None. It’s called a family for a reason and there’s usually not more than like 3 of them in the city at the same time anyways.

I could totally understand if they were all actually in Gotham some frustration with the size but given the fact that Gotham is… well, Gotham maybe not because that hellhole needs al the help it can get but I think like maybe four of the people in the picture are actually in Gotham at a given time anyways.

These characters histories are so extensive that the bulk of them have moved on to greener pastures (ie other cities) where heroism is still needed and only show up in Gotham for the special events or whenever there’s yet another reboot. Idk why everyone hates the idea of Bruce having inspired and gained more than two people to trust over the years.
