Batman punches criminals. Being poor doesn't justify criminal behavior. These dummies need to work on their "media literacy" about Lès Miserables because they got the messaging backwards

Bigot, do you not know that SCIENCE has shown that these poor colored people PERSONS OF COLOR are violent for purely socioeconomic factors?!?!?!

I'm surprised they are still allowed to call them poor. C'mon now you racist, they are persons of color who are people experiencing homelessness who are also people experiencing less financial privilege.

This is why a random 90s dollar bin Batman comic I pick up now is like Shakespeare compared to modern day writers

Well it was written by actual writers that gave a shit and weren't just making it a soapbox

Nutrition labels are more fun to read than 90% of the slop coming out of Hollywood

Can confirm. I've basically been doing that for six months, because the Keto diet is extremely strict. Lost about thirty pounds in those six months.

I know it's French and we write with funny lines over our letters, but ''Les'' dosen't need one. ''Misérables'' does though. And it has to be bent the other way ( è vs é ).

Hehe ( è . é ) looks like a frowning face.

I learned how to type those once and promptly forgot. I therefore technically misspell most things in French... It's OK most of the words are the same, and I'm not good at writing either language.

Being poor should be a crime, it'd solve a lot of problems.

Wait, another Arkham game? After Knight ending the series, and Rocksteady effectively dying by Suicide (Squad)?

They announced another one to seemingly get the name of Suicide Squad out of people's mouths and keep them one foot in the door.

Problem is that they've already proven twice now, because people forget Gotham Knights exists, that they can't make anything people want anymore.

Until those same poor people start to encroach on their neighborhoods. Then the ACAB crowd will gladly wield the power of the state to ensure the safety of their progressive enclaves from anyone with dark skin that isn’t underpaid menial labor.

“Poor people” as in, you know, hardcore criminals that will shoot and kill for $20 in your wallet…

Are you not aware of Batman's greatest foe, The Panhandler and his gang of orange sellers?

It's Batman, some of his rogues gallery would do that regardless of any money involved.

Joker: for the lols

Two Face: coin landed tails

Ra's Al Ghul: you're part of his next depopulation project

Riddler: you failed to answer a riddle, Jigsaw style from Saw

Penguin: probably one of the few that is motivated by money for moneys sake, but still psychotic enough to snap and take it out on a room

Poison Ivy: you stepped on a plant

Mr. Freeze: whether or not his latest experiment is working or not and whether you stand in the way of it or not

Kite-Man: hell, yeah.

Killer Croc: wants to eat you

King Shark: wants to eat you

Bane: probably the widest range of reasons but unlikely to ever be because of money

And the various henchmen for all of those are often enough more than happy to be violent for the sake of violence, otherwise they'd probably pick other jobs for money that didn't involve carrying enough firepower to level buildings.

The same pcgamer "journalist" is trying to goad a Black Myth: Wukong's developer with a "have you stopped beating your wife" question and received an appropriate response.

It's a VR game, and they now have a shitty track record. They deserve all the criticism they get, even if it's bat shit retarded and misplaced inadequacy issues. They still deserve it.

Heres the trailer. I didn't realize until the end that it is a facebook vr goggles exclusive game. Its also in first person and just does not look good. Voice acting doesn't sound good, either. https://youtu.be/ScM8ML79yYg?si=hauManXscUTftp_9
