Lol they want to make Batman unbeatable so bad and I hate that. The charm of the character is that he?s a man who is in over his head but still goes up against monsters and gods cause he?s insane
The problem with Batman is that you have two versions. The Bat-Themed Iron Man, and the Ninja Sherlock Holmes. The problem is that when your MC is a Supergenius Billionaire Warrior, and yet you're still writing stories about him hunting down serial killers in not!Jersey, after near a century, what is the ******* point anymore? And honestly, I cannot take the childish view of morality anymore. Turn him into a children's character having adventures with silly loonies, fine by me. But when you have the Joker turn living people into a flesh tapestry (Snyder's Death Of The Family) yet Batman still won't ****ing kill the ****ing clow for ****'s sake, then I'm just done. I've lost any interest in Batman and have some attachment due to memories/the idea. I'll get my BaleBat, Ledger Joker, maybe an Arkham fig or two, and I'll watch the Pattinson film because I like Pattinson, but Batman the comic book character I hate him at this point.
Batman was never meant to 'crossover' into a DC universe. He was meant to fight exotic villains in Gotham City, that's it.
Having him team up with Superman is simply ridiculous. If there is a Superman, why do you even need Batman? Wouldn't the reality be that Superman would clean up Gotham before Batman could even get his Batsignal message? Every time Batman arrived at the scene of the crime, Superman would already be there with a hog-tied villain, give a little salute to Batman and fly off into the night. Batman would be an unnecessary joke. A cosplayer.
90% of characters shouldn't interact with one another, but that's comics for you. "Muh shared universe" makes geeks creams their pants and they can charge them extra when their favourite strongman crossovers with a strongman they don't like, but they "gotta have muh strongman". It's all silly, it's all worthless and nothing makes sense if you think about it for more than 10 seconds. Batman's there because he sells. Wolverine was everywhere because he sold. Nobody kills their enemies because they sell. It's all just a big joke.
How am I supposed to get invested in a World Ending Story when there've been 5 of them that year, there are about 5 clones of the same Warlord, and Dr. Strange could snap his fingers and solve it? How can I take seriously a universe when every other book has different rules and ways society works? For ****'s sake, Reed Richards hasn't created mass-produced infinite storage USBs because Sony paid him a billion. Yes, that's the actual reason, it's from Waid's run. How the Hell do I then read the story about his Reality Warping Son saving the Omni-Verse from the Nega-Lord Of The Reverse Dimension? In the same place where ******* Spider-Man has trouble catching Bunnyman, who was brutally killed by Moon Knight after he found his ****-Dungeon last year? It's too ******* stupid...
Always found it weird how Superman fights crime all over the world but when a clown does a terrorist attack using laughing gas in a densely populated city, he just shrugs it off and lets the human with the bat costume handle it on his own . Lol comics
Then expand that to Hub City, Coast City, Whatever City... As time goes on I hate capes more and more, tbh...
