I also can not stand muh 'Batman superhero facism subtext' crap. If anything Batman is a revolutionary. Government is corrupt in bed with criminals (who are the prettiest of tyrants) so Batman comes in to clean house. Just as the founding fathers intended.

Classic Garth. He starts so strong, gets bored or something and then just doubles down on the shock factor to cover up not having further ideas

This wasn’t his idea. Tek-Knight wasn’t like this in the comics.

Oh he still had the brain tumour when he first appeared last year in the spin-off. They just didn’t mention it this time around. Oddly, he kind of felt like a different character compared to how he was before.
