@@thenoobreturnz8968 Alfred is former SAS and MI5, a martial arts master nearly at the same level as Bruce himself, _just_ as resourceful as the bat, a licensed surgeon (so he knows exactly where to hit you), and... apparently has slightly superhuman healing? He had his hand chopped off once but was able to get it reattached without any issues _several months later._ Oh, and unlike Batman, Alfred can and WILL use firearms if necessary. Heck, he's former SAS and MI5, he is a living refutation of Batman's whole "if you start killing you can't stop" philosophy. Honestly, Alfred is actually even more of a badass than Bruce. And more of a threat to anyone who dares cross him.
@user-fc7ye1us8f nah man batman would literally kill every criminal, like injustice superman. He'd probably get into politics in his bruce persona and take complete control of gotham, making it into an authoritarian regime or something
The Batman Who Laughs left his Alfred alive. He drove him insane, but he left Alfred as the last human alive on his planet. A mentally insane, Joker version of Batman with no morals was so attached to Alfred that he didn’t kill him, even though his humanity was completely gone.
This Batman is undoubtedly the most tragic in the Dark Multiverse. Seeing Alfred, the man who became his father, being horribly murdered with sadism and cruelty by his enemies completely destroyed his sanity. It was his eclipse
In Dark multiverse he might have had a very bad fate but also become a nightmare at the same time Because he became a very influential and deadly figure for his world
Each of them represents different fears that Batman has. Some are more obvious than others (Batman who laughs- is basically Batman's fear that he finally one day loses battle of wills against the joker and becomes him) while others are bit more difficult to discern (Dawnbreaker is Batman's fear that if he would gain superpowers, he'd lose all self-control).
This situation brings to mind a poignant moment in a comic book where the Penguin confesses to an aging Bruce Wayne that he's always known he's Batman. He never targeted the people Bruce loved because he realized that doing so wouldn't kill Batman; it would strip away Bruce's humanity, leaving only the vigilante behind.
Really that's only works using comic book logic... much of Batmans strength comes from no-one knowing who he is making him hard to target... if you knew he was Bruce, you'd not muck about targeting his loved ones. You'd just target Bruce directly when his guard was down, Thankfully though Comic book villains are surprisingly gentlemanly in that regard and play along seemingly for the fun of it more often than not..
Not gonna lie. Watching Bane beg for mercy like a little girl before paying for what he did to Alfred was REALLY satisfying. In his final moments he proved to be nothing more than a pathetic coward.

Joker was right about one thing: all it would take is one bad day Problem was that he could never find what was important enough for Bruce to hit his breaking point. Bruce could let thousands die to Joker and not break his morals because they weren't important enough for him to truly care, but here we see Alfred as the breaking point It was never about tormenting someone til they break, it's simply find what's truly important to them, and break it. Then they will break
the dark multiverse are a représenation of batman greatest fear. here, it's losing a parental figure again, and not being able to mourn correctly. the batdoom is the fear of being betrayed by is friends (clark being is best friend it work the best) and also is fear of having to use is contagiencies (because yeah, he don't want to use them) and so on and so on. it's not that he don't care about the thousands joker killed, he need to not let them have died in vain by not breaking is vow, because if he let the joker wins, you get the batman who laugh story line... and we all know how it goes for everyone after that. because batman greatest fear, is letting the joker win, he need is moral, he need to be better than what he actually is. he is a symbol, he is batman, he wont become the scared kid in the hallway, and wont scare the kid in the hallway either.
The whole point of that story is that the Joker was wrong. Batman has already had his bad day. The Joker even failed to provoke Gordon by giving him the worst day he could manage. Here he loses out to something he didn't have it in him to fight, but he still doesn't kill anyone until the AI takes him over.
@@davidprince6877 Pretty much, yeah. The whole point to the story of Batman and Joker is that they both went through similar trauma, but had completely opposite reactions to it.

When losing everything, Joker refused to accept it, rejected reality, and decided to point the finger at everyone except himself. Rather than endure the mental torment, he went mad as a coping mechanism. Batman views his job as a curse he cannot escape from, desperately wishing for the day to come in which he isn't needed anymore so he can finally hang up the cowl and live a normal life. He can't even bring himself to take a single night off out of the fear that some kids parents might get murdered in an alleyway because he wasn't there to stop it.

