Flashpoint Beyond is an American comic book published by the publishing company DC Comics. The seven-issue limited series—written by Geoff Johns, Jeremy Adams and Tim Sheridan and illustrated by Eduardo Risso, Xermánico and Mikel Janín—began its monthly publication from April 12 to October 18, 2022. It is the sequel to the limited series Flashpoint (2011) by Johns and Andy Kubert. The series received critical acclaim from critics, with critics praising the writing, art, action, and characters. The series would later go on to set up the events of The New Golden Age.

After helping Barry Allen—the speedster superhero The Flash—restore the timeline back to its original state, Thomas Wayne—the vigilante Batman—finds himself once again in the aberrant timeline known as the Flashpoint, whose existence Batman is determined to change and replace with another version of the DC Universe (DCU), all for the sole purpose of erasing the death of his son Bruce.

Batman enlists Mime and Marionette (from Doomsday Clock) to sneak into the Time Masters' headquarters and steal a snowglobe that houses the Flashpoint timeline to save his father from being erased from existence. This causes Thomas Wayne to wake up in his reality where Penguin works for him, before heading to meet Harvey Dent, Harvey tells Thomas that his wife is obsessed with Martha Wayne - this reality's Joker. Thomas confronts this world's powerless Barry Allen, attempting to recreate the experiment that gave Barry his powers, but someone interferes, killing Barry. Moments later, Harvey Dent is killed by an assassin who destroys the car. Thomas saves Harvey's son Dexter before confronting and killing the assassin, who says Aquaman sent him to stop Barry Allen from becoming the Flash. Back on Earth Prime, Bruce is confronted by Corky Baxter, who warns him that Rip Hunter and the Time Masters will come after him.

A news report states that the Battle for Britain was lost and that the world's heroes have failed to stop the war between the Amazons and the Atlanteans, who are now entrenched in Britain. Aquaman interrupts the news broadcasts demanding that the humans withdraw from the oceans and turn over all nuclear weapons to Atlantis in 12 hours or everyone will drown starting with Britain. Back at Wayne Manor, Thomas introduces Dexter to Oswald and asks him to watch over Dexter while he attends to business outside of Gotham City. In Britain, Wonder Woman is a prisoner of the Atlanteans. After Wonder Woman attacks one of her guards, Batman arrives, dispatches them and then asks Wonder Woman for her Magic Lasso in exchange for the lives of her and her people. Wonder Woman gives in to the deal, and Batman uses it on Aquaman to get the answers on Allen and Dent's deaths. Aquaman says he did not send the assassin, as Oswald contacts Batman stating that somebody bombed their casino. As Aquaman prepares to use his trident to sink Britain, he is killed by Wonder Woman. Thomas returns home to find Oswald teaching Dexter how to wield a gun. Back on Prime Earth, Corky Baxter says it is not too late to undo this.

Thomas Wayne ponders three murders that occurred while he was in Britain, as the media dubs them the Clockwork Killer. When Oswald says Dexter has been asking him about explosives, Thomas advises Oswald to do just that. At the ruins of Wayne Casinos, Thomas is told by Commissioner Gigante that a clue hasn't been found yet. She does tell Thomas about an Arkham Asylum inmate named Psycho-Pirate who says that he came to 'hyper-time' to escape a "Dark Crisis" while ranting that Bruce Wayne is supposed to be Batman. Thomas goes to Arkham Asylum to confront Psycho-Pirate only to find him hanged in his cell. After seeing the writing on the wall, Batman walks down the hall when he gets the attention of Gilda Dent asking why he took her son noting that Batman is Thomas Wayne. Interrogating Gilda about Psycho-Pirate's death, Gilda claims she didn't see the culprit before claiming that Thomas drove Martha mad the day when Bruce was killed. When Gilda starts to ramble that Thomas was a bad father, Batman punches the glass window of her cell, disfiguring the left side of her face. Later, Thomas dispatches some muggers, before being confronted by Super-Man. Back on Prime Earth, Corky Baxter notes that Batman stole the snowglobe from Rip Hunter and that the Time Masters took it from someone else first, warning Batman that the owner may come for it.

30 years ago, on the planet Krypton, a rocket carrying a baby Kal-El is shot into space in a space capsule, arriving on Earth and decimating Metropolis. Oswald is teaching Dexter how to work with explosives when they get a glimpse of a Flash-like figure who needs Thomas Wayne. Super-Man states to Batman that he needs help, though Batman rejects the offer, causing Super-Man to knock him out. Meanwhile, Batman wakes up in the presence of Poison Ivy who is working for Super-Man, along with Jason Woodrue/Swamp Thing, to build the Oasis. Batman is shown a message from Jor-El stating that Krypton is dying and that the Kryptonians need a new home before Krypton self-destructs - now planning to invade Earth in five days. Batman rejects Super-Man's plea for an alliance. Meanwhile, Eobard Thawne is dead, with the word Tick written nearby in blood. In Hypertime, two operatives find that a paradox has been reset and suspect Thawne to be responsible.

At Arkham Asylum, Gilda Dent has broken free from her restraints. Batman finds that Thawne has been found dead before performing an autopsy on the corpse. Meanwhile, Dexter finds his way into the Batcave and pulls out a costume from his backpack that he changes into. Thomas arrives home with the clock gears he found in Thawne's corpse and Oswald tells him that Dexter is gone, suspecting he went to visit his mother in Arkham Asylum. Thomas ignores him, stating that he is one step closer to finding the killer, and that the clock gears hold the clue. At Arkham, Dexter makes his way towards Gilda's cell. After putting together the clock, Thomas figures out its final, extra piece and why his grandfather clock has not been working. Dexter meets Gilda's ally, the Joker, who enters from a secret passage. Back on Prime Earth, the snow globe starts to crack, with Corky stating Batman does not know the truth about his mom.

Two days after the Dark Crisis, Batman finds Ra's al Ghul in Wayne Manor wanting to celebrate both their returns. He gives Batman the ashes of the alternate Thomas Wayne who was incinerated by Darkseid's Omega Beams and research from Rorschach's journal claiming that there's still time to save his father. At Arkham, Gilda starts to develop a second personality. Batman arrives to fight Joker while asking why she killed Barry Allen and Eobard Thawne. As Gilda departs with Dexter, Joker states that Psycho Pirate told her everything before killing him. Following her into her lair where she obtained a Time Sphere, Joker reveals her plans to save Bruce's life and make sure they are the ones who die. Back on Earth-Prime, Rip Hunter shows up to confront Batman. When Rip asks Bruce if he knows why he is here, Batman states that he will not let him interfere.
