I like vulnerable Batman. It makes him interesting.
 
I love when media (namely TAS) emphasises things like Batman’s kindness and compassion towards people. It’s so nice to see.

@thevideonasty  
that’s why it’s heartbreaking to see him dismiss freeze’s attempt of atoning in beyond as “blood money”.
 
either bruce has become cynical or he lost all faith in freeze after still being a villain when his freudian excuse is gone.

@OptimusPrimevil  
I’ll be honest, i’ve not seen that (i’m guessing it’s the Sub Zero film?). Sounds heartbreaking though.

I slipped on the stairs and fell on my butt ;w;

@thevideonasty  
batman beyond actually.
 
episode was about freeze getting a new body (after spending sometime as a dismembered head) and the scene in question was him setting up a foundation in nora’s name to atone for all the crimes he did after she died.
 
bruce dismissed it as “blood money”.
 
freeze was probably right when he mentioned batman/terry was the only one who cares if he lives or dies by the end of the episode (they never revealed bruce’s reaction to his death).

@OptimusPrimevil  
Oh ok!
 
Not watched Batman Beyond, honestly.

@thevideonasty  
nah bro. haven’t you seen batman v. superman? batman should just kill everybody without mercy otherwise his a wuss!  
/s

@angrybrony  
But . . . but . . . IT’S EDGY!
 
And with that comment, we are THIS close to setting off a DC movie argument in the forum.

@thevideonasty  
those are the best.

@OptimusPrimevil  
Martha?
 
WHY DID YOU SAY THAT NAME????

Now I do plan on buying at least a few of the comics when I have money, but does anyone know a place online where I could get the comics to read or download for the Clark Kent and Superman which involves his son/family? The “family man” Superman that a few pages have been posted here and discussed.

pretty much joel schumacher won’t be forgiven for what he did to batman no matter how much he would apologize for it.
 
but how come no one’s complaining about the guy who wrote batman pissing his pants? or they’re more open to ignore that but keep schumacher as a tackle dummy.

@gingerninja666  
Yeah, people who like to pass him and Stark off as the everyman’s heroes are idiots,

@Thanotos Omega  
the rich white dudes are the everyman heroes?!!

@OptimusPrimevil  
According to nerdom, i know it’s shocking that the same group who lost all sympathy for Rue when they cast a black actor to play a black kid may have some skewed ideals about what is and is not an everyman,

@Thanotos Omega  
whose rue?

@angrybrony  
Rue from the hunger games,  
 
allot of fans were pissed that they had a black actress playing a black character because they had deluded themselves into thinking she must be white, kinda like people who were mad about Cho from Harry Potter being played by a Chinese actress,

@Thanotos Omega  
I have never read the Hunger Games books, but I am more then a little surprised involving Cho Chang given her name is very clearly Chinese.
 
Now if we are talking about Hermione Granger that is a different story.

Possible spoilers for Guardians of the Galaxy 2?
 

 
Blue space husband does his space son a comfort.

@thevideonasty  
is he a better husbando then rick?

@angrybrony  
At the moment, yes. I have a lot of husbandos though, it changes a lot.

I wonder what’s it’s like being a mother to a superhero?

@Background Pony #6799  
wasn’t that one of the plot points of invincible?
 
or you can ask name redacted kent.

so people are mad when deathstroke use batman tactics against the JUSTICE LEAGUE
 
but no one talks about this?!!  
 
this is the first time i’ve heard of this. you’d think people would use this often.
