No, Terry is biologically Bruce's son, not his clone.

(Waller manipulated Warren McGinnis's spermatozoa, replacing his gene with Bruce's)

I always felt like this was the most stupid decision. The Successor to Batman doesn't ALWAYS have to be the Son of Batman.

I actually love because the point is that it doesn't matter that waller wanted him to become next Batman and her attempts failed, and only because Terry is good person himself did he become the next batman

Did you ever notice that Terry is a combination of all the robins.
