>>114464770I love the theory of Batman, I just wish comics would write him like he's supposed to be according to what they always TELL us he is but never really demonstrate it.
>He's smartWhen was the last time he behaved like it instead of lazy asspulls by writers?
>Creates fear in criminalsNOBODY in Gotham is scared of him, he's more of a nuisance than a threat to the gangster types.
>DetectiveI've read Encyclopedia Brown stories more forensically compelling, not that every story needs to be a mystery but Bruce punches a lot and thinks little.
>FighterFor a guy who is supposed to fight in the shadows using his own pragmatic hybrid of every martial art in the planet his tactics and fight scenes are extremely dull.
>GothamFor a major metro city that's supposed to be a gothic nightmare of sprawl it seems to be about the same size as Mayberry NC, there is only one police precinct and the FBI, US Marshall service, coast guard, harbor patrol don't exist.
>RoguesWhat CREDIBLE rogues besides Joker, Penguin & Ras are left? The others have either face-turned or been reduced to meta-punching bags for being too comic book-y
>RobinsI can appreciate that everybody has their favorite, I just wish DC would pick one.
