Alfred Pennyworth (The Batman)

Alfred Pennyworth is Bruce Wayne's butler, he helps the Batman on many of his missions. He was hired by Bruce's father to work around the house but when Thomas Wayne died, he was passed on to Bruce.

History
Alfred Pennyworth cleaned Wayne Manor and helped Batman remember to be Bruce Wayne by keeping him notified of his many meetings and by reminding him to be more open to the public.

For two years Batman fought small thugs and Alfred usually just watched him, but when the Joker appeared, it got more serious as then more advanced thugs started rousing.

While Batman was on his missions, Alfred was at the Batwave directing him through and helping him, or dusting the Batcave and creating a gallery of Batman's "souvenirs". Apparently Alfred's grandfather worked for the Cobblepots but was fired, giving him a hatred for the Penguin, especially since this Cobblepot was as obnoxious as his ancestors.

Batman took in new friends, like Batgirl and Robin and Alfred soon learned to care for them just as much as he cared for Bruce.
