[QUOTE="Tequila Sunrise, post: 6286233, member: 40398"] So your response to Umbran's comment is that since we don't know the true story of the real King Arthur, [I]none [/I]of the King Arthur stories are acceptable. And, by inference, only the very first author's interpretation of Batman is acceptable. I'm just going to say that while I can see how the Christian Bale Batman taking a hiatus and then retiring from crime fighting might ring hollow for a comic book aficionado, I just can't get myself worked up about it. If anything, these things make Batman a more believable character. I mean if there are no super villains to fight after Harvey's death, Gotham doesn't need him. And if fact hates him. Sure he could spend his Saturday nights taking down petty crooks, but leaving the small fish to the cops is a perfectly reasonable decision too. Likewise, I took his retirement as the result of character growth. I know Batman is just a super hero blockbuster, but I'm not going to complain if a bit of character growth worms its way into my mindless entertainment. I don't see Batman's hiatus and retirement as at all comparable to your parody of the Justice League, but whatever. You've clearly got The Facts all worked out for yourself, and I'm just some dude who's never read a Batman comic, so I bow to your superior wisdom. [/QUOTE]
