"No one man should have all that power" is the first line of Power by Kanye West. And Coates explicitly called that out as a theme and touchstone for the arc in an interview.

Beneath the cowl is a terrified little boy that the sentient embodiment of Fear in the universe considers his main disciple on Earth. I think it's interesting that for a dude who loves Batman so much, he wrote the dude as broken as he did. Outside of the one panel where he has a Sinestro ring forced on him, it's kinda the only honest depiction of Bruce. MisterBibs fucked around with this message at 20:40 on Apr 6, 2016 |

I am amused that Batman is paranoid enough to think that the woman he's seeing is a robot, but not enough to assume that someone building robot spies would spring for real hair. That's even the easiest part of real people to get!

I liked that bit better when Brent Spiner did it for a decade. I mean, I'm sure The Vision is a great book and all, but him going to 'beep-boop i am a robot man' is way less fun to me than how Waid's playing him in Avengers.

It's obviously due to both the Skrulls we're familiar with and Thanos having Deviant DNA from the Celestials' grand experiments. Hank Pym is such a fraud.
