Batman is one of the funniest superheroes of all time I don't care
"he's a billionaire why is he punching poor mentally ill people bluh bluh" look at me. no amount of money is fixing that fucking city. the ratio of supervillain to normal person is nearly 1:1
also batman DOES try to de-escelate when possible. he does try to talk people down when he can. and hes offered numerous henchmen jobs at wayne enterprises to get them out of the life of crime
