Meet Alfred's long-lost clone brother.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT One of the major plot tropes comic books love to use is that of the long-lost family member. From Spider-Man's sister to Batman's boomerang-hurling older brother, comics aren't shy about bringing back old family members — which is exactly why Alfred Pennyworth's long-forgotten brother needs to make a return.
Comic books love to bring out the long-lost relative for a good plot twist. It's been done with Daredevil, Spider-Man, Superman, Nightwing, Batman, and more. It would be easier to list the characters who haven't revealed secret family members. But Alfred Pennyworth's family life has rarely been explored. Avid comic fans will know that Alfred's father was the Wayne butler before Alfred arrived and that Alfred Pennyworth has a daughter named Julia.
Alfred's Brother Was the Original Dark Knight Alfred's shocking brother is revealed in All-Star Batman #14 by Scott Snyder, Rafael Albuquerque, Jordie Bellaire, and Steve Wands. Alfred had been cloned by his old mentor Briar, and this clone is technically DC's first Dark Knight. The Alfred clone is never given a proper name, but, as a perfect genetic clone, this makes the Dark Knight essentially Alfred's brother — at least in every physical way.
With Alfred dead, it feels as though every aspect of his life is being phased out. Dr. Leslie Thompkins, Alfred's love interest, hasn't appeared in the main universe since he died, and Julia cut all contact with the Bat-Family. The return of Alfred's evil clone would be an amazing villain for the Bat-Family to overcome, especially since the Dark Knight defeated Batman in both of their encounters.
The Dark Knight Vanishes and Isn't Seen Again The Bat-Family have all been trying to deal with Alfred's passing in their own way. Nightwing has used the fortune left to him to create charities and improve the city of Blüdhaven. Damian struggled with the idea of reviving Alfred, and Bruce was a true mess after Alfred's death. However, the family has begun to move on.
