That's when they start the back story of him seeing his parents being killed and we get the "I don't kill" Batman. Before that, he killed the shit out of people. Absolutely.

But, just so you know, that first image was from Batman Odyssey which was Neil Adams coming back to write a short Batman arch and it was, to put it mildly, fucking bizarre. You will see mixed reviews from genius to incomprehensible if you Google it.

Are you conflating progressivism and pacifism? It seems like you are, which is weird. Hekate Jan 2018 #17

It then begs the question: What then is progressive violence? LanternWaste Jan 2018 #37

I find it a bit weird that they would move the setting from World War II to the Great War. Ken Burch Jan 2018 #30

What does "a war with no ambiguity" mean? oberliner Jan 2018 #36

Pretty much. Democracy vs. fascism. Ken Burch Jan 2018 #39

They moved it to avoid the obvious comparision to the Capt America movie which took place in WWII FSogol Jan 2018 #38

How about moving it to the U.S. Civil War, then? Ken Burch Jan 2018 #40

Probably not a conflict that threatened the entire world. Did you even see the movie? FSogol Jan 2018 #41

No. And actually, World War I didn't "threaten the entire world". Ken Burch Jan 2018 #44

It involved much of the world was the point. Even you would have to admit that more countries were FSogol Jan 2018 #46

OK, let me rephrase that Ken Burch Jan 2018 #47

You do realize Superheroes are fictional right? FSogol Jan 2018 #48

Yes. Ken Burch Jan 2018 #49
