No. You're wrong. Batman's greatest strength is not his compassion. His greatest strengths are his ability to be prepared for anything, being really good at punching people in the face, and having a lot of supergadgets.

This. Superman is the one whose all about compassion, kindness, general niceness. Batman is compassionate, yes, but mostly he's just brilliant and super prepared (and also really rich).

My favorite Batman stories are when he finds that his strengths of super preparedness and punching people and paranoia and not trusting anyone get in the way of his actual goals of justice and compassion and he has to wrestle with it.

I'd love to see something like this.

Well, he does a fair amount of this in Batman: The Animated Series from the '90s.

I think that if, at the climax of a Batman movie, Batman only talked the villain down, there would legit be an online conflagration. If there was talking and a fight, then it would probably be okay. If I went to see a superhero action film and there was a big 'Come to Jesus' speech instead of an action sequence, I would be thinking it was a fake-out the whole time and be hugely disappointed if it wasn't. Unless the movie wasn't billed as an action movie but more of a character drama, in which case, I probably wouldn't go see it.

My favourite batman stories have always been when he's at his most compassionate (and I say this as someone who dislikes batman). "Epilogue" from Justice League (Ace's death) and "Baby-Doll" from B:TAS immediately come to mind. Definitely some of the best stories from DC hands down, imo.

I mean, this concept (the necessity for compassion and not just single-minded crime fighting) was pretty much the central character arc of The Batman, and I thought it was handled beautifully.

Isn't there a theory that after Joker tells this joke and they both laugh, Batman keeps laughing because he snapped Joker's neck?

Hells yeah compassion.

That's what Grant Morrison thought
