    In comic books there are unspoken laws:
    - Ben Parker always dies and is the only character to remain dead
    - Krypton always blows up
    - AND ALFRED ALWAYS LIVES!!

      If they are going to Reboot DC universe again and they already started to kill off Batman long time villains. Let it play out. Besides Alfred was like in his low 80's so how long do you think he was still going to remain active. I always though they needed to bring in a Junior Butler years ago, Alfred's endurance is beyond human levels for a man of his advance age.

    Alfred's death in the Dark Knight Returns comics was more deserving, dying when his purpose of helping Bruce was served. It's what he would've wanted. Even though, he would've put his own life on the line for the Bat family many times, what Bane did to Alfred was just heartbreaking. Alfred dying of old age in the Dark Returns was a more dignified and fitting way for how he wanted to go, in peace and free of pain.

    I hate this. I hate everything about this.
    It doesn't feel like a beloved character has passed. It feels like John Wicks puppy. A gut punch from a writer to drive a narrative.
    It feels like dc execs murdered Alfred in an attempt to drive sales.
    It feels like what it is... Cheap, fake, wrong and somehow, weirdly personal.
    It wasn't done to Bruce Wayne or the bat family it was done to US the reader, the long time fan.
    Casual readers won't care and cannonically it won't stick so who does that leave? What/who was this for?
    Don't poke your fans with a stick to see what happens DC. Did the death of Supes teach you nothing? Bad call guys. If there was a legitimate reason for it I could forgive it but there isn't and I can't so finish this up and move on. All you've done is cut the warm heart out of the batman stories. A necessary balance. Now we have to wait until you can either write your way out of it or until its been long enough you can bring him back without losing face.
    Good job guys. Well done.

      The way he died was atrocious, but I'm hopeful about what writers could do with the premise. It wouldn't be the first time a great series defining change came from a less than steller story.

    Whenever Bruce was down and needed help, Alfred would always help him and get him back up. Without Alfred, how can Bruce be Batman?

  • @coletrain583
    @coletrain583 3 года назад +3

    Alfred deserve better than this. He was more than Bruce's butler, he was his best friend. Without him, Bruce couldn't truly be Batman. Why? Because every time Bruce was at his worst, Alfred was always there for him and helped get him back up. But now, I don't know how Bruce could recover this time. Bane really broke the Bat, Joker's probably pissed off that not only did Bane the very thing he wanted to do for years, break the spirit of his enemy. Not mention, Bruce's father Thomas, one of his very reasons for becoming Batman played a part in the death of the man who helped Bruce throughout all the years. Not to mention, after everything Alfred did for the Wayne family. This is how he was rewarded? Alfred was the best of the Bat Family, he was the only person who kept Bruce sane. This was probably the worst to happen to Batman since losing Jason. Damian's blames himself for what happened to Alfred, but it wasn't his fault. Alfred would've died protecting the Bat family, but this was not a deserving fate for him. How Bruce will recover from this, I don't know. Thomas's delusional attempts at giving Bruce a normal life ended with destroying what's left of it as well ruining his son's chance at actually living one while still being Batman.

    R.I.P. Alfred Pennyworth: truly the hardest-working hero in DC Comics. Not only did he support Batman and the entire Bat Family, he also propped up most of the DC heroes at least once- and some many times, like Superman and Green Arrow.

    Alfred is not dead . His father threw Alfred into time and the Alfred we seen died was Bruce’s father Alfred . Alfred is somewhere in tine where a rescue mission is going to play out and during that mission they will find something that they weren’t supposed to find and the multi verse will come under fire once again

  • @Darth_Melek

    I think this is a way to apply realism into the Batman universe. I like it. Imagine that in Batman Beyond Bruce suddenly gets a flashback of Alfred from before his death and how they use it as a callback with now Bruce leading the family instead of Alfred.