Its not exclusive to the justice league do people forget avengers and new york and then avengers 2 when an entire country was dropped on itself but lets just say its only DC 😮💨
The justice league and their members are responsible for the destruction of the world in a lot of storys and elseworlds, but to say they do it more times than the villains, is just copium lol
This is one of Batman’s greatest fears: Being consumed by guilt. Or at the very least, losing himself if he loses Alfred because of the mission. It’s not like Bruce hasn’t lost people because he’s secretly the one who became the Batman, but what if he can’t handle the unimaginable loss of the man who raised him like a son when he thought his world ended. Batman works in the shadows, but it’s not risk free. Any of his allies, himself included, can get hurt or worse. And with his wealth, knowledge and friends, there are seemingly no limits to how far Bruce would be willing to go to fill that hole or compensate for that painful, consuming grief.
To be fair in Batman Beyond Alfred dies of old age and Bruce is more or less accepting of that he has no choice. But here Bane made that personal and Bruce making himself watch the video over and over didn't help 😅
@@zackdelarosa14There's a big difference between someone dying of old age and being murdered by people actively looking for your surrogate son. Batman is mature enough to accept Alfred growing old and dying as that would mean he lived a fairly good life and went peacefully. Him being personally responsible for his death is a different matter entirely.
@@Capta1nTD boy you must be a detective. Yes no shit that's why he succumbs in elseworld stories they aren't gonna cannonically kill Alfred other than Batman Beyond because of age
You're one of the few good ones. Almost nobody else put the comics on the description of the video. All those "comic book channels" fail to promote the artist and writers. But not you friend. Thank you.
I've gotta say, I REALLY don't liie how often Batman can single handedly take down, bot just the Justice League, but all the other DC Superheros and Villians all at once. It really kills any weight the Justice League's big fights may have, when you know Batman has the ability to do it all himself. I mean, why isn't Batman ever defeated whenever he becomes a villain? So much for the Justice League being his protocol for if he goes bad.
To be fair, the worlds of the Dark Multiverse aren't "real" in the way other DC worlds are, worlds where Batman is powerful but not "solos the universe" tier. The evil Batmen destroyed everyone because these worlds were literally creations of Bruce's imagination, so the heroes and villains were weaker than their "real" counterparts/destined to lose. But it is a valid complaint, I'll give you that. I know Batman is overhyped but I tend to enjoy it as he's my favorite superhero.
@@brandonwilliams4050 I thought Injustice did it best, though I have yet to see a Batman Gone Bad vs. The Justice League that I really enjoy, which isn't just B-man overpowering everyone.
He’s completely OK with the death of millions in the hands of the Joker, but he goes crazy with the death of one old person. DC execs need to sit and discuss seriously about where this character has fallen into.
@@neojenshi4055 What’s the difference? All superhero comic books today, even in the brightest of universes have deaths in every page, heroes that bring more pain than relief, more despair than hope, more grief than joy. You say this happened in the dark universe, but what makes you think it wouldn’t have happened in the main one. All Batmen after Infinite Crisis are crazy.
The crazy part about this, is how Bane was able to find the one thing that would have Batman cross that line, and take it away from him. Something that Joker could never truly do himself. Something that a chemically induced meathead could accomplish, but not the laughing Clown Prince of Crime. (Kind of an ironic punchline in a way)
Bane's not crazy. Like, literally. Bane is one of the few sane people in Batman's rogue gallery. His reliance upon Venom isn't even a addiction, it's just his thing. He shouldn't ever be in Arkham, he's a sane criminal.
@@unusualusername8847 What's with people claiming that half of Batman's rogues' gallery isn't insane, recently? Two days ago I literally saw someone say the Penguin is sane. He isn't, and neither is Bane, far from it.
@@Bane520 Banes not criminally insane in the lore of Batman. At most he's addicted to venom, but he has no actual mental illnesses. Penguins literally a crime boss. Unless you consider his gimmick a mental illness (in which case lock up every supervillain in Arkham) Penguin in most depictions is just a regular crime boss. Black Mask is a crime boss with the gimmick he wears a black mask. Why? Who tf knows. Is he criminally insane for wearing a mask?
In any of these overpowered batman story, you see armors capable of fucking up superman more easily than Lex Luthor with a kryptonite dildo. Where are these armor when Doomsday come by ?
