This is what Batman's world should look like

I think TDKR's design does make sense. If Bruce persists on being Batman even in his 50s, I'd imagine he'd have no choice but to switch approaches. Relying on speed and agility isn't gonna fly anymore; no matter how much he trains and keeps himself in shape, he'll never be as fast as he used to be. So he'd go the other direction. He'd bulk up as much as his body would allow and rely on raw strength and endurance. He might not be as spry as he used to be, but he has good pain tolerance.

It's like in Rocky Balboa. Raw power was all he had at his age. He just couldn't hope to move like he used to. So he went all out on power. Obviously, even if you use this route, you'll never be as strong as someone half your age, but it's all grandpas like them can reasonably do.

Denny ONeil Batman
Where every story is just
>Actually I'm too cool for my awesome gadgets and cars and airplanes
>I'm not a magician anymore either
>I'm a weeaboo who trained in the hills with tibetan monks
>and now I'm fighting some eastern peril guy
The best part of ONeil's Batman was Neal Adams art. Steve Englehart was the definitive 70s Batman writer.

>>150237977
yeah except rocky doesn't have gorillions of dollars to spend on cutting edge tech that lets him compensate for his edge. exoskeleton tech that makes you stronger and more agile even fucking exists IRL so there's literally no reason bruce couldn't just throw money at this problem. but that doesn't make for a melodramatic nolan arc

besides pregnant catwoman, I agree with you on that OP

>>150237629 (OP)
damn how many burgers did selina eat

>>150237629 (OP)
She just looks fat and bats seems mad.

>>150237629 (OP)
Earth 2 was the main continuity and Batman did infact married. Dick and their daughter get into a sexy romance.

>>150237629 (OP)
She done got the Bat seed

blonde Selina never worked for me.
I know it's a golden age thing

It's a mandated reference to Michelle Pfeiffer

FPBP

>>150238254
is there a character Englehart didnt write perfectly? Everything he touched was golden.

>>150247736
I could never get into his GL

>>150237654
Obviously the 70s characterization was better but I really like Frank Miller's Batman look. The forehead wrinkles on his blue cowl with the short ears- chef's kiss. Picrel with a slimmer symbol would be my ideal batlook.

>>150237654
you say appeared in tdksa like its a bad thing

Wasn’t there a universe made by a tumblr troon that had Damian as the new Batman and Selina and Bruce’s kid is his Robin?

I know the fic was made by a pooner

>>150247736
Englehart Avengers and everything he wrote at Marvel was atrocious. Fuck Mantis.

>>150251924
>Damian as the new Batman and Selina and Bruce’s kid is his Robin
what's so wrong about that. was bat-cat's kid gay or trans.

>>150237629 (OP)
Anyone else never liked Catwoman? A selfish thieving bitch is Batman's true love? Trash writing. And I never liked the stereotype of "Thieving is a harmless crime!" Try and steal and lets see how law enforcement treat you. And you have to remember Catwoman indeed tries to steal from even the innocent because she's a klepto. She can't help herself.

Another issue is Catwoman is boring as sin. After her debut story her gimmick about stealing will just get boring. Catwoman is honestly a big failure idea for the Batman franchise. Up there with Talia who managed to give us bad ideas like Damian.

>>150237654
The thing with Bats is either is a very believable path for him. Ironically, The DCAU's Bats is largely the right one.

>>150252009
Gay and really was just the author’s self insert. He made him look like MGK with piercings and full sleeve tattoos

>>150251226
Who dady?

>>150252090
Funny thing is some people get sleeve tattoos even when there's nothing to cover up
Really it shows they're conforming to the old idea of tattoos damaging someone's ability to get hired, or that tattoos automatically mean criminality.
They want to experience the thing they were told to hate, while still internally hating it instead of fully understanding and accepting it

>>150252970
Not only that but his shit Robin OC doesn’t even bother covering them up in his costume. So villains can easily see his fucking identity

>>150238254
O'Neil's one off moody, globetrotting detective stories were always great pulp.

