thank u to @princess-of-purple-prose for the id !! [ID: Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint of Kim Dokja in Demon King of Salvation form, shown with a sad expression as he holds his sword in one hand and his cellphone in the other. He has two sets of wings, one black and one white, and a radiating golden halo backs his head. The background is bright red; at the top is the word "salvation," and at the bottom, white pages flutter down. End ID]

I actually think this Dark Knights of Steel twist-reveal with Alfred as martian manhunter was a really fascinating one (I genuinely loved it).
An Elseworlds continuity which really took advantage of being able to take different interpretations of a character, by the writer of the Nightwing series where the presence of Alfred is felt throughout, despite his pre-series death
Here we have him as the last survivor of a genocide, who lost absolutely everything. Felt he failed in the worst possible way, as his fatally wounded child died in his arms - unable to even offer him any comfort, with both being telepaths.
He flees a dead world. Gets to try again. Martha and Thomas Wayne know what he is, but conceal the secret. Have him as one of their most trusted retainers, friends.
He gets to try again.
A smile on his face, he gets to see another boy grow.
Even as Martha and Thomas are murdered, he stays with their son, looking after him no matter what. Having faith in him. Loving him. To the point where a man who had his adored son brutally murdered in the dark, able to do nothing but watch him die, looks at this orphaned alien child and says -
-as he holds the lasso of truth.
It adds an additional, really interesting factor to the paternal relationship he has with Bruce in this particular setting. I wish we got to see more of it. Perhaps if they ever do more "Tales of the Kingdom", we may get to see it in a prologue manner.