"Batman feels his own fault" Well duh, how many times you put them in prison only for they to broke out make crime and looping the process through infinity lol
@@TheLegacy87 it is his fault if he had one through the trouble of preventing these people from ever hurting someone again or even getting them proper treatment instead of just returning them back to Arkham asylum which has been doing a terrible job at treating patients Alfred would still be alive look what happened when joker killed Jason Todd and then he doesn't even let the poor guy get his play remind you that joker ass killed so many people I can't even count them anymore and every one of them died because Batman let joker live Batman should have at least it's something to prevent joker from ever harming another person again cutting off his limbs is a good example
Fam. That's like saying it's the police fault for catching a mass murderer and putting him on death row, only for other people breaking him out of a maximum security prison so that he can continue murdering again. They did thier jobs. The prison failed at thiers. Get it right.
@@castleford2591 The punisher does not have this problem though. And cops can end someone life in self-defense, but batboy will refuse to end someone even in that situation. Also there's plenty of times the bat saved a villains life when they were about to die. That's crazy.
This has to be a dark universe, because Bruce in all other circumstances would be too selfless to sacrifice others to uplift himself. Without proper closure from Alfred-like him simply passing from old age-he becomes reckless and relentless until the very end and pushes himself over the edge. But even then, he would never break his code. He’d be dancing with death without a care. But the bat family usually brings back his humanity and consoles him to where he’s back to himself. Although, it’s really tragic when either Batman or Alfred dies. They’re the glue of the bat family, father and grandfather.
What can be said, Batman is one of the heroes who's strenght and fit body are an necessity for his job. It just so happens that this artist did quite a nice job a depicking his phisic. Too bad I can't say the same for this picture 1:50. Not because it's badly drawn. But because the desighn and view of it's features screams to me "batman themed iron man knock off suit"
This is proof that there's always a writer that didn't knew how Batman mind work. When his parent killed he didn't kill their murderer instead he decided to fight crime instead. By avenging Alfred in this way not only disrespect what Batman is, but a disrespect to Alfred who always advice him to have higher moral ground.
To give you a better understanding. When Alfred was killed in this story, it completely broke Batman. Alfred was the only man he knew and trusted and the only person that would always be there for him despite whatever happened. When the Alfred AI was made, despite still being Broken inside, Batman still abided by his code, it wasn't till after AI Alfred started killing all the villains and inmates and then turning Batman into an android, which happened because he didn't want Bruce to be hurt or be sad anymore, that he did away with his moral code and started to kill.
In addition to what that other comment said, this is in the dark multiverse. These universes were supposed to be destroyed because they were broken and fated to end in tragedy but weren't.
The flash wouldve just ran back in time and change that event by saving Alfred which might be one of the rare occasions where saving a life to alter a timeline would do more good than harm but the only issue is what will happen to Flash
Even though I only read comics, because they tell stories about Batman, it makes everyone curious. even though watching😊 videos is easier and more enjoyable to enjoy without having to read them. success always bro😊
The problem with dc always lies in, no matter what is taken from them, nor the amount of lives taken cause they refuse to do just that to their villains... they then try to just peddle it off as a simple fucking mistake that these people die... like BRUH. Dc super heros are both the smartest and dumbest of them all I swear. Mistakes are meant to be learned from, not repeated on loop for all eternity like some fucked up joke. Not only that, but anytime they want to get the thing back that they lost... depending on what it is, they immediately turn into huge douchebags the second something goes slightly wrong. Which always leads to these types of scenarios and end results... especially when they refuse to try and talk sense or be there for their team members only. Only doing so when its far too late to do anything.
The thing I dislike is that not only, does the incentive for perpetual villains makes a mockery of the empathy and restraint that heroes portray, the story tries to force the incompatible theme even further by turning the characters evil when they finally do the smart thing and don't give mercy to the villains who will simply use it against them. It's like forcefeeding the theme to an audience that knows that mercy doesn't work. "See! Look! Look at this! Bad things happen! Either, or, no in between! " I think MCU Spiderman does mercy theme the best. Because the story actually rewards his restraint by showing us that the villains, trapped and troubled individuals, did change and are able to be cured in the end. Instead of an eternal resource sink.
“Convincing himself it’s somehow his fault” Continuing to let psychopathic murderers to live and rampage as they please, Alfred’s death was absolutely Batman’s fault
The worst part of this comic, and basically every comic that's even tangentially related to the "Cringlelord who Giggles" is that they NEVER show any villains dying. IT'S ALWAYS THE HEROES BEING KILLED.
