I dunno*, if ever there were a symbol for reaction instead of proaction, it’s Batman. Punch their face, toss them in an “asylum”. Sometimes announce to noone in particular, “they’ll get you the help you need.” Like he actually believed it or is trying to convince himself, as if it wasn’t the 15th time he’d bloodied this guy’s face. Great detective, though.
*I’ve never read the comics
Batman is plenty proactive. For example he had collected each of the Justice League member’s weakness just in case one of them go rogue.
He also became Batman, which I imagine took some time and effort. Seems like the sort of thing you’d have to do in advance at least.
“One last thing: just imagine I was wearing some rad bat-inspired suit instead of just my boxers. Should be finished in about two days max, hold on, I think I got pictures of what it should look like on my phone, lemme see… Wayne birthday party, no, Wayne Manor basement Batcave construction site, no, Alfred’s risotto, no, BATSUIT CONCEPT ART, there we go, have a look at this-”
I imagine inheriting your family fortune helps and Alfred with his connections / extra hands. That being said I’d rather a billionaire like Batman than the ones we got.
You know, my question with the bat signal is, what do you do when it isn’t cloudy?
