    Summary

    Will thought the worst was over. He'd jumped dimensions, stopped a Kryptonian invasion, made up with Joey, and was finally settling into what seemed to be a happy life. Maybe not a quiet life, but a good one just the same.

    And then he woke up in a Lazarus pit, years in the past and apparently alone.

    Knowing the things he does, letting the timeline progress normally isn't an option, and once he's already changed one thing, what's a few more?

    ---

    A sidestory to the 'More to Being a Father' Series (found here), focusing on Will (Comics Slade) ending up back near the start of the Arkhamverse and deciding (mostly through pure spite) that the only valid option is to just fix everything as aggressively as possible. Step One: Get Jason away from the Joker. Step Two: Murder the Joker with extreme prejudice. Step Three: Fend off Batman taking issue with said murder.

    Probably.
