You don’t have to say anything. Always remember that. Many’s the person missed the opportunity to say nothing and lost much because of it.

Canon blood types: Gotham edition
Note that the following information is not medically accurate and should not be taken as any kind of medical advice. Copious amounts of comic book medicine and biology abound here.
Bruce Wayne may (or may not) have O- blood, the universal donor type. —Batman 2016 Annual #3
Bruce is a compatible blood donor for Andrew Bennett. —The Brave and the Bold #195
Dick Grayson is a compatible blood donor for Bruce Wayne. (If Bruce has O- blood, then Dick must also have O- blood.)—Batman/Nightwing: Bloodborne
In the DC Animated Universe, Dick has O+ blood. —Batman & Mr. Freeze: SubZero
Jason Todd has O- blood. —Detective Comics #1032
In the DC Animated Universe, Barbara Gordon has AB- blood. She has the same rare blood type as Nora Fries, wife of Mr. Freeze. —Batman & Mr. Freeze: SubZero
Crystal Brown is a compatible blood donor for Stephanie Brown. —Batgirl (2009) #24
The Joker is a compatible blood donor for Alfred Pennyworth. —The Brave and the Bold (1955) #141
Helena Bertinelli has a rare blood type, the same as Guido Bertinelli. —The Huntress (1989) #6
Kirk Langstrom and Francine Langstrom have the same blood type. —Detective Comics #429
Bruce Wayne
Batman (2016) Annual #3 suggests that Bruce could have type O- blood.
Tumblr media
Batman (2016) Annual #3, written by Tom Taylor - Batman is seriously wounded in the field. Alfred performs a blood transfusion with a supply of type O- blood.
Type O- blood can be donated to patients with any blood type. Batman might be keeping a supply of O- blood not for himself specifically, but for anyone in need of an emergency blood transfusion. So maybe we can't conclude that Bruce must have O- blood.
Tumblr media
The Brave and the Bold (1955) #195, written by Mike W. Barr - Batman donates blood to his friend, a heroic vampire named Andrew Bennett, who shielded him from a silver bullet.
Dick Grayson
In Batman/Nightwing: Bloodborne, we learn that Dick Grayson can donate blood to Bruce Wayne.
Tumblr media
Batman/Nightwing: Bloodborne, written by Kelley Puckett - Batman is infected with a deadly virus and then taken captive. To save him, Nightwing takes an dangerous experimental vaccine that prompts his body to produce virus-fighting antibodies. Hours later, after Nightwing finds Batman, Nightwing undergoes a "complete blood transfusion" to deliver his antibody-rich blood into Batman's body, while Nightwing receives Batman's virus-laden blood.
If we assume that Bruce has O- blood, then he can only receive transfusions from O- blood, and thus Dick must also have O- blood.
In Batman & Mr. Freeze: SubZero (part of the DC Animated Universe), Dick has O+ blood. O+ is the world's most common blood type; about 40% of the population has O+ blood. O+ blood can be donated to people with any "+" blood type (including A+, B+, AB+, and O+)—about 85% of the total population. O+ patients can only receive blood transfusions from O+ and O- donors.
Jason Todd
In Detective Comics #1032, Hush states that Jason Todd has O- blood.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Detective Comics #1032, written by Peter J Tomasi - Hush captures several Batfamily members, and attempts to steal and sell their organs as revenge against Bruce. Hush begins with Red Hood, and confirms that Jason has type O- blood.
Type O- blood is the universal donor type. This kind of blood can be donated to patients with any blood type. (Recall Mad Max: Fury Road.) People with O- blood can only receive blood transfusions from other O- donors. About 6.6% of people in the USA have O- blood.
Barbara Gordon
This canon is valid for the DC Animated Universe. Barbara may or may not have a different blood type in the comics.
Tumblr media
Batman & Mr. Freeze: SubZero - Barbara Gordon is listed as having AB- blood in Gotham General Hospital's database of blood donors. She is also a compatible organ donor (HLA match) for Nora Fries; and so Mr. Freeze kidnaps Barbara in hopes of performing a life-saving heart transplant for Nora.