Technically, it is the AI Alfred who kills everyone, and that is disappointing. With this title, I was expecting Batman Bruce going berserk mode and killing all who murdered Alfred. Just them.
What not many understand is that Batman's true moral anchor are not his principles or his traumas, but Alfred. By killing Alfred you don't destroy Batman, you only break the chains that hold back the monster he has always had inside.
I realize most of these dark multiverse stories in the actual dark multiverse are about Batman, it always bothered me how easily Superman went down. The guy who ends up knocking out Barbatos ( or was it the world forger?). He goes down easy in these universes. It would have been better if Batman found a way to trick Superman in all of them instead of just easily killing him.
That's because these stories are based on the dark knights that the batman who laughs recruited. This worlds are also based on the nightmares and fears of every individual so there's easily worlds that green lantern or plastic man kills the whole justice league
Batman's not wrong, it IS his fault. He chose this life that brings so many enemies and he chose not to kill these enemies. Alfred was a willing participant, but definitely Batman's fault
By your logic the police should just shoot all criminals on sight. Because they are just going to commit more crimes anyway. I mean Cops are at least authorized lawmen. Batman is just some rich nutcase who they tolerate because he DOES NOT KILL PEOPLE.

*cough* *cough* injustice *cough* *cough*
This isn’t injustice?
Ironic how? It's not Injustice lmfao
the justice league has destroyed the world more times than any villain
Yeah...I'm a little surprised Darkseid keeps having so much trouble with them when he should easily get them to do 90% of his job for him.
Its not exclusive to the justice league do people forget avengers and new york and then avengers 2 when an entire country was dropped on itself but lets just say its only DC 😮💨
@@KonohazFinestwithout Avengers Loki would have captured the entire planet and eventually Thanos would have destroyed it.
The justice league and their members are responsible for the destruction of the world in a lot of storys and elseworlds, but to say they do it more times than the villains, is just copium lol
Yeah but in alot of those cases we're caused by the joker or another villan going too far
That cheerful "Don't forget to like and subscribe 😃" after Cyborg got his head ripped off made me laugh so hard
2:57 Batman turned into Sub Zero for a moment
This is one of Batman’s greatest fears: Being consumed by guilt. Or at the very least, losing himself if he loses Alfred because of the mission.
It’s not like Bruce hasn’t lost people because he’s secretly the one who became the Batman, but what if he can’t handle the unimaginable loss of the man who raised him like a son when he thought his world ended. Batman works in the shadows, but it’s not risk free. Any of his allies, himself included, can get hurt or worse. And with his wealth, knowledge and friends, there are seemingly no limits to how far Bruce would be willing to go to fill that hole or compensate for that painful, consuming grief.
To be fair in Batman Beyond Alfred dies of old age and Bruce is more or less accepting of that he has no choice. But here Bane made that personal and Bruce making himself watch the video over and over didn't help 😅
@@zackdelarosa14 Yeah, there’s a difference. Natural causes vs murder.
@@zackdelarosa14There's a big difference between someone dying of old age and being murdered by people actively looking for your surrogate son. Batman is mature enough to accept Alfred growing old and dying as that would mean he lived a fairly good life and went peacefully. Him being personally responsible for his death is a different matter entirely.
@@Capta1nTD boy you must be a detective. Yes no shit that's why he succumbs in elseworld stories they aren't gonna cannonically kill Alfred other than Batman Beyond because of age
@@zackdelarosa14 Alfred's currently dead in the main timeline though :( (I mean yeah he'll eventually come back... he'd BETTER come back....)
I sometimes wish there was a full reverse Injustice story where Batman is the one doing the regime and superman's trying to stop them from killing.
You just watched it
Thats the dark multiverse
You should check out the fourth snake, I'm pretty sure he does an entire story based on it on his chanel
basically the DC version of the Ultron story
Mortal Combat really haunted an entire generation! The old "pull out head and spine" trope seems to...pop up... a lot in the ol' pop culture!
Kombat*
Its not Mortal Kombat, its from The Predator originally.
FATALITY
You're one of the few good ones. Almost nobody else put the comics on the description of the video. All those "comic book channels" fail to promote the artist and writers. But not you friend. Thank you.
"You don't have to let yourself become some kind of horrible *murder machine*!" Is some of the derpiest writing i have ever heard.
Cinema sins: Roll Credits! Ding! 🔔
I mean, what else would he say? Sometimes a spades a spade.
