So, by this time it was not yet canon that Alfred had been Bruce's guardian after his parents had been killed? Because he says he wasn' there for Bruce growing up and that Bruce was already Batman when he first entered his employ.
Come to think of it, when DID it become canon that Alfred had brought up Bruce?
How much do I love that photo of wee!Timmy on Dick's lap, surrounded by their families? I wish that had come out again at some point after this story arc, but then, we can't have nice things.
