Batman was a massive imbecile when he said he doesn't kill bad people because "then the amount of murderers would stay the same."
Absolute dogshit, dogwater mixed with diarrhea fucking argument. Because of people who think like that with pride, a lot of poor innocent people are dying every day and I get to see it first-hand; middle and upper-class people do not, and they never will because they don't live in the streets as much as we do
They printed a rebuttal to that in one of the punisher comics.
"Kill two"
That always got under my skin a bit too. Like, I get it, due process and all, but if you catch a guy about to bomb the city with some poison gas or something just go ahead and take him out while we can still legally call it self defense.
And on that note: no guns? Well excuse me Bruce but some of us don't have infinite wealth from our dead parents to go gallivanting around the east training with this and that obscure ancient ninja order, some of us are too disabled even if we were financially capable. You telling me that I should just let some henchman dressed like a clown kill me because I'm not rich and able bodied?! I think he just wants job security tbh, the batty bitch.
That said? Favorite comics the big two release, loved TAS, loved Beyond, not big on superheroes but I like him because he's ostensibly human, I like the detective nature to some of the stories, yadda yadda. Not my favorite super hero though, of course that would be The Flaming Carrot. Ut!
