Don’t forget Bigger Luke
Don’t forget Bigger Luke
He’s still Batman. He does detective stuff, doesn’t have superpowers, Gotham is appropriately grimdark, etc. Terry doesn’t have to learn that with great power comes great responsibility like Peter does. The only similarity is that he’s a working class wisecracking teenager with a somewhat agility based fighting style. Peter Parker was never a burly hoodlum before he got his powers, and he doesn’t see being a superhero as a way to make up for mistakes he made as a normal. He also didn’t steal his powers. Terry is a much more mature and slightly darker character than Peter at the start of his journey. He’s not an academically minded geek, he’s someone who’s experienced the real world and understands it. He’s got street smarts, he can fight, and he can lie.
I don’t think the writers have made him perfect. His most recent movie, No Way Home, is about Peter trying to use superpowers to help his friends get out of trouble. Which backfires and causes a bunch of problems, and Aunt May dies saying “with great power there must also come great responsibility.” Seems like a pretty on-theme story.

Okay do fucking Spider-Man and tell me how “with great power comes great responsibility” is Objectivist. Rand wanted all the talented people to fuck off and leave the stupid poors to die! Spider-Man’s first arc is realising that his powers shouldn’t be used for self enrichment.
In Batman Beyond, Batman’s nemesis is a CEO. He’s a villain called Blight, who killed Batman’s father.
If I could draw, I’d start the comic Outbursts of Evelyn True. She’s Everett’s granddaughter, and her very first appearance has her beat up grandad for deadnaming her. The comic would cover modern day annoyances in exactly the same way the old one covered the annoyances of that time. It would also be woke AF
I had an upvote on your comment until the last paragraph. But that’s a bad last paragraph.
Batman is a good person and that’s why it’s fiction.
This fact was revealed in Batman Beyond, in which Batman’s nemesis is an evil CEO called Blight.
I would like you to explain how Captain America and Superman are reactionary.
Captain America is an artificial warrior created by a Jewish scientist to fight the Nazis, and Superman is a baby sent away in a basket to be raised by not-dead parents who chose to use his privilege to help people.
Zack Snyder is an Objectivist and that’s why his Superman movies stink. He doesn’t understand the core themes of superheroes, he only understands the spectacle and surface theatrics.
This is why I’m so excited for Batman Azteca. Aztec warrior Batman killing colonisers like the insane conquistadore Two-Face
Also the Penguin
I thought Lucius Fox was the CEO. Bruce Wayne is chair of the board.
Oh n0 and Oh h1
But this is completely compatible with cappie propaganda. The business took a risk and overextended.
If Everett True were still running, there’d be one where he beats someone up for quoting ChatGPT
Yeah!
I think we should just let the for profit prison go bankrupt. Fuck em.
Aren’t capitalist pigs always talking about how they take on all the risk? Then fucking take on some risk, asshole.
and their entire genepool
Hey look it’s The Sins Of The Father
It gets absurd enough when you go back to the original claim
