* AdaptationExpansion: The retelling of this story in ''Secret Origins #6'' adds a number of elements that recontextualize its events. For instance, we learn that Commissioner Gordon is an old friend of Bruce's Uncle Phillip. Bruce is visiting him at the start of the story hoping to get a desk job at the GCPD (his first mission as Batman having not gone entirely smoothly). It's his successful solving of "The Case of the Chemical Syndicate" that convinces Bruce he has what it takes to continue as Batman, and so he gives up his dream of a career in law enforcement.

* BlackAndGreyMorality: In stark contrast to his contemporary Superman, where the lines of morality were [[BlackAndWhiteMorality crystal clear]].

** His initial costume is very different from what we think of, most notably with purple gloves and the bat-ears being set much lower and not even visible in profile shots. The design of the costume would be adjusted over subsequent appearances, with the traditional elements not finalized until, appropriately enough, the debut of Robin.
