by Batman (voiced by Diedrich Bader). In the opening of "The Super-Batman of Planet X!", Batman used the alias to help Will Magnus and the Metal Men go undercover against Kanjar Ro's bounty of Space Pirates. In the episode "Chill of the Night!", Batman uses the name variation Matthew Malone during a trip to the past with the Phantom Stranger to see Thomas Wayne and Martha Wayne. In "The Mask of Matches Malone!", Batman gets amnesia while in his Matches Malone persona and believes himself to actually be a gangster. Matches Malone appears in the live-action Gotham TV series, portrayed by Danny Schoch in his first masked appearance and by Michael Bowen in the second appearance. This version is a philosophical hitman-for-hire who is one of Gotham City's deadliest murderers and was an old partner of Mutants leader Terence "Cupcake" Shaw. He is the masked man in shiny shoes who killed Thomas Wayne and Martha Wayne in front of Bruce Wayne and Selina Kyle (who was watching from the highest part of the fire escape), taking Joe Chill's place in the comics and most adaptations. He got his nickname after lighting a man on fire. This has led Detective James Gordon into finding him to bring to justice. Silver St. Cloud revealed the killer's identity to be Patrick. When Bruce finally confronts Patrick, Patrick stated that he was tired of doing bad things, while barely recalling if he killed Bruce's parents and Bruce decides not to kill Patrick. Using the gun that Bruce left behind, Patrick committed suicide by the time Gordon caught up with Bruce. Gordon and Harvey Bullock were left wondering who could have hired Malone to kill Thomas and Martha (which was eventually revealed to be Hugo Strange on behalf of the Court of Owls). The Matthew Malone variation appears in Young Justice as Batman's disguise in the episode "Elder Wisdom", where Beast Boy, Static, and Blue Beetle respond to a request for help, where "Matthew" tells them that his daughter Moira was captured by robot monkeys. This version of Matthew has a distinct Irish accent and owns Match Electronics Store. Beast Boy, Blue Beetle and Static then rescue Matthew's "daughter", Moira, who is actually a disguised Miss Martian, from Professor Ivo and his army of MONQIs. This turns out to be an elaborate setup by Batman, Miss Martian, Oracle and Robin to help with the Outsiders'
