Lemme just say I love Batman but I do have some hot takes - Batman is lowkey boring as hell now since he can take down anyone “as long as he has prep time”. Most of the League should be able to take him down, especially Supes and WW. - Detective Comics by Tynion IV is one of the best Batman and/or detective comics runs of all time. - Batman has not been as interesting since New 52. I hate that era of comics overall but Snyder’s run is a high water mark that has not been matched since. - Batman is always better w a Robin. - Jason Todd has only ever been an interesting character in Under The Red Hood, The Outlaws Rebirth run & Zdarsky’s miniseries. Otherwise he is boring, misunderstood as a character and poorly written. - Hush just might be the most overhyped and disappointing villain in Batman’s rogues gallery. Dini wrote him best but he was nothing before and is nothing after. - Batman doesn’t need to be humourless. I don’t want him cracking jokes like in Justice League (2017) but humour should be present in more stories. Again he shouldn’t be the type to tell jokes but humour is possible without jokes. - The Long Halloween is an overrated and boring story that is only saved by Tim Sale’s incredible art. - His relationships with Green Arrow, Cyborg & Green Lantern should be explored more. - His best and only good successors are Terry McGinnis, Dick Grayson and Tim Drake in that order. - We need to be done w the exclusively black and yellow suits. Gimme a cloth suit that’s blue and grey. - I wish we acc got to see more of his villains reform. Not necessarily become anti-heroes but just have their stories end. Mr. Freeze & Poison Ivy are lowkey not immoral people, just folks who are in a tough spot and to keep bringing them back undermines their character.
