captainlordauditor: midnight-revelation: despicabledeadpool: Dude, he’s like, the ultimate philanthropist Gotham, before Bruce Wayne returns to it, is literally falling apart and he all but single-handedly provides the funds necessary to maintain the infrastructure of the city. He keeps the hospitals up and running, prevents the schools from shutting down, keeps Gotham Police Department functional, and keeps organized crime out of Blüdhaven by rebuilding it and revitalizing the job sector. Philanthropic billionaire Bruce Wayne is responsible for this, not The Dark Knight Batman. He had absolutely no obligation to do any of this. He didn’t have to start The Martha Wayne Foundation or The Thomas Wayne Foundation or Wayne Medical or Wayne Industries. He did it because to save Gotham, it would take more than just Batman beating up on the bad guys, stopping organized crime, and getting rid of corrupt officials. Saving a city from crime means nothing if the city and its people are in physical and financial ruin when all is said and done. Doesn’t this statement assume that the current infrastructure running Gotham is not equally if not more fucked up as it is in every other large city in the US? In canon at one point Bludhaven did a clean up of the police force and fired around half its officers. And that’s just the ones they were able to prove were corrupt. Like, they were at the point where they needed vigilantes to function because they straight up didn’t have enough people any more because they were all on the take for the mob. Who’s to say Gotham is any better? -- source link
