Comment on If Batman were real today, he'd go after the CEOs of companies, not gangsters.
TheReturnOfPEB@reddthat.com 4 days agoWell he did have his parents murdered in front of him as a child.
That shit twists people.
Yeah but he never actually went after the original murder if you notice. He spent his entire time going after lunatics who thought that they were going to take over the city because they had planted a bomb on a bridge or something.
At least Spider-Man actually got vengeance.
Depends on the story.
And that “vengeance” is what taught him that vengeance is dumb, and it’s better to fight to better the world around him than go after people Punisher style.

i mean yeah, I’d totally support this angle but DC usually uses him as the moral compass of the entire universe while making Superman go nuts instead.
