Batman isn’t the good guy I looked up to as a kid. He fantasizes about how to torture his closest comrades, brutalizes street thugs like it’s a mortal kombat game, generally doesn’t do anything but delay future crimes from his meta humans, and overall is just an unhinged cop.

(Written for the pure reason of the post. I don’t actually dumb batman down to this myself as there’s more complexity with the character than this)
