Lobok posted:He was threatening them, not torturing them (well, debatable with the shoulder injury guy). The head dude knows Batman won't kill so Batman scares him into cooperating. Isn't that what he does? The head dude also knows that Batman knows exactly how much he can torture someone before they die.

Android Blues posted:Daredevil could also just be wrong. Like, what is he, the Handbook to the Marvel Universe? You expect every hero to keep up on the intricacies of which Foolkiller is which, they'll never have time to stop muggings. That's probably why Deadpool published all those villain cards.

Synthbuttrange posted:I still enjoy Black Summer even if it wasnt what I wanted it to be. Looking back on it now, it really is about how seductive the superhero is as a power fantasy is. Ellis had some words about that. It's kinda funny how there's basically just one guy drawing all the Avatar comics.
