It is definitively true of DCAU Batman https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7t7yiN_Z5eg Superman's kind of complicated and I think you can fairly define a few personas he wears. - The "Clark Kent" that he is in Smallville around Ma and Pa Kent is probably his most genuine and the one he grew up as before adopting the Superman side - The bumbling clumsy Clark Kent he plays in Metropolis to avert suspicion of being Superman is a character - The Superman who acts as a paragon of justice inspiring hope to citizens of Metropolis by calmly and as-peacefully-as-possible stopping bank robbers and helping kittens in trees is kind of a character - The Superman who goes all-out no-holds-barred killing alien dictators is less of a character and more genuine But I know the Kill Bill canon is that Superman is his real identity so we can also just go with that --- http://i.imgur.com/dzGMd.png ...

Zikten posted... Comic book nonsense. If he cleaned up Gotham, the story would end No. Supergirl actually does it in one comic and it ended up making things worse because old fashioned organized crime took over Gotham as the big villains got put away. Batman's method as dumb as it is, happens to be the most effective for Gotham. Joker, Bane, Riddler, etc are all so obsessed with Batman that he ends up drawing most of the crime away to target him specifically. Joker only murders people if he thinks it'll make Batman upset and he needs to make a spectacle out of it. Shooting people in an alleyway just don't cut it. --- It says right here in Matthew 16:4 "Jesus doth not need a giant Mecha." https://i.imgur.com/dQgC4kv.jpg ... Copied to Clipboard!

Kuuko posted... But I know the Kill Bill canon is that Superman is his real identity so we can also just go with thatOne of my pet peeves is that people always assume that declaration by a Quentin Tarantino character about pop culture or societal norms is Tarantino bestowing a deep, undeniable Tarantino Truth on us when that's not even his intention. Usially he's just using them to show that character's point of view. Tarantino himself may not even agree with them. And I agree with your analysis. Clark Kent, the unpretentious and even dorky guy from Smallville is the truest version of Kal-El.

It doesn't really matter what Batman thinks of himself though. He thinks of himself as Batman because he's deeply troubled and arguably insane. It doesn't change the fact that it's a persona he entirely fabricated for himself. Batman is the mask Bruce hides behind to avoid dealing with his issues. Superman is slightly different because while Superman is who he is (he's an alien from Krypton, no matter how you shake it) he assumed he WAS Clark Kent, normal human, for a long time. The act he puts on to fool people is obviously fake though. --- Down with the Signess. ... Copied to Clipboard!

To me, this honestly kinda nullifies the costume. It just means that the costume is a piece of cloth with no personality or identity of its own. The Bruce Wayne that we see in the Batcave is the real individual and putting on the costume is like cranking the volume up to 11. That's how it should be. The mask should have its own identity that completes the Bruce Wayne/Batman puzzle. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Earlier on in BTAS, it felt like Bruce Wayne was who he really wanted to be, but he knew Bruce was limited in what he could do. But as he gets older and more jaded, Bruce Wayne truly starts becoming the mask.You could probably make an argument either way on this. One of my favorite small details in BTAS is how Kevin Conroy does the gruff Batman voice whenever he's in the cave or talking to Alfred or Robin and switches to the friendly Bruce voice when he's talking to anyone else in public. In a lot of scenes he's even out of costume when he's doing the Batman voice. To me it says something about how much the Bruce persona is an act, and how he's naturally in "Batman mode". https://youtu.be/fSSQypRvfWY?t=87 In The New Batman Adventures this small touch got dropped though and he's pretty much always doing Batman voice even in public as Bruce Wayne, which is sad. --- http://i.imgur.com/dzGMd.png ...
