In the main timeline of DC Universe, Joe Chill killed Bruce’s parents that made Batman pursued him. This was perhaps one of the most prominent parts of the history of the Multiverse. For Bruce Wayne, as a child, it was difficult to overcome the loss of his parents and to face a person who murdered them. But he did face both situations that echoed his tremendous willpower. That is why he was granted the right to wield the Green Lantern ring.

As a result, Bruce killed all the Guardians and Lanterns and showed up as Batman the Dawnbreaker; the agent of death and darkness. This evolution of Bruce Wayne as a villain revealed his darker side to the mythology of the Lanterns and the fact that it could become darker with time.

With that said Bruce Wayne took and captured the Green Lantern’s powers and used them as a weapon to kill people and criminals. Who once meant to protect people, he is now thriving to dominate others. Bruce Wayne as Batman has always been an unyielding and rigid character, but Dawnbreaker’s existence echoed a different side of his villainous nature.
