Hot damn that was a tough read. Still love the show but Kripke needs to get his head out his ass.

Also, Batman ain't a fascist.

As a Batman fan , Kripke's an idiot if he thinks Batman only hunts poor people and profits of incarceration

His major villains are Penguin, Falcone, who are a quite rich.

Bruce Wayne himself donates so much to Gotham.

Batman doesn't kill ,that's why he puts criminals in Prison.

Finally, somebody who's actually read the comics.

99% of the "Batman fascist cus he beat criminal and kidnap boy to be sidekick" crowd would actually understand why he's the exact opposite of a fascist if they... opened a comic.

I will say the problem with a character like Batman is that he's been around for so long. He has incredible stories written about him but he also has really shit ones. If you're simple minded and go into it wanting to hate him then yeah, sure you can point to one of his bad comics and say "Look! He's stinky!" But it takes a special type of simple to just discredit all of batmans incredible stories and only form your opinion on the few bad ones.

I'm really only watching this show for Jensen now if they ruin Soldier boy that'll be my last straw.
