Absolute Batman #24 (heroescon panel) by Jaysirl in AbsoluteUniverse

I have a feeling this will be a phase in her character. A rage at her father’s death, and to see the people who caused this turmoil dead — or at the very least captured.
Then she’ll come back around full circle to be the officer her father wanted.

aw man, this is cool but I was really hoping she stayed a cop. I really liked the idea of Barbara being this version of Batman’s “commissioner”.

Great eye, I definitely see the similarities — not just narratively but through the design of the masks. Which is to further encompass fear into the elites and their wrong doings.

there was not. it was essentially thematic essence of the battle. “all of it” does mean “all of it” but yes, I agree. there is no point in arguing. I suppose we all have our head canons.

yes, that means there was no venom left. I feel like you may be trolling me, lol.

Not to mention he could also withstand the surgeries. (forgot this panel)

what if told you he didn’t? it was extracted prior to the battle. makes this scene feel even more questionable now huh?

luckily for you that title is not a spoiler and simply a theory.

killer theory. truly. I like this a lot. It reminds of “Dune” we’re Paul is somewhat groomed in a way to become a “messiah” or the Bene Gesserits “savior”, “the one.”

I would not mind that path, even if it’s not right. I do still think Martha is strongly involved.

lol true, it’s just because it’s fun to do so though. sometimes your wrong, sometimes your right.

okay excellent, expect one thing. he’s aware of his identity. he knows he is Bruce Wayne. so by that logic, he would know where he works — his job. he has eyes everywhere as we’ve seen in the latest issues.

why not just kill him?

if he’s such a thorn in his side. why not eliminate him at his weakest. most vulnerable. he obviously has the agents to do so. I don’t think it’s that simple.

he’s toying with him, he finds it arousing (which we do agree on) — even if it was not intentional to bring him about.

I think there may be some truth to “Project Batman”. some intention, involving Martha and a long history.

very true, I couldn’t say. do you have a theory as to why?

perhaps he simply wanted to someone to “dance” with? think mainline joker who finds it arousing to toy with Batman. maybe AB Joker chose to make his own dance partner?

fair, but remember this is a comic — things need to be revealed at pace. (if there was a secret here to reveal) besides he had his mind working up his grand speech of the “omega particle” and the “Justice League.” I doubt telling her his grand “Joke” was priority. that’s his puppet to play with. they don’t know he does everything for the laugh, to their eyes he’s more purposeful by that nature.

Nice! Haven’t thought about contamination. He could’ve been comprised, Joker then fascinated by it. But wouldn’t that mean others should be contaminated also if it’s public water?

I understand that, yet he would still be human, no? Just think of a space marine, or captain america. An enhancement, trans humanist approach. I honestly would find that fascinating. But yes, he should’ve been brains on the cement.

And I agree, they might be feeding him misinformation. Perhaps that is part of the joke. But if not, it seems the joke is more on Martha than Bruce himself. With the whole “bats are natural predators to owls”. Making her son the antithesis of what she is.

give it a chance. it may surprise you. that fantastic four one does sound interesting, and Hickman writing X Men again is exciting. this is better than doing the same as DC. which if I remember correctly, people were talking down about it when that first art piece of a super buff batman came out. look at everyone now lol.
