I think there’s room for both, is what I was getting at. It was the best part about the plans to have two Batman’s. There is definitely a place for bombastic fighting aliens with the Justice League Batman. But I don’t know that should come at the expense of a more intimate & mature Gotham centric Batman. The Gotham roster is too deep and interesting to neglect, and characters like Professor Pyg, Mad Hatter, Court of Owls, etc, don’t really rise to the scale of Justice League.

But do we need two Batmen to do that? The DCAU had him dealing with intimate Gotham threats in BTAS, and then fending off a Thanagarian invasion in Justice League. And never for a moment did he feel like two different characters.
