    Pretty sure O’Neil Batman did exactly the same thing which is what King is referencing.

    So to be clear, Batman just killed the KGB Beast right?

    No more, or less than he killed Batman.

    Maybe we'll see him again in another 15 yrs.

    Really? Broke someone's neck and left them to starve in the snow with no chance of rescue? When? How did I miss this?


    Edit: I'm not being facetious. I would love to read the precedent.

    Not exactly the same thing in terms of every detail, but Batman did leave Beast locked in a room, presumably to starve to death.

    LOL

    Never realized there is such a fine line between a dramatic silent issue and a hog-calling contest

    I don't know why people are complaining about King building up a big story only to completely ruin it with an absolute horrible resolution. Didn't you read his "wedding" arc?? Total pay off.

    That's terrible.

    So, Batman code is I won't kill you directly, but I would let you die in a horrible way. How is he a better person with the second option?

    Lmao I should not have read this! I couldn’t get it out of my head when reading this issue
    It's the Dynamic Duo! Batman and Robin!... and Red Robin and Red Hood and Nightwing and Batwoman and Batgirl and Orphan and Spoiler and Bluebird and Lark and Gotham Girl and Talon and Batwing and Huntress and Azreal and Flamebird and Batcow?

    Since when could just anybody do what we trained to do? It makes it all dumb instead of special. Like it doesn't matter anymore.

    Oh yeah I remember that one. Steel bars against the door, right? It's harsh, but conceivably escapable.


    Breaking the neck and leaving him there still seems so out of character, to me at least.
