I think this is wrong, and that's why I don't like Batman. I enjoy him as a character, but as a human being he's the worst. Putting his unlimited resources into beating up street criminals is so lame!
I love superheroes in general, but when you think about it, it's basically a right-wing fantasy.
Feb 4, 2026 21:20I addressed this in my novel (available at bookstores nowhere, call your favorite literary agent and tell them to represent me). The main character is a woman with superpowers who isn't sure what, if anything, to do with them. But she knows going out into the streets to punch criminals is dumb.
