Notification! Spoilers for Batman/Catwoman: Gotham War – Scorched Earth #1!A few words from By Night put Batman Family on a more positive note than Batman: I’ve Done That. “Gotham War” comes to an end and the Dark Knight reflects on the damage he has caused to his family. But the wisdom of his oldest ally gives Bruce and his readers a more optimistic view of Gotham’s famous heroes.
In Batman/Catwoman: Gotham War – Scorched Earth #1 By Chip Zdarsky, Tini Howard, Mike Hawthorne and Nikola Čižmešija, Batman and Nightwing have a long-awaited conversation about Bruce’s recent behavior. Concerned that Zur-En-Arrh is still infecting Bruce’s mind, Dick begs his mentor to seek help.
“/> Batman refuses, but apologizes to Nightwing for leading him and the rest of the Bat-Family down the dark path he did. However, Dick tells Batman that he is wrong and that neither he nor the rest of the team are his soldiers, just people trying to do the right thing.
Nightwing challenges the idea that Batman’s allies are soldiers
“/> To reduce crime in Gotham, Catwoman organized a new operation that retrained henchmen and low-level criminals to become thieves like her. Although this resulted in a 75% reduction in street crime, it made Batman very angry, especially when his family sided with Selina. Bruce decided to put an end to Catwoman’s operation and arrested the criminals much more aggressively than before. The Bat-Family tried to stop Batman, but Bruce fought back mightily. Unfortunately for the Bat-Family, Batman was encouraged to become even more isolated and violent thanks to his unbalanced alternate personality, the Batman of Zur-En-Arrh.
Batman’s attempt to protect Gotham is often depicted as a war, with the Bat-Family serving as the Dark Knight’s foot soldiers. It’s a dark way of looking at things, and it seems like Bruce really feels like he’s ruined his family by involving them in his mission and keeping them from finding happiness. But Nightwing claims that he and Barbara They are happy and who never saw his heroic work as a war. This difference in perspective reveals a lot about Batman and Nightwing. Bruce can never find a happy ending because he is chasing something impossible. But Dick and others found the happiness that so eluded their leader because they understood the importance of realistic goals.
Batman will never be happy until he changes his mood
“/> Batman sees his mission as a war because he is trying to stop the idea of crime. It is an interesting and noble vision, but ultimately an unattainable goal. Nightwing and the rest of his allies have a much more informed perspective on their work. They may not hope to defeat crime in all its forms, but they know they can make things better. This realistic perspective on their heroics gives Dick, Barbara, and Gotham’s other heroes the freedom they need to find fulfillment in other aspects of their lives. But as long as Batman imagines himself fighting a war, he will never find the happiness of a “soldier.” At night they found it.
