InFlashpoint Beyond # 2by Geoff Johns , Tim Sheridan , Jeremy Adams , Xermanico , and Mikel Janin , Batman disposes of the foeswith the same brutal efficiency that Bruce Wayne would . But there is one clear difference that is render in the fight . After every ivory - vanquish maneuver , Batman calls out the precise aesculapian damage he is doing to his victims . One such wound is a colonial distal femur break . Another injury is a segmental fracture of the ulnar shaft . This comes from Thomas ’s anatomic knowledge as a sawbones . He know exactly how he ’s hurt someone and the recovery that is required .
Bruce is incredibly intelligent . He knows a wad about the human body and apply that noesis to great effect in his fights . But he is not a surgeon . He is n’t even a doc . So despite being knowing , Bruce does n’t have the medical expertiseto call out the exact injury he is causing when he thrum someone up . He probably has a unspoilt mind of how much he is hurting someone , but his sire ’s perceptivity into causing devastation to the human physical structure goes way beyond anything Bruce can muster .
This is also fabulously shivery for what it reveal about Thomas Wayne ’s theatrical role . As a doctor , he ’s train the Hippocratic Oath to " do no hurt , " which is precisely what he ’s doing as Batman . He ’s occupy the knowledge he ’s earn to help the great unwashed as a surgeon and is flipping it around to maximize the hurt he induce others . Unlike Bruce , who only knows so much about the bones he breaks , Thomas can translate the nuances of the injury and the farsighted - term event that fare with it . So while there are many difference between the two versions , beingFlashpoint Batmanmeans understanding the painhe causes more than Bruce Wayne ever could .