“So what are we, some kind of…Suicide Squad?”
All the Dark Multiverse Batmen have tragic stories. Although,Grim Knight is not only my favorite,he's the one that's kinda not evil.
I love when Batman and Alfred call each other father and son.
Oh so when all of the batfamily dies he still doesn’t kill but when Alfred dies he’s on an rampage
Me waiting for the part when the Batman who laughs comes to recruit him
So once again, Alfred bested the JL.
I've gotta say, I REALLY don't liie how often Batman can single handedly take down, bot just the Justice League, but all the other DC Superheros and Villians all at once.
It really kills any weight the Justice League's big fights may have, when you know Batman has the ability to do it all himself.
I mean, why isn't Batman ever defeated whenever he becomes a villain? So much for the Justice League being his protocol for if he goes bad.
To be fair, the worlds of the Dark Multiverse aren't "real" in the way other DC worlds are, worlds where Batman is powerful but not "solos the universe" tier.
The evil Batmen destroyed everyone because these worlds were literally creations of Bruce's imagination, so the heroes and villains were weaker than their "real" counterparts/destined to lose.
But it is a valid complaint, I'll give you that. I know Batman is overhyped but I tend to enjoy it as he's my favorite superhero.
@@brandonwilliams4050 I thought Injustice did it best, though I have yet to see a Batman Gone Bad vs. The Justice League that I really enjoy, which isn't just B-man overpowering everyone.
He could only do that if he became a villain himself so really, he can't do it.
@anthonychase6906 that's the problem though, he's WAY too overpowered.
IN SOME TWIST OF DATE
**And then he is suddenly recruited by the batman who laughs**
Bruh, way to brutalise the mood at the end lmao
Cyborg: "You can go back to yourself, you don't have to be a murderer! It's not too late!"

Killing Alfred is like killing John Wick's dog: you Don't do it.
The real Alfred would not allow Batman to do this
You forgot to say the typical trope "then the Batman that laughs recruits him to the dark knights to rule the multiverse blah blah blah"
The happy "Don't forget like a subcribe" at the end 🤣
He’s completely OK with the death of millions in the hands of the Joker, but he goes crazy with the death of one old person.
DC execs need to sit and discuss seriously about where this character has fallen into.
It's the Dark-Multiverse for a reason dude......
@@neojenshi4055 What’s the difference? All superhero comic books today, even in the brightest of universes have deaths in every page, heroes that bring more pain than relief, more despair than hope, more grief than joy.
You say this happened in the dark universe, but what makes you think it wouldn’t have happened in the main one. All Batmen after Infinite Crisis are crazy.
Also Batman: dies from tripping
The art in this is phenomenal....wow
That thumbnail though. My unsanitized mind sees a bunch of big, muscular dudes giving Harley Quinn a good time.
Moral of story is don’t kill Alfred and don’t let Batman kill joker.
If you didn't kill a serial killer, would you have the blood of his next victims on your hands?
The crazy part about this, is how Bane was able to find the one thing that would have Batman cross that line, and take it away from him. Something that Joker could never truly do himself. Something that a chemically induced meathead could accomplish, but not the laughing Clown Prince of Crime. (Kind of an ironic punchline in a way)
Bane's not crazy.
Like, literally. Bane is one of the few sane people in Batman's rogue gallery. His reliance upon Venom isn't even a addiction, it's just his thing. He shouldn't ever be in Arkham, he's a sane criminal.
@@unusualusername8847plus, he isn't a meathead at all. He's easily one of Batman's most cunning and intelligent villains
@@unusualusername8847 What's with people claiming that half of Batman's rogues' gallery isn't insane, recently? Two days ago I literally saw someone say the Penguin is sane. He isn't, and neither is Bane, far from it.
@@Bane520 Banes not criminally insane in the lore of Batman. At most he's addicted to venom, but he has no actual mental illnesses.
Penguins literally a crime boss. Unless you consider his gimmick a mental illness (in which case lock up every supervillain in Arkham) Penguin in most depictions is just a regular crime boss.
Black Mask is a crime boss with the gimmick he wears a black mask. Why? Who tf knows. Is he criminally insane for wearing a mask?
Bane is no meathead. He’s at least as smart as Batman.
In any of these overpowered batman story, you see armors capable of fucking up superman more easily than Lex Luthor with a kryptonite dildo. Where are these armor when Doomsday come by ?
