#and others would write whole ass essays about why Abusive Bruce was a reach and it was only a few “bad days”

My view of Batman as a character has been so fundamentally changed because of how HORRIBLE he's been written. And it's fucking sad cuz I genuinely loved batman & Robin when I was a kid. As someone who has been abused by my own father it hurts so much to see his character waste away.

Isn't he meant to encapsulate justice? Isn't he meant to be the one you could lean on and trust to comfort children in their time of need?? Cuz that's not what I'm fucking seeing lately.

Sure people change but he's changing for the worse. It would be an interesting storyline to follow but I know DC would either say it's not Bruce's fault, make it somehow Jason's fault, or when someone tries to stand up to Bruce their would be a "calm down" or "Be the bigger person" bit.

UG AND WHY DOES IT HAVE TO BE JASON?? THE BOY WHO HAS A HISTORY OF ABUSE?? (Or atleast alluded to have being abused)

And this doesn't even touch on what he fucking did to Dick last time, forcing him to fake his death and when he didn't want to he beat him.

How the FUCK can you write batman in this way?? I'm just at a loss for words.

WFA is the nicest thing to read when the rest of DC comics are bogged down by Bruce being a POS. Thank goodness it exists...

I know WFA is too OOC for some people, but I need that shit right now.

I do love seeing the Batfam beating the shit out of each other. I like how messy their relationships are and I have always loved flawed characters.

But idk, man, Batman #138 just really crossed a line for me and I need a reminder that there are other depictions of Bruce that aren't so fucking heinous.

I'll take this shit:

Over this shit:

Any. Fucking. Day.
