Crowetron posted:If Bruce can't predict that the answer to "where is the Flash while he's fighting me" is always "up in my poo poo, infinity punching me", he's not really the World's Greatest Detective, is he? I'm surprised the Batman fanboys aren't trying to say that Batman let Barry think he could punch him because Batman is prepared for everything. On the other hand, I want a decade of super heroes dunking on Batman because I'm sick of Batman always wins.

Batman gets dunked on a *lot.* "Batman always wins" was a cliche a decade ago and a good chunk of writers have made it their goal to 'disprove' that so Batman gets trivially punked by anyone with superpowers any time the writer wants to 'prove Batman isn't so great." Is far from the first time The Flash has done it too.  At this point I think more people dunk on Batman regularly than Batman beats via bullshit.

The pop-culture gestalt is not greatly influenced by the books themselves unless they're total breakout hits or become movies. So you might as well write the best story you can and at most crack a side joke or two rather than being like "nuh UH, Aquaman RULES!"

The constantly-abrasive untrusting Batgod image is still by far the most pervasive one among comic fandom and online meme factories. It doesn't help that noted whistling buttholes Frank Miller and Frank Cho, among other comic creators, evidently subscribe to that reading of the character as the only canon one.

Man Without Fear #3: So Ben Urich is being hunted by a guy calling himself Foolkiller. Since Urich is his buddy, Daredevil has enlisted the Netflix Defenders to help him guard Urich. Luke and Jessica, stationed outside the door, get knocked out by sleeping gas.

Is Foolkiller a recurring Daredevil villain I didn't know about? 'Two in the ground, one in the mental ward'

There have been 3, though checking wikipedia, only one's dead. It should be noted that one of them most recently actually got a job as a psychiatrist working for SHIELD after a brief stint working for Deadpool in a miniseries of his very own, but he was indeed in a mental ward and this story takes place in the past. So I guess either someone needs to update a wiki page or Jed Mackay retconned the last one into the dirt.

Going back to that Batman/Flash comic, gently caress Batman in that. Really? He's gonna give him poo poo over letting one of his dudes out of his sight long enough to kill someone? How often has Joker gotten loose and started loving with people outside Batman's jurisdiction?

The dude is faster than Superman. The math is kind of different.

There's also the Flash's history of having a semi-cordial relationship with the Rogues, which Batman almost certainly does not approve of at all.

Daredevil could also just be wrong. Like, what is he, the Handbook to the Marvel Universe? You expect every hero to keep up on the intricacies of which Foolkiller is which, they'll never have time to stop muggings. (Those panels rule. Really beautiful and fun.)

Only thing is, depending on if you read Jessica's speech bubble as her being awake enough to be talking to Danny or not, it can come off pretty  .

In the second panel, did Danny just jump off a five story building? Because unless he punched the ground when he landed that should have ended badly.

Another reason I'm pissed about what they did to Tim Drake in New 52. After this Bruce adopted Tim Drake. Dick was only his ward, in the eyes of the law Tim was his son.
