How did the machinations of "Wiley Dalbert" change Batman-related
history,
I think it had something to do with his time machine working, and so
he was able to hand a check to Thomas Wayne in the past, which caused
him to not take Bruce to the movies.
and what was changed, exactly?
Thomas and Martha Wayne not shot by Joe Chill, Bruce doesn't swear to
avenge them and wage war on crime. No Batman.
And for what reason is (or
was) Booster going to dress up as Batman at some point in history
going to help in any way?
Sorry, Rip didn't drop off this month's issue yet.
And didn't Rip say that it was impossible to
change the past unless something special was done?
I think the idea, so far, has been something like it's impossible to
make History better, or that somehow only villains can fool with the
time stream, and even then not lastingly. So while Per Degaton can
prevent the JSA from being born, and then somehow everything's okay
again anyway, Superman learns Krypton exploded because he went back in
time and tried to stop it.
More like that there are certain events around which time has "hardened"
(for reasons which haven't quite been explained), meaning they can't be
altered without creating massive damage to reality (the Beetle arc) or to
the time traveler seeking to change them (the Killing Joke issue).
Everything else is up for grabs (Booster's sister, Guy Gardner, et al).
