Batman comics today hurt my soul. So ...So much. Look I'm not gonna sugar coat it. I grew up admiring and loving Batman. I grew up admiring just who he was. I watched the Nolan Movies for Batman and adored them. I loved the animated series. I loved Arkham Batman.
And as I read more comics it hurts my soul when writers in DC absolutely fuck up what the No-Kill Rule means to Batman and go onto show absolutely dumbfuck shit like Batman saving Joker from being killed when he has already admitted multiple times that he'd kill the Joker but doesn't do it because he refuses to prove the Joker right.
I think it's established Batman is clinically insane and to all those who says "The No-Kill Rule" is dumb. I disagree hands down. I disagree with the modern dumb interpretation. What I agree with is redemption. A lot of his rogue gallery is from those who've come from hardcore trauma like Clayface and have reasons(except Joker) why they are the way they are. He believes that these people didn't deserve what caused their trauma and he believes in redemption and that in my eyes DEFINES Batman as the hero he is.
This is only solidified when I see the Justice League Unlimited and Batman and Ace's last moment. She was hurt, abused, and had all the reason to hate everything. Yet despite have sided with Joker, Batman sat right there with a child and when she looked at him asking "Can you stay with me? I'm scared..." he sat with there till she passed away. AND THAT RIGHT THERE IS WHAT BATMAN IS. And what modern comics ABSOLUTELY SHIT ON.
They try too hard to be edgy while forgetting what Batman truly is. I hate it. I just wish Joker is ended off by this point so Batman goes back to being the Neo Noir Gothic Detective Hero he is.

@dragonNecroKing132 that scene with Ace is what PEAK BATMAN is bro. Legitimately cried the first time I watched.

@THUNDERsnek That is a really good one. I was gonna pick the Arkham Batman, but now that you mentioned the JL animated one, I have to go with that as well
