Sigh... I guess it's really a case of each to their own.
I get Bats is the most dominant DC property and as such, from a profit generating angle, would be used across all genres of DC storytelling.
That said, I do appreciate what DC has done in trying to please people like me by having some traditional stories told now and again, even if they are out of continuity - The Imposter, One Dark Knight, Earth One etcetera.
Even found the Batman's Grave to be a good tale (for the most part) though not for the limited tech used (cos there was a lot!) but for the fact that there was no Bat-Fam.
Yeah... these two examples are sweet spots and it would be nice if they were used as the cap. Perhaps just modernize the tech to match real-world applications.
While I have enjoyed several JL stories with Bats as a member, I'd actually prefer him not to be a one and merely consult for them.
