Okay, I said previously I’d make a post about Mary and John in the Lost Carnival book.
Well, here’s some key moments I found the most interesting and memorable from that book, a further showcasing how close knit of a family the Flying Graysons 1.0 are, no matter which DCU they inhabit
Amazing Acrobats As Per Usual, to the point even Dick (in fairness in this elseworld he’s a teen that’s been performing for a long time with his family) can say it’s boring lol
John catching up with his son after a small incident, part of the larger story of course, making sure he’s alright
This scene ……Oh Me Oh My…Dear God, X’hal and Rao gosh I love this scene so freaking much. Mary being there to comfort her boy and giving life advice (Granted sure it’s an elseworld so meaning it’s not Kory being involved sadly though I state had it been Kory, this advice would still be there. Mary seems like that kind of Mom ya know?)
And finally, these respecting their son’s choices with his life at this story, sure maybe entering college is drastically different from say being a colorful costume clad crime fighter he is canonically but I’m sure Mary and John will be able to respect that one way or another had they been present.
Gosh, I swear these two were such a highlight in this book, it even makes me pardon the fact that romance here isn’t with Kory. Oh well though, I take what I can get lol

So in the AU where all three Waynes do die, whether Alfred is Batman or a villain... what kind of charities is he naming after Bruce? Like in canon medical charities always go to Thomas and animal charities always go to Martha I think? I'm thinking children's charities. Like he hosts a charity auction for the Bruce Wayne Children's Fund and insists on having a moment of silence for Bruce.
I was thinking a new science wing at a museum in addition to Children’s charities, anon. Since Bruce loves dinosaurs and fiddling with science/tech things.
If Alfred was cruel and vengeful, he would use the money to set up a children’s trauma ward in Gotham. Somewhere for children suffering traumatic gunshot wounds (like Bruce did in that alley). So that Gotham can never forget not only that Bruce Wayne died as a child, but how he died.

Mike Mignola's and Dave Stewart's cover to Batman: The Doom That Came To Gotham #1 (November, 2000).
And before anyone starts complaining about the heater, be aware that this is an Elseworlds tale that takes place on an alternate Earth in the 1920s.
