#Dan doesn't leave criminals in the Batcave or the Mansion

[mikami1992]

Oh yeah, he definitely does..

He leaves them in the Bat Signal, he usually ties them up with gift bows, a folder with his crimes and investigations (if Batman isn't already investigating them) and with the Bat Signal on.

He also leaves messages and love letters… the first ones are written with letters cut out of magazines and the second ones written with a typewriter…

At first the Batkids stole Batman's notes and fan letters, you know just for blackmail… until "THE LETTER" came along… after reading that, they never tried to see what the love letters to Batman said again.

Everyone still blushes/gets disgusted like they do at his mention…

Finally, after some missions through time, Dan has managed to be approved as "Officially Reformed", and only with some supervision from Clockwork and Danny, will he be free to return to live in the human world.

So with the help of Clockwor, Tecnus and Tuker, an identity was created for him as a Young Adult, who after a few years of traveling around the world, returns to the United States to begin his University studies.

Dante Jackson Nightingale is a Young Adult recently enrolled in Gotham University to study Business and Finance with some elective classes in Engineering, being the place chosen for the high educational level as well as the level of ecto of the city… but the Phantom of the future has other hidden intentions.

During his 10 years of rampant destruction, Dan had a period of "calm", the reason, the strange relationship he developed with Batman, a relationship that was about to bring the angry spirit back to sanity by focusing his obsession on something else…

But it all ended when a surviving and better-funded group of GIW caught Red Hood to experiment on him, so the Batfam immediately went looking for him, and at first the rescue everything went according to plan, but it was until the end where everything went off the rails with the appearance of the Joker… it was never known how it all ended with the explosion of the bat, but it ended up costing the lives of the Bat and the Clown, and some permanent damage to some of the Batkids.

The death of the Knight of Gotham City ended up reviving and fanning the flames of anger and destruction within Dan, which would cause a destruction greater than anything known before.

So, in this new reality, Dan plans to continue with his original intentions with the bat, this time proving that he was a worthy partner for the Dark Knight.
