A what if tale within a random story; we get a look at some perversion of a random Gothamite. The story csptures the insanity that all citizens must be suffering from insanity. Or maybe this is just a closer look at a mind not yet fully corrupted and accepted as flawed.

I have no idea what is going on, and the cliffhanger doesn't help at all. Who is the "hulk" character? How could they transform? What does Batman mean by his last line? I feel like this tale was just a way to mock the meme "I'm Batman" but for what purpose, I cannot say

In some ways, Bruce never grew up; he remained a traumatized child. He can never stop reliving the moment his world broke apart. Every criminal he stops is the one that killed his parents. This story captures that, and shows that the Batman may be just as crazy as his rogues gallery.

Batman rescues the common folk, and Wayne employes Gothamites that serve the bat. Its also a look at what makes a hero; perhaps the man who supplies the tools can be a hero, too. And sometimes, a boy's own father is their best hero

(POTENTIAL SPOILER ALERT)
The story captures Batman's sympathy for victims of crimes, but it was too fast paced for the story elements which leaned into supernatural element, a little. It also felt like the writer wanted to say Batman allowed the scientist to meet their justified fate at the hands of their mad creations.

Batman kept his promise: a child did not witness their parents' murder. A simple straightforward story that is as much an homage as it is a filler. What makes it even better is that Bruce expresses his softer side at the end, giving a family a present they'd not soon forget

The only good thing about this stroy was that Batman cared for the child. Beyond that, it was a longwinded rant from an abusive, and neglectful father, trying to justify his actions. I almost wish Batman had just punched the prick out.

Returning to the roots of the character, which calls the shadows home, scaring criminals senseless. This was a fun short tale, from the POV of the criminals not wanting to believe in the myth plaguing the Gotham underworld

Batman does not forget the criminals or victims, and he surprises folks with how big his heart is. From acquiring the sidekick Robin to changing up his costume a little, he never wants to frighten children. And this story is an example of the lengths he'd go to achieve that feat.

A love letter from father to son as the background is a wonderful setup. And the letter being read by Alfred, the surrogate father, was the cherry on top. The whole while, Batman is living out a skewed vision of a wish from his father was an absolute ethos move.

I don't get the purpose of setting the story up for the reader to experience actors in the roles, only for the tale to end with the actors still in costume leaving the workday. What makes it worse is that the esthetic of Batman was totally missed.
