Detective No. 27 is an Elseworlds story retelling the Batman mythos. Bruce Wayne never becomes the caped crusader, instead joining a conspiracy known as the Secret Society of Detectives formed by Allan Pinkerton to fight the Knights of the Golden Circle shortly after the Civil War. The society consists entirely of top operatives worldwide, each receiving the designation Detective and a number in chronological order, with Wayne being #27. The story is told through Wayne’s adventures starting in the year 1939 and flashbacks to the society’s inception and earliest adventures…

Story/Spoilers
Bruce Wayne is a member of the Secret Society of Detectives that has waged a clandestine seventy–five–year war against a nihilist organization called the Knights of the Golden Circle since Lincoln’s assassination after the American Civil War. The year is 1939, and Wayne has returned to Gotham City after years of training with the notion of avenging the murder of his parents on his mind. However, because of his skills, he is monitored and recruited by the Secret Society and renamed Detective #27 – obviously a play on Batman’s first appearance in Detective Comics no. 27 in 1939, and he becomes embroiled in a mystery that will ultimately raise a number of questions about his parents’ deaths.
