Batman Was Way Cool
I don’t know, but… this Batman’s got personality. He’s like that geeky, weird guy who gives zero fucks if he looks a little gay; he feels wonderful –in his leotard. And his smile makes all of it.

He also doesn’t care to hang out a lot with his best friend who EVERYONE knows is gay and makes fun. He’s been totally cool with gay marriage since before it was cool.

He was like “Robin: I know. It’s cool. Let’s do donuts in the Batmobile in the 7-11 parking lot.”

And of course, the Villains. As fascinating as the heroes? More? Definitely essential; we need someone to love to hate.

That Riddler is very unimpressive though. Looks like a sleazy uncle dude who gambles a little and never tips.
