In the heart of Gotham, the city sprawled beneath a thick, smoky haze, a perfect backdrop for intrigue and reinvention. Bruce Wayne sat in his office, the iconic Wayne Enterprises tower looming high above the city streets. His eyes, shadowed with the burdens of the night before, were fixed on the peculiar contract before him. Marlboro, the notorious cigarette brand, was seeking a new face—a modern Marlboro Man. Alfred Pennyworth, his trusted confidant, entered the room with a knowing look. "Master Wayne, are you certain about this venture? The corporate world can be as treacherous as Gotham's underbelly." "I am aware Alfred," Bruce replied, his tone a mix of determination and doubt. "But Marlboro is calling for me and I must embrace the new changes in me and become the new face for Marlboro."
The next day, Bruce Wayne found himself amidst the polished confines of a Marlboro corporate boardroom. The room was a stark contrast to the gritty streets of Gotham, with its sleek, modern design and air of expensive cologne. Executives sat around a long glass table, their eyes fixed on Bruce. Roberto Kline , a sharp-tongued marketing executive, eyed him with skepticism. "So, Mr. Wayne, are you prepared for becoming Marlboro Man?" "Of course Roberto," Bruce replied confidently. "We need to show the youth and the adults out there the joy and wonders of smoking and I'm here to be the mascot to do that." Roberto Kline smiled as he shakes hands with Bruce Wayne. "Here's to Marlboro success."
Later that evening, Bruce stood in front of a camera posing with Marlboro smokes and Marlboro themed furniture and clothing with the Marlboro logo on front. Bruce Wayne face was on all the billboards with Marlboro success going straight up. Roberto Kline and Bruce Wayne were enjoying their time together in Bruce Wayne home smoking Marlboro brand cigars. "You'll fitting in perfectly Marlboro Man." Roberto Kline joked calling Bruce Wayne by his new name. Bruce Wayne laughed along. "That's my name from now on." Bruce Wayne says embracing his new identity.
The following week, Bruce visited rallies and events as Marlboro Man. The crowd were cheering and loving the new Mascot of Marlboro as Marlboro kept raking in the money. Marcus, an adult man with a keen sense for leadership, approached him. "Hey, Marlboro Man! I'm your biggest fan! I hope I can be like you one day?" "You can!," Bruce replied, a smile playing on his lips. "Marlboro is offering jobs for any guy to be willing to join the Marlboro family and you too can be just like me." "Wow!" Marcus exclaimed as he and a couple of his gym buddies all smoking Marlboro rush out to join the Marlboro family.
As night fell, Bruce found himself in an unexpected meeting with Roberto Kline in the lounge the two have spent time together as newfound friends. " Bruce Wayne, you are a natural my man. We just got thousands of new people applying wanting to be apart of the Marlboro family." Roberto Kline admitted, a hint of admiration in her voice. "This is our life now Roberto," Bruce insisted. "Marlboro is going to expand to new heights and we're going to be the centerpieces ready to make it happen." The two could only laugh in their successes as they smoke the night away.
As dawn broke over Gotham, Bruce stood with Marcus who was accepted to become the second Marlboro Man with Bruce Wayne . The duo was ready for the future to help spread Marlboro influence worldwide. In his heart, he knew the path he'd chosen was a path worth taking. "This is just the beginning," Bruce whispered to Marcus ear making him shiver with excitment. Roberto Kline came in afterward with a Marlboro cigar for each of them. "To Marlboro." Roberto Kline exclaimed with success. "To Marlboro!" Bruce Wayne and Marcus exclaimed back to Roberto Kline. They can't wait to get back to work as the Marlboro Mans.
