I spent the afternoon reading about a half dozen Batman graphic novels. I thought it was an afternoon well spent. I rather enjoy reading Batman comics, the legacy of Batman. Tortured hero stories are always something I'm a sucker for. Instead of becoming the monster who forced his pain on others, Bruce Wayne channels that into a different avenue. Saving lives instead of taking them. Sure, he's a moody bastard but he's still a hero.
I know I may be reading too much into it, but I can't help it. Batman will always be my favourite hero, probably because he isn't "super" at all. Clever and strong, yes. But he has no super powers like, say Superman (whom I consider to be an aloof boyscout.). I know Batman can be violent, but he's never killed anyone, not even Joker!
Wow... something tells me I'm really am reading far too much into this. Night all!!
