The issue offers very few clue as to the indistinguishability of the newBatman . One hint comes when He - Man ’s companions , including the comical wizard Orko , offer to lend their economic aid to the struggle to save Earth . Despite Teela ’s reservation , Batman says Orko can come along because " he makes me express joy . " Later , Harley Quinn look up to the new Batman as " Baby Bats " and tauntingly slap his derriere .

While possessing a far greater tendency toward uttermost violence than his father , Damien has been shown to have an perceptiveness for infantile humour and indulging those few things that appropriate him to get the normal childhood that was denied him . He ’s also been shown to have a firm disfavour of Harley Quinn , who derisively call in him " Baby Bats " more than once . While Damien contend against The Insurgency in bothInjusticegames , his final fate inInjustice 2was left indeterminate , so it is not inconceivable that he switched sides after check what Superman had done to his father . It ’s also worth noting that Cyborg - who was as truehearted to the Regime as Damian was - is now part of The Insurgency in this comic .
