Dark Night: Metal his trip in that event would have absolutely killed Bruce if the story treated him like a normal guy with no superpowers. He survives cataclysmic events even without any tech protecting him.
How do you figure? Damian died, Tim is kidnapped for months, Dick is shot in the head and taken hostage and has his identity revealed to the world, Alfred died. Bruce has taken blows but there's no way you can argue that the rest of the Batfamily is somehow being left comparatively unharmed.Probably Morrison's JLA. That accusation is so overblown and such a cheap and tired attack line. Batman has been put through the ringer for over the last decade plus, he has had no easy victories, been made to look as the biggest jerk/a-hole in the dcu and has become the whipping boy for the batfamily.
There's been like four seperate Justice League storylines since the New 52 that involved Batman being the last member of the Justice League still standing, as opposed to all those superpowered beings. It's never someone other then Batman.Accusations of Batgod are a lazy attack line when one doesn't have a legitimate or compelling argument to make against Batman, it's returning to a dried up well. Any objective reader can see that there has been no sightings of Batgod in forever. Just read King's run and Tynion's current run as proof of that.
You don't get to dismiss The Batman Who Laughs as a parody, he is the main antagonist of the DCU currently. Where at other times there might be Luthor or Darkseid, currently we got TBWL, he is taking the spot where otherwise we might have a more serious character and he should be evaluated as such.And Synder's The Batman Who Laughs is not evidence, that character is a parody and a mcguffin who serves to fit an over the top narrative. He should not even be seen as a real character.
