The Batman Who Laughs (Bruce Wayne) is a supervillain appearing in American comic books published by DC Comics. Created by writer Scott Snyder and artist Greg Capullo, he is an evil counterpart and alternate version of Batman within the Dark Multiverse.
He is depicted as a hybrid of both Batman (Bruce Wayne) and Batman's archenemy Joker, and is a member of the Dark Knights and the overarching antagonist of the Dark Multiverse Saga, alongside cosmic deities Perpetua and Barbatos, from 2017 to 2021, following DC Rebirth. His first appearance was in the crossover storyline Dark Nights: Metal, before receiving his own series and serving as the main antagonist of Batman/Superman in 2019 and DC Comics' Year of the Villain alongside Lex Luthor.
His name is an allusion to the original Batman's seriousness and to the 1928 film The Man Who Laughs, which served as inspiration for the Joker.
