codes leads to their break up.
