I don't care too much as long as Terry exists somewhere.

Who the hell is the batman left of azrael? or the red armored batman? or the yellow one waaay in the back over damian bat's shoulder?
Batman inc Batfamily is the closest to my ideal one. Just change dick to nightwing.
In the core family Bruce, Dick, Tim, Damian, Barbra, Cass, Steph, Alfred
Auxiliary and associated family, Kate Kane, Selena Kyle, Jason, Tam Fox, Prudence, and really anyone else I might be forgetting.
I like my Bat-senpai bloated and varied. It makes for bringing up interesting or entertaining dynamics.

>Nightwing, but put him in Bludhaven.
>Red Hood, but never in gotham city.
>Red Robin
>Damian Wayne as Robin
>Barbara as Oracle
>Cassandra as Blackbat, or Orphan or whatever but give her her Batgirl costume.
>Stephanie as Batgirl.
Then people like Kate Kane, Azrael, or Catwoman are technically related but are entirely their own thing.
Alfred, Babs, Dick, dead Jason, Tim, occasional Huntress, and sometimes Catwoman.
Everyone else can fuck off. Shit is already too crowded

Bruce - Running Inc., dealing with League stuff, Batman of the world
Tim - Red Robin, works alongside Bruce

Babs - Wheelchair Oracle, running BoP and Batfamily operations

>>84236716
Absolutely based
Harold Allnut
angry spurnful Dick
dead/evil Jason
crippled Babs
annoying bitch Damien
I like my batfam lean, mean and maximum tragedy
>>84236752
>no bruce
>hello dickman
I think we can all agree Babs should stay crippled
Daily reminder that the Bat-family pre-New 52 was the best it's ever been and ever will be.
>>84236877
>dickman
I like my Batfamily big.
>Bruce as Batman
>Alfred as Alfred
>Dick as Nightwing
>Jason as Red Hood
>Tim as Red Robin
>Damian as Robin
>Barbara as Batgirl
>Cass as Blackbat/Orphan
>Stephanie as Spoiler
>Duke Thomas leading street Robins, not being Banana Robin
>Harper as Harper (shows up very rarely, currently retired, occasionally as Bluebird)
Batwoman, Catwoman, Talon, Azrael, Huntress exist somewhere in Gotham City, show up in some biggest crossovers (Batman Eternal finale etc), but they aren't that close to the family.
>>84237118
>babs as batgirl
>Stephanie not batgirl
Disgusting
Bruce
Alfred
Dick
Damian
Babs
I like a smaller Batfam
Core:
Bruce
Alfred
Robins
Babs
Secondary
Huntress
Man-Bat
other Batgirls
Tertiary:
The rest of them
>>84236716
this, as long as Red Hood still kills bad guys all the time like the first times he appeared, and Red Robin has his original cowl
Do you think we will ever see Azrael again? I don't remember any mention of him in the New 52. Is it possible with Rebirth he might make an appearance?
>>84237599
He came back in BRE and is gonna be in 'Tec
Mine requires eras of Batmen
Bruce era
Bruce-Batman
Dick- Robin into Nightwing
Jason- Robin 2 into Dead
Barbara-Batgirl into Oracle
Cass- Batgirl 2
Dick era
Dick-Batman
Damien- Robin
Barbara- Oracle
Steph- Batgirl 3
Kate- Batwoman
Damian era
Damian as Batman with no Batfamily
Terry era
Terry as Batman Beyond
>>84237630
Really? Damn, must have missed those issues. To the comic book store.
>>84234485
>so, if you could how'd you carve up the Bat family?
If I could reboot everything as I please, I would retire Bruce into a gray-haired mentor role, have Dick be Batman, Tim be Robin, Jason be dead, Damian (in his 20s, no costume but business suits) would not be a member but would fill some kind of a "conflicted insider" role the way Talia used to in the Al Ghul camp, Cass would be Batgirl, Steph would be Spoiler, Barbara would be crippled and Oracle.
Roles:
Bruce - I used to be Batman
Dick - I'm Batman
Tim - Kind of a hybrid of all the Robin roles, a geeky, athletic down-to-earth perspective on things
Cass - Tragic moe waifu beatdown extravaganza
Barbara - Tragic reminder of what happens if Cass fucks up
Steph - Comic relief, main duty is making everybody else look good
Yes, this is a pasta. I'm using it because this thread comes up all the time, and the answer doesn't change.
What they have now is fine, just cripple Barbara again and erase Damian from existence.
>>84237670
Don't get too excited. It's Azrael in name only. The standard treatment DC gave to all 90's characters; rewrite their origins completely.
>>84234485
>Bruce
>Alfred
>Dick
>Cassandra
>Tim
>Babs as Oracle
Thats it, everyone else is superfluous.

Bruce and Alfred
Year 3:
Dick, and Batgirl
Year 5:
Bruce starts working with Catwoman

Dick quits to lead Titans full time, Jason joins and dies after 9 months

>>84237948
This pretty much.
Batman, Robin, and Batgirl
Batgirl is operating on her own, and Beuce is actively trying to get Dick to go to college and be a philanthropist
Alfred is just a butler, Batman doesn't have an autistic son, and there aren't 8 Batgirls/Batwomen
