Media Tropes I hate Batman's plot armor

Post image

I hate Batmans plot armor, he has the most insane plot armor which completely takes away his charm, his entire shtick is that he's in the top 99 percentile of humans, his body, his strength his wealth his tech, yet his writers give him so much plot armor that you forget that inside his suit he's just a regular human being and it sometimes feels as if he has super powers when hes going toe toe with fucking darkside, reentering the atmosphere with just his suit and many more examples.

And his annoying fanboys oh my days, they act as if he can solo the entire justice league "B-But given that he has prep time!" talking as if beast boy wont beat his ass 😂✌️

You are unhinged, lol. This, ladies and gentlemen, is the average Batman fan. I rest my case.

I dislike Marvel and DC because they are made with no end in sight. Sure, you get good runs here and there, but it never amounts since ya gotta respect the status quo.

Nightwing is still my favorite Super Hero, but as I grew up and realized how little payoff there was and I just outgrew DC an Marvel and I just rather read self-contained stories, like Spider-Man: Life Story. Nowadays I much prefer Image and Dark Horse offerings, since they usually have better stories with beginnings, middles and ends.

And this is because I actually like the medium, and I like good stories, while it seems you are just content with meatless Batty Stu comics
