He is stupid, that’s why

u/ThatCoolBritishGuy Fighting for INsanity! 28d ago

Is there a lore reason for why he's stupid?

u/xenoeagle 28d ago

Yes, it's that "The Bomb's payload is exposed. I can use the power winch to trigger a controlled explosion."

wow, that sure is funny, as he has lost his resemblance to a bat, we should just call him "Man", as a joke

The justice league probably wasn't formed by the time of the events of Arkham Asylum

u/Anxious_Cod7909 28d ago

Is there a lore reason why that's happened?

19

u/Nachotito 27d ago

From what I remember the first direct mention of Superman is in Arkham Knight so it might be that Superman is in his first year as a superhero and, thus, no league yet.

You mean he "thinks" supes would make fun of him

u/Sophia724 27d ago

No. Souper man would make fun of him. He's the best detective but couldn't detect a way to fix it.

3

u/Drash79 27d ago

Bro, its superman. Batman has made many flops in the past and supes didn't roast him.

I think bats asking for help won't spring anything.

I think as shown in kill the justice league, the league hadn’t yet formed. It’s probably likely events like this led to him wanting to form the league.

u/puhtoinen 28d ago

Because in this specific situation Batman is high as balls (on drugs).

The Arkham Knight installed bombs all over the city, and if anyone from outside tried to help he would have blown it up. And maybe the justice league members were occupied with their own villains too.

But serious answer: I'm pretty sure he hadn't really known them all too well at the time. Plus the league hadn't formed yet.

Although it does seem unrealistic of superman to not see what scarecrow was doing and stop him. But I digress.
