Over the years, there have been many different versions of Bruce Wayne, whether it’s in comics, video games, television or even on the big screen. From David Mazouz’s young Bruce Wayne on the Fox series Gotham to the recent re-imagining of the Caped Crusader’s origin in the DC Zoom graphic novel Batman: Overdrive, many creators have provided individual takes on the character. Throughout most of these different interpretations, there is one constant: Bruce Wayne is Caucasian. That makes sense, because it’show he was originally introduced in 1939’s Detective Comics #27.
This is perhaps why the new DC Ink original graphic novel Gotham High is such a milestone. Readers are introduced to yet another version of Gotham and the characters that inhabit the city — and it changes things in a big way. In fact, in Melissa de la Cruz and Thomas Pitilli’s graphic novel, we are introduced to an Asian-American Bruce Wayne.
