Batman Learned The Importance Of His Family From A Ruthless Killer

Spoilers for Batman: The Detective #3 ahead!

Batman has a large army of allies at his disposal, and in Batman: The Detective #3, DC reveals the reason Batman does not work alone—and it goes all the way back to the days when he was training to become the Dark Knight. The issue, the third of a six-issue miniseries, is on sale now in print and digital.

Before he became Batman, Bruce Wayne travelled the world, studying various fighting techniques and martial arts. He also studied with some of the world’s most notorious detectives and bounty hunters, and one of them was Henri Ducard. First introduced in 1989’s Detective Comics #599 and created by Sam Hamm and Denys Cowan, Ducard trained a young Bruce Wayne in art of “manhunting.” However, the two had a falling out, but have encountered each other on several occasions over time. Ducard has proven a popular character and has (sort of) made the transition to movies—it was the alias Ra’s Al Ghul used in Batman Begins. While the comic version has no affiliation with the League of Assassins, he is still a formidable hunter, and he helped teach a young Batman a very important lesson.

While overseas in Europe on a case, Batman thinks back to his time training with Henri Ducard, starting from the time he found Ducard and convinced Ducard to train him. Bruce Wayne proves to be an apt pupil, learning much from Ducard. One lesson he tries to impart is to never work alone, and Bruce learns this lesson the hard way. In order to impress Ducard, Bruce tracks down an accountant to two crime families, who Ducard is also trailing. Bruce tracks the accountant to his house, but he is ready for Bruce and manages to knock him out. When Bruce comes to, he then realizes that Ducard was right: he should have brought back up. Just as the accountant is about to kill Bruce, Ducard bursts through the door, just in time to save Bruce and kill the accountant—a move that leads to his falling out with Bruce.

Over time, Batman has amassed a large number of allies—Robin, Nightwing, Oracle, Red Hood, and so on. They have aided him all throughout his crusade against crime, and each one brings something to the table, something that gives them an edge and also helps Batman at the same time. There is strength in numbers, and Batman learned this lesson—but it almost cost him his life.

Batman’s apprenticeship was a long and tough one, and he learned many valuable lessons that would help him down the line, and in Batman: The Detective #3, readers learn why he never works alone. The issue is written by Tom Taylor, with art by Andy Kubert, inks by Sandra Hope, colors by Brad Anderson and letters by Clem Robins.
