You're wrong! Batman and Robin will never die!
You're wrong! Batman and Robin will never die!
The former part did happen in Wonder Woman '77 not to long ago.I definitely believe that Adam West Batman eventually retired and left the crimefighting to Dick, while he settled down with either Catwoman, Lisa Carson or a reformed henchwoman.
Now, you have a group of people who want Bruce to die for good when they could just start reading something else.Back in the day, people read Batman comics, moved on, and then a new generation enjoyed the adventures of Bruce Wayne.
Though it wouldn't be a stretch to believe there other comic readers who do (and other types of readers that did at one time or another).I don't want Bruce to die. I want him to have a more balance hero/civilian life and not be obsessed with his mission to the point of destroying so many other relationships in his life. Particularly the ones with his kids. And also to stop treating his allies (who used to be his friends once upon a time) so very poorly and with so much derision.
That's kinda sad. I'm a completionist and I want Batman's story to be completed. Or else I won't be able to read it all

I don't care about the story ending - I don't expect it to ever reach a point where Bruce retires. What I was getting at when I started this thread was not Bruce actually retiring - it was that concept that in-universe he was psychologically incapable of ever retiring. That his demons or drive wouldn't let him and he could only ever die in the suit in that abstract future that we'd never see. That people said it was out of character for him to retire in the movie. Trying to figure out when, for most of the people (writers or fans), the idea that Bruce would never contemplate retiring at some age took over. Because, as I said, for a long while the idea that he would retire in the distant "someday" was very much on the table. Not definite, necessarily, but it was treated a very real possibility in Bruce and other characters' minds.
Time does not moove in comics increments never lerger then 8 months but not a year
children a frowned upon becasue children grow and that means time must too
Thats why I love Titans time can not be ignored
Probably when Ben Affleck played him. People were not used to an older burnt out Batman with grey hair.
