    The emphasis on Bruce’s mother still being alive adds a unique layer to the emotional stakes of this Batman story, giving it more parallels to Peter Parker's dynamic in Marvel. Ultimately, Alfred's internal conflict about whether to stop Bruce, contrasted with Bruce's determination, makes this a very engaging reimagining of the Batman mythos.

    The two most interesting aspects of the story to me so far are that Martha is alive and that Bruce grew up with his rogue's gallery essentially. Him being childhood friends with Catwoman, Killer Croc, Penguin, Two-Face and the Riddler can make for a very interesting plot development down the line depending on what they do with those characters in this universe. I honestly did not think a broke Batman would work, but this first issue really sold me on what this universe can offer like with Marvel's Ultimate universe. Here's to hoping both universes have amazing runs for the forseeable future.

  • @tomioluwa1284

    What I like most about absolute batman is seeing how he's still choose to be a hero. In most iterations of batman it's always the lost of his parents that make him dawn the mask and sometime if he keeps them never touches being batman. So having a batman lose his dad, be a genius, be middle class, and have all the reasons to turn a blind eye to crime and still chooses to be a hero is amazing. Plus I love seeing how while batman may break things in his pursuit of crime Bruce Wayne helps to repair. Kind fixing my beef of prime bruce wayne being more of the mask for batman.

    The woman at the town hall speaking in defense of Gordon was Martha Wayne not Selina. Alfred’s thoughts about Bruce at the end weren’t that deep, he was literally wondering where he would land the bike after driving it off a skyscraper, it even intercuts with a sign from the bat habitat saying “Bats are crazy”.

    In my opinion, the alteration of Batman’s iconic origin is a bold move to capture readers. I think Snyder has pulled it off. For me, this is definitely a Batman I personally relate to. In a broader context, it’s important to note that Batman has been written from multiple perspectives throughout his nearly 100 year history. And as a result, he means different things to different people. One aspect of his character could intrigue 1 reader and a story element could hook another. This allows our mind to amalgamate the character we know as Batman into the “absolute” version of him that we prefer. I think this latest version is a brilliant example of a way he is written to connect with another kind of reader. The more Batman fans the merrier!