>>150244603
Blonde Selina and noirette Selina are equally sexy. It's when you get to nigress Selina that shit goes downhill fast

>>150238553
>bats seems mad
He told selina to stay her pregnant ass home but she insisted on patrolling with him

>>150253596
Are there good Batman comics with this style? No shitty Killing Joke style bullshit, just down-to-earth detective Batman with no magic

>>150254193
Just pick up 70's through 80's Batman issues. sometimes there's some R'as shit but most mysticism ends at more vague stuff where it's not entirely explainable but not necessarily magic or spirits

>>150254117
>It's when you get to nigress Selina that shit goes downhill fast
Eartha Kitt Catwoman was a ticking timebomb.

>>150254424
Holy sovl, we've gotten robbed of this and instead get trash like serious house on serious earth nowadays

>>150237629 (OP)
I was reading Superman/Batman Generations and they have Bruce married to a woman who is basically inconsequential aside from birthing a son who takes the mantle of Batman.

>>150251226
What ever happened to the kids that Ivy made?

>>150252909
Probably Robin, they both got the hots for him secretly

>>150251939
His Dr. Strange was good.
His fetish for Mantis is funny, even if it was to the detriment of everything else.

>>150254669
In a pot so they can grow big and strong.

>>150247053
She also had a completely different personality and isn't fluffy, so that seemed pointless to do.

>>150255132
I don't know, I prefer BTAS Catwoman to TNBA one. She felt like a better character in the former. Personally, I don't really care if Selina is blonde or brunette.

>>150244603
>I know it's a golden age thing
It's not. It comes from Batman Forever

>>150251939
Cannot agree, I really liked West Coast Avengers.

>>150237629 (OP)
concerning pregnant catwoman, I agree with you on that OP
>>150238506
>besides pregnant catwoman
Strange. Perhaps homosexual, even.

>>150237654
kek

>>150251924
I don't know, but this thread reminded me of Marry the Knight by seriousish.
Seriousish... now that's a name I haven't heard in a while...

>>150254117
What's really gay is that the purple compliments dark skin but the people who brownify Selina just want a diversity quota, and not a cool character, so they put her in the black

>>150257005
She goes by like a dozen names. Still around and somehow still has a Patreon

>wanting to have yet another child on batman's life
How about fucking no

>>150257327
Yeah the batfamily is already overpopulated.
Nobody fucking wants another child.

>>150237629 (OP)
So it’s impregnation for the women and rape for the men?

>>150237654
low test

>>150257132
I don't want to pay any patreon faggot money but I've long been tempted. But I don't even know if my favorite stories are getting updated, so no dice.

Why do Superman and Batman have multiple harems?

>>150258291
How do you manage different harems? I mean having the girls get along and have sex with each other it's hard enough to do with one ham how do you manage different ones?

>>150258071
Can’t remember anything being locked as thats popular. Maybe a delay on story uploads.

Batman should look like this, but Catwoman should be a barely legal spunky latina thief who commits crime for Batman's attention

>>150238375
Kingdom Come Batman just gave up and went full iron man.

No

>>150258798
You said this in the last Catwoman thread we had

>>150257327
>>150257335
Retool every Batfamily member younger than Bruce that's not already his love interest or related to him into his child.
>Dicl = Bruce + Ivy
>Jason = Bruce + Harley
>Tim = Batman + Vicki
>Huntress = Bruce + Selena
>Cassandra = Bruce + Shiva
>Duke = Bruce + Waller
>Bluebird = Bruce + Mother
>Carrie = Bruce + Barbara
>Rule 63 Cluemaster so Stephanie is Bruce's
>Rule 63 Lucius Fox so his/her son's are Bruce's
>Gotham and Gotham Girl could get their powers from their mother.

>>150237654
What is this? The very first thing O'Neil did was kick Dick out of the book. He didn't come back to the main title till Conway took over writing.

>>150255339
Even the whole Mockingbird/Hawkeye blowup because she let the guy that tried to rape her fall to his death?

>>150261202
>The very first thing O'Neil did was kick Dick out of the book.
That was Frank Robbins under Julius Schwartz. No idea why people keep thinking it was O'Neil when he wouldn't even be an editor until much later