For the sake of the plot, Nora needs a transplant from an organ donor with her same rare blood type. In real life, an AB- patient could receive organs from a donor with AB-, A-, B-, or O- blood, as long as the HLA typing matches (read more about that here).
Type AB- blood is the rarest ABO/Rh blood type worldwide; only 0.6% of people have this blood type in the USA. People with AB- blood can receive any Rh negative blood (including A-, B-, AB-, and O-); about 15% of the population has Rh negative blood that can be donated to AB- patients. People with AB- blood can only donate red blood cells to people with AB- and AB+ blood—about 4% of the population. However, type AB is especially valuable as the universal blood plasma that can be donated to patients of any blood type—and so people with type AB blood are often urged to consider donating blood plasma.
Stephanie Brown and her mother, Crystal Brown
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Batgirl (2009) #24, written by Bryan Q Miller - Batgirl (Stephanie Brown) is poisoned with Black Mercy spores. She wakes up days later in West Mercy Hospital. Her mother, Crystal Brown, a nurse, donated her blood to help flush the spores from Steph's system.
We know that Crystal can donate to Steph, but we don't know whether Steph would or wouldn't be able to donate to Crystal. Parents and their children don't always share the same blood type. (This also means that Damian doesn't necessarily have the same blood type as Bruce.)
The Joker and Alfred Pennyworth
Tumblr media
The Brave and the Bold (1955) #141, written by Bob Haney - The Joker tricks Alfred Pennyworth into drinking exploding juice. The Joker drinks anti-exploding juice. Batman forces the Joker to donate his anti-exploding clown blood to Alfred.
Helena Bertinelli
Tumblr media
The Huntress (1989) #6, written by Joey Cavalieri - Helena Bertinelli has been captured by villains who wish to open the locked vault of her late father, Guido Bertinelli. The lock can only be opened using a sample of Guido's blood type. This blood type is so rare that the villains could not find any in the local blood bank at that time—and so they decided to capture Helena as their "fresh supply".
In the mid-to-late 1990s, Helena's father's name was retconned to be named Franco Bertinelli. Then Huntress: Cry for Blood revealed that Helena's biological father is not Franco, but instead Helena's mother's lover from the Cassamento crime family. In the end, all our information about Helena's blood type may be invalid and apocryphal.
Helena possibly has AB- blood, the rarest blood type. This is the same blood type that Barbara has in the DC Animated Universe.
The Langstroms
Tumblr media
Detective Comics (1937) #429, written by Frank Robbins - Francine Lee Langstrom has transformed into She-Bat after secondhand exposure to her husband's bat serum and then being bitten by vampire bats in a cave in Nevada. Her husband, Kirk Langstrom (Man-Bat), says his the same blood type is the same as hers, and so he offers to donate his blood to help treat her.

i… Vampire
Lutessa Luthor was the firstborn of Lionel & Lillian Luthor.
Tess, as she preferred to be called, was a girl who grew up when Lionel was fighting to make LuthorCorp a respected and influential company. Often, doors were shut just because the Luthor family was nouveau riche. This extended to social circles.
Whilst attending private schools, Tess was often ostracized by her more “old money” peers. Her other peers were either too intimidated by her or by her bullies.
At home, her father was constantly pressuring her to be more ‘Luthor’, for the sake of her brother whom she was expected to work for & support when he took over.
Her mother, while less demanding, encouraged her daughter to work towards those standards. She went so far as to hire tutors for etiquette.
In addition, Tess often had to step in whenever the family was between nannies and Lillian was too ill to properly care for Tess’s younger siblings.
The only freedom Tess found from both her family and position in life was within the club circles. In this way, despite her educational achievements, Tess became known as a party girl.
It was thanks to that “party girl” image that Tess finally found an “in” with the elite crowd. A crowd consisting of spoiled, bored offspring and highly pressured & stressed heirs. To keep her means of escape, she used her new position within the “in-crowd” to collect information that she provided to her father. Information that he wouldn’t have gotten without extreme effort by his contacts.