Bro the cops taking a pic on Bane is so funny💀💀🤣🤣
"He than rips his head off his spinal cord💀"
"Also don't forget to like and subscribe and turn on notifications 😁"
If only Bat shared his plot armor to Alfred.
"Batman feels his own fault"
Well duh, how many times you put them in prison only for they to broke out make crime and looping the process through infinity lol
Crazy how evil superman almost always fails but evil batman wins faster than the flash can run around the earth
Because that’s how the Writers create the story, a real Superman would win
Plot armor
What is it with Bane and his obsession to always break people's backs
Smells like Ultron in here
A real Alfred AI would have had Batman retried and any villain a harsh lecture.
0:14 It's his fault! Batman is the real villain by letting monsters live.
Take it back..😠😠😡
@@TheLegacy87 (inhale)
Boi
@@TheLegacy87 it is his fault if he had one through the trouble of preventing these people from ever hurting someone again or even getting them proper treatment instead of just returning them back to Arkham asylum which has been doing a terrible job at treating patients Alfred would still be alive look what happened when joker killed Jason Todd and then he doesn't even let the poor guy get his play remind you that joker ass killed so many people I can't even count them anymore and every one of them died because Batman let joker live Batman should have at least it's something to prevent joker from ever harming another person again cutting off his limbs is a good example
Fam. That's like saying it's the police fault for catching a mass murderer and putting him on death row, only for other people breaking him out of a maximum security prison so that he can continue murdering again.
They did thier jobs. The prison failed at thiers. Get it right.
@@castleford2591 The punisher does not have this problem though. And cops can end someone life in self-defense, but batboy will refuse to end someone even in that situation. Also there's plenty of times the bat saved a villains life when they were about to die. That's crazy.
Cant believe how fire this videos are.
how did the justice league lose to him what the plot armor💀
Alfred got jumped an your laughing.
Alfred got jumped an your laughing.😂
This has to be a dark universe, because Bruce in all other circumstances would be too selfless to sacrifice others to uplift himself. Without proper closure from Alfred-like him simply passing from old age-he becomes reckless and relentless until the very end and pushes himself over the edge. But even then, he would never break his code. He’d be dancing with death without a care. But the bat family usually brings back his humanity and consoles him to where he’s back to himself. Although, it’s really tragic when either Batman or Alfred dies. They’re the glue of the bat family, father and grandfather.
You mean father and father. Alfred is a father to the batkids, not a grandfather.
Superman injustice: How does it feel to be deconstructed, to be the victim of seeing your dreams die?
I love how goofy comics are , bro is really like « you killed my slave so I destroy the universe »
Meanwhile in teen titan:*cyborgs head gets decapitated* "yknow iam still alive right?"
Guess they realized they couldn't
Beat batman so they decided to go
For the heart.
Look at Alfred lying on Harley's leg.😂
Gave him something he could feel.
Age of Alfred
The Batman who laughs: "Oh boy another one showed up"
I’m just stack looking at how jacked Bruce’s back is at 1:44. Literal IFBB bodybuilder
ya and banes out there lookin like mf Ronnie xD
What can be said, Batman is one of the heroes who's strenght and fit body are an necessity for his job. It just so happens that this artist did quite a nice job a depicking his phisic.
Too bad I can't say the same for this picture 1:50. Not because it's badly drawn. But because the desighn and view of it's features screams to me "batman themed iron man knock off suit"
Lesson : “ Don’t…DON’T Clap Alfred or else we All get Clapped “💀🤝🗿
Imagine other batman roger gallery react to this if they live long enought to see what have this batman become
Oldest story ever. You'll become what you hate if you can't let go of the past.
the real bane would never hurt alfred because its the easy pray, bane only fight fair and i know this is from another universe
He literally turned Alfred into Jarvis lol
This is proof that there's always a writer that didn't knew how Batman mind work. When his parent killed he didn't kill their murderer instead he decided to fight crime instead. By avenging Alfred in this way not only disrespect what Batman is, but a disrespect to Alfred who always advice him to have higher moral ground.
To give you a better understanding. When Alfred was killed in this story, it completely broke Batman. Alfred was the only man he knew and trusted and the only person that would always be there for him despite whatever happened. When the Alfred AI was made, despite still being Broken inside, Batman still abided by his code, it wasn't till after AI Alfred started killing all the villains and inmates and then turning Batman into an android, which happened because he didn't want Bruce to be hurt or be sad anymore, that he did away with his moral code and started to kill.
