Alternate Universe Thread #2: Familiar people leading different lives at the exact same time.

CULTURE SHOCK

When Peter erased himself from existence with the Wave Sink Device, he apparently took Batman with him, for Mantis exists in his place in the altered alternate universe timeline.
(Interesting note: Batman was never replaced in our altered timeline).



You may or may not have realized that this change had a gigantuous ripple effect on pop culture in the AU.

Here is just a sampling of movies, television series, and comic books that were never made in the alternate universe as a result of Batman's erasure 'over there'. Remember that this is just the tip of the iceberg.

Movies:

Batman (1943)
Batman and Robin (1949)
Batman: The Movie (1966)
Batman (1989)
Batman Returns (1992)
Batman Forever (1995)
Batman & Robin (1997)
Superman vs. Batman (2004)
Catwoman (2004)
Batman Begins (2005)
The Dark Knight (2008) - Co-starring Heath Ledger, who may still be alive 'over there'.
Superman vs. Batman 2 (2010)
Mask vs. Joker (2010)
The Dark Knight Rises (2012)
Batman vs. Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016)
The Lego Batman Movie (2017)
Joker (2019)

*Since The Dark Knight Rises was never filmed, the 2012 Aurora, Colorado shootings would have never taken place in the altered alternate universe timeline. Or possibly even in the original alternate universe timeline.

Television:

The two most noteworthy:

The 1960's television series Batman starring Adam West and Burt Ward. Yvonne Craig Played Batgirl (no Batgirl either 'over there').

The FOX television series Gotham (2014 - 2019).
(Unless perhaps Mantis lives there).

Radio:

Batman never had a radio series of his own (perhaps in the alternate universe).

Comics:

None of the comic book series dating back to 1939 or the animated series or any of the toys,

... and we never did find out whatever happened to Superman as a result of Batman's erasure 'over there'.
