    Barbatos is the reason for batman's "plot armour" in the stories. The writers made batman's plot armour a real plot point, which is genius!

      This is a bit more paradoxal than that. It states that Barbatos chose Batman after he fell through time and took on the bat mantle in the ancient past. After that, Barbatos began to manipulate things for him, right up until Batman fell through time so Barbatos could choose him and begin manipulating things up until Batman falls through time so Barbatos could choose him and manipulate things right up until...

      @enishi4ty5 6 років тому +12

      Barbatos didnt come into play until final crisis. Then he went and followed bruces lineage from that point on, infecting everything around him. This makes it hard to say barbatos created batman, but more so created the modern more b.s. batman, aka new52/rebirth batman, and assisted him. Im sure the whole point of this story is to bring batman back to his roots, similar to how superman of n52 had to be stripped and erased.

      @gregorystephan1547 6 років тому

      I've been ranting to all my friend about this. I say bar-buh-tos, going off the wiki for the demon (in Christian mythology) Barbathos, which was how it was spelled in the 3-issue story in Legends of the Dark knight in 1990. Which is the basis for a lot of Morrison's Batman run, and directly referenced in Batman lost (the underground human sacrifice scene in the late 1700s). Not to mention, Arris' (and many other reviewers/youtubers') pronunciation sounds like the American pronunciation of Barbados, the island nation where Rihanna is from, which is also a mispronunciation.
      In short: bar-buh-tos, or bar-bat-os, work for me.