In addition to what that other comment said, this is in the dark multiverse. These universes were supposed to be destroyed because they were broken and fated to end in tragedy but weren't.
I see it as a "What If?" and call it a day
The flash wouldve just ran back in time and change that event by saving Alfred which might be one of the rare occasions where saving a life to alter a timeline would do more good than harm but the only issue is what will happen to Flash
Marvel's Superior batman
Casually says "Don't forget forget to like the channel" after Cyborg's head gets torn apart.
Excellent job ❤
Boy bane sure loves snappin
Even though I only read comics, because they tell stories about Batman, it makes everyone curious. even though watching😊 videos is easier and more enjoyable to enjoy without having to read them. success always bro😊
Please... Theres a reason nobody messes with Alred. His sarcasm alone collapses stars.
The problem with dc always lies in, no matter what is taken from them, nor the amount of lives taken cause they refuse to do just that to their villains... they then try to just peddle it off as a simple fucking mistake that these people die... like BRUH. Dc super heros are both the smartest and dumbest of them all I swear. Mistakes are meant to be learned from, not repeated on loop for all eternity like some fucked up joke.
Not only that, but anytime they want to get the thing back that they lost... depending on what it is, they immediately turn into huge douchebags the second something goes slightly wrong. Which always leads to these types of scenarios and end results... especially when they refuse to try and talk sense or be there for their team members only. Only doing so when its far too late to do anything.
The thing I dislike is that not only, does the incentive for perpetual villains makes a mockery of the empathy and restraint that heroes portray, the story tries to force the incompatible theme even further by turning the characters evil when they finally do the smart thing and don't give mercy to the villains who will simply use it against them.
It's like forcefeeding the theme to an audience that knows that mercy doesn't work.
"See! Look! Look at this! Bad things happen! Either, or, no in between! "
I think MCU Spiderman does mercy theme the best. Because the story actually rewards his restraint by showing us that the villains, trapped and troubled individuals, did change and are able to be cured in the end. Instead of an eternal resource sink.
“Convincing himself it’s somehow his fault”
Continuing to let psychopathic murderers to live and rampage as they please, Alfred’s death was absolutely Batman’s fault
Alternative title: if Batman actually did his job
They kind of forgot batman is a billionarie who can afford a hypersonic missile at their direction lmaoo
The worst part of this comic, and basically every comic that's even tangentially related to the "Cringlelord who Giggles" is that they NEVER show any villains dying.
IT'S ALWAYS THE HEROES BEING KILLED.
Technically, it is the AI Alfred who kills everyone, and that is disappointing. With this title, I was expecting Batman Bruce going berserk mode and killing all who murdered Alfred. Just them.
This feels like a Batman themed twist on Roko’s basilisk
What not many understand is that Batman's true moral anchor are not his principles or his traumas, but Alfred. By killing Alfred you don't destroy Batman, you only break the chains that hold back the monster he has always had inside.
I wouldn't be surprised if the writers for this comic have also made Spider-man comics.
Remember guys, while Bruce may have his no-kill rule, Alfred subscribes to no such niceties…
I realize most of these dark multiverse stories in the actual dark multiverse are about Batman, it always bothered me how easily Superman went down. The guy who ends up knocking out Barbatos ( or was it the world forger?). He goes down easy in these universes. It would have been better if Batman found a way to trick Superman in all of them instead of just easily killing him.
That's because these stories are based on the dark knights that the batman who laughs recruited. This worlds are also based on the nightmares and fears of every individual so there's easily worlds that green lantern or plastic man kills the whole justice league
Characters are only as strong or as weak as the narrative requires.
Superman should be the last one to talk, cos at the smallest minor inconvenience he murderers everyone 😂
Batman's not wrong, it IS his fault. He chose this life that brings so many enemies and he chose not to kill these enemies. Alfred was a willing participant, but definitely Batman's fault
By your logic the police should just shoot all criminals on sight. Because they are just going to commit more crimes anyway. I mean Cops are at least authorized lawmen. Batman is just some rich nutcase who they tolerate because he DOES NOT KILL PEOPLE.
Yes and no. He is not responsible for their choices. If he killed them, he would’ve become this anyway.
And then he actually named himself "murder machine" like it was a good idea😂
When plot armor doesn't GAF.
The happiest and most family friendly DC comic
