    I love the hidden message behind the story. It's not the trauma that happens to us. It's what we do with that trauma. This kid insanely thought that by having his parents die, he'd be just like Bruce Wayne. Wayne became who he is by the nice things he does for others. And you don't need a bad day to convince you that others are worth helping.

    Hush did the same thing and turned out the same way, but this speaks to a larger point. This isn’t the first time Batman’s had the truths about his nature pointed out to him through his villains. Each time it’s done, he ponders the philosophical implications for a moment, ignores them and goes back to his life stopping crime. He purposely ignores it because embracing those truths would mean he’d have to stop and he doesn’t want to do that. So, he justifies his decisions by rationalizing that because they came from villains, that because evil had to be the one to point these truths out to him they must somehow be inherently flawed and malevolent, they must be twisted and designed to set him up. But good and evil are the same coin, yes? So evil isn’t completely evil and good isn’t completely good.

    *Fun fact:* Speaking of Barbara's crippling, some heroes, like Booster Gold or Zatanna, traveled back in time to stop the Joker from paralyzing her. However, each of the attempts didn't work at all, so they ended up coming to the conclusion that Barbara's crippling was the firm will of the timeline and that the only thing they could do was make sure Barbara knew that she is not alone.

    Well Harley is actively getting reformed in a lot of stories, like Injustice and HBO's Harley Quinn, and Bruce has been very supportive of her and pulled her into the bat family. It took in Injustice, but didn't work out in the HBO series (granted Bruce was also gone all season while Harley was kind of shat on by Dick, Barb, and Damien).

    So, did they change Zsasz's origin? Because his parents dying while he was a young adult was the inciting incident that sent him spiralling downward into the monster he is now. Don't get me wrong. This story is genuinely well done and the very idea of someone trying to imitate their hero to such a deranged level is inherently unnerving. It's just this one plot hole really sticks out to me.

    Oh for sure loads of times honestly I think in the old comics there was a cult that was trying to summon a demon before one there members trapped it under Gotham and it's the reason crime got so bad. While it's likely no longer canon it's kinda still implied through the lore of The Arkham Family as they actually practice witchcraft especially Amity Arkham(who's like fire ghost witch), the man who created the asylum tried to summon a bat demon with a year long spell before dying and it's possible that it can true seeing how much blackmagic and demon's are in the city. Heck later on this year we're getting another story like that but with Court of Owls. Also the city has like catacombs of dead so yeah technically a burial ground

    When that story came out, I remember my fellow Bat-fans not being huge fans of "Master Bruce" (there were lots of *Lil Xan* jokes made to his expense... just google him if you don't get it ^^), but I really, reaaally liked this issue! It's a shame that this character only made one other major appearance, in issue #61 . I remember when Clownhunter was introduced during *"Joker War"* , somehow I had hope that it would be a somewhat reformed Master Bruce, because there weren't many potential "suspects" for a teen psycho emulating Batman/Bruce but without a no-kill rule, and Clownhunter's mask hid his cheekbones, right where Matthew Warner carved the name of Bruce's parents... so I thought the artists were trying to hide them. In the end it's doubtful we'll ever see Matthew again, his story has been told, and there isn't much to do with him expect maybe be a recurring rogue for the younger members of the Batfam, like Damian, Duke or Cass, but they're way too powerful for him. When *Arkham Academy* came out in the anthology "Batman: Urban Legends" , I had one last hope that we would see him again, but sadly this was not to be... That story had a lot of potential (especially for people like me who love D-listers Bat-rogues), but sadly after only 3 issues of "Urban Legends" we got a "to be continued in another title" and that was in March 2023. It wasn't that long ago, so I still have hope... Anyway, thank you for spreading the good word of Master Bruce, last time we saw him he was being sent to Arkham since he had killed 7 people in the juvenile detention center he had originally been sent to, accusing them of being his parents killer. And since the butler, Taylor, is still on the run and bribing people inside to get Matthew whatever he wants, they can't keep him there anymore... and as the guards say => -Let the guys at Arkham Asylum deal with Matthew.. -No, no, didn't you hear? -What? -Let them deal with _Master Bruce_ -Kek.

    The ending of this comic was just sad. I always give a lot of crap to Batman mainly becasue the root of crime in gotham at least for the henchman could be solved if Bruce wayne helped fund the areas in need. I don't hat batman he's still a cool hero, but him solving cases and stopping crime only helps half of the problem. Another part being the image he has. We all know that Bruce way is supposbly a billionare, playboy, philantropist. But the idea of people potentially only seeing him as "A sick boy with dead parents" and nothing more makes me understand why he'd be Batman more than Bruce. Similar to Marc spector being moon knight. No one wants Marc or Bruce but people need Batman and Moon knight

    Both Dick and Alfred have stated that Bruce is more effective at preventing crime than Batman. But being Batman is less about being altruistic and more about Bruce having an unhealthy coping matter for his parents death. With his scientific mind he could easily find the cures to cancer or create some sort of system to solve world hunger or just entirely end homelessness in Gotham but he chooses to beat up criminals dressed as a bat because he can’t cope with his parents death still.

    And Red Hood rams a car into Mattew’s cell, killing him. The End. Every time I hear of a new Batman villain-… or even just an ordinary citizen of Gotham be this sick and twisted, I add them to a mental kill list. And hope that writers either give Jason a chance to kill someone for once or Amanda Waller uses them as government meat sponges in her next operation.

    1:38 Barbara Gordon getting paralyzed in The Killing Joke is perhaps one of the most infamous fridging moments in comic book history. Although it is understandable that many fans hated that a character as iconic as Batgirl was left in a wheelchair in a story in which she is not even the protagonist, there are two important things to keep in mind. 1. By the time The Killing Joke was made, Barbara was no longer a major character. After the first Crisis reboot, DC decided to make Batman a more lonely figure, leaving Alfred, Jason, and sometimes Dick as the only members of the Bat-Family. Due to this, many former Gotham heroes (such as Batwoman, Betty Kane or Ace) were erased from the canon, and Batgirl was retired by giving her a farewell comic, so she was now just a civilian who made sporadic and unimportant appearances. Therefore, it is understandable that DC no longer gave the character any value other than serving as motivation for the other protagonists. Anyway, I bet, if Alan Moore had written The Killing Joke in the late '70s or early '80s, there is no way they wouldn't have let him cripple Barbara. 2. Something that many people forget when criticizing The Killing Joke is the fact that Moore did not want it to be canon while writing it, as he basically considered it an imaginatory story like "Superman: Whatever Happened to the Man of Tomorrow?". He didn't expect his graphic novel would fascinate the editors so much, they would introduce it in the main continiuity. In fact, one of the reasons Moore ended up regretting his involvement in The Killing Joke was how he accidentally made Barbara permanently crippled. That said, I am not stating that what they did to Barbara in that comic was a good writing choice. I am just saying that there are more complex explanations to cases like this rather than just "pure misogyny"