In this way, Lionel was able to blackmail, steal bids, take advantage of weaknesses, & other actions that greatly benefited LuthorCorp. Neither he nor Tess cared who got hurt. To them, they were fighting a war where they were the underdogs. The fault lay in their enemies who underestimated them.
Overtime, Tess became more skilled. She was able to get information more subtlety to the point her targets wouldn’t realize it was her who leaked information to her father’s company. This allowed her to remain within others’ good graces. At this point, however, Lionel had become powerful enough to have contacts in higher places. Tess’s freedom was threatened.
Her father then spoke with her about finding a fiancé for her that would be profitable for the family.
Depressed at the thought of her freedom coming to an end, she went to the ill-reputed Ace of Clubs. Whilst she was distracting herself, Tess was confronted by a former peer from school, one whose family was ruined by Lionel. Confronted by her sins, Tess fled from the club into an alley, sickened by her own actions to cater to Lionel. All for a false freedom, one that allowed her to forget how truly caged she was.
Crying and hopeless, Tess didn’t notice the figure slinking towards her. It was only thanks to her self-defense lessons that Tess didn’t die immediately when the figure pounced. One look at her assailant told Tess that the man – thing – wasn’t human. It looked at her with sadistic delight, like a cat not hungry enough to immediately eat the mouse.
Her struggles were short-lived despite how she kept herself in shape. The thin, spindly creature was far stronger than it should have been. Pinned to the wall, Tess could only keep struggling as the creature laughed and bent its head towards her neck.
A gunshot rang in the night.
Stunned, Tess could only watch as her assailant slumped and fell to the ground. Breathing harshly, Tess looked around wildly only to see an older man in a grey trench coat put away a silver pistol in his holster.
“Are you alright?” a thickly accented voice questioned. The sincere concern in his voice was backed by the man’s pale blue eyes.
Tess broke down crying. The man took off his coat and put it around her. He stayed with her and talked with her until a woman came running around the corner closely followed by a man.
Tess almost ran when the man came closer quickly noticing that he was of the same kind as It. Deborah, the woman, managed to reassure her that Andrew wasn’t an animal like her assailant. Whilst Andrew picked up the corpse one-handed, Deborah offered to take her inside to wait for a cab.
Tess refused to let go of her savior’s sleeve.
Dmitri, as he introduced himself, waited with her until her driver returned to the club. In the meantime, he asked her not to say anything so that her assailant’s compatriots wouldn’t find out about the events. The idea that there were more – god forbid – vampires within Metropolis was horrifying to Tess.
When she got home, she was subjected to her father’s scolding and her mother’s fussing. Alone in her room, she found herself uncaring of her now evaporated freedom and more for what danger was prowling in the city. Of the three ‘paladins of justice’ that hunted them. Of kind, gentle Dmitri.
A short time later, Lionel forced Tess to go to a high-class party to show that an attack by some drunk had no impact on a Luthor. Tess went through the motions, no longer finding delight in snaking her way through conversations. That was until she saw him.
Quickly yet stealthily going over, Tess asked to be introduced to the new face.
Dmitri Mishkin was the business lawyer and representative of Lord Bennet, a mysterious yet major stockholder in various businesses around the world. The lord is notoriously hands-off yet generous, donating millions to various charities.
Tess, however, was far more interested in Mr. Mishkin. Getting into a private conversation, she offered her help. When Mr. Mishkin asked why, she informed him that she knew he was trying to find ‘an old friend’ but didn’t know Metropolis circles very well.
She did. She just needs to know what to look for.
Bennet said no. Deborah said yes.
With Tess’s help, what would have taken months happened within a week.
While fighting the nest of vampires, the three hunters got a shock when Tess came in, far better armed than last time. After the last one was taken care of, Tess breathlessly asked if they had a job opening.
A few weeks later, Lillian received a strange letter with her breakfast. A few minutes later, her husband’s furious roar proved the contents of the letter true.
Lutessa Luthor had eloped with Dmitri Mishkin.
Furious at both his daughter’s disobedience, abandonment of her family, and her disadvantageous choice in husband, Lionel publicly disinherited her.
Tess laughed her ass off when she read about it in the society papers while having tea with her husband.
