We can say that one of the best things about the character Batman brought to the DCU is the Bat-Family, or rather, the Bat-Family. However, a nightmare in “Batman: Noel” shows Bruce’s justification for creating the team and maintaining control over them.
The character Batman has a reputation for being a loner, but the fact is that he has never been alone. The Bat-Family has made considerable progress since Bruce tried to save Gotham City from the hands of criminals.
What seemed like just a mission ended up becoming a battle full of Robins and Batgirls to help fight crime.
A dark nightmare of the character may have unintentionally shown the hero’s thoughts for the projection of the Bat-Family. In “Batman: Noel”, written by Lee Bermejo, the character tries to capture the Joker on Christmas Eve.
After talking to Superman, Bruce returns to his famous Batmobile so that it can explode. This would be a Machiavellian move by the Clown Prince of Crime.
Much to Joker’s dismay, Batman manages to escape death, but his bell rings, giving Joker the opportunity to finish off his enemy.
During the fight, Batman gains and loses his consciousness, causing him to have a vision of a scenario in which he dies and Gotham City goes to the depths of hell. This dream is scary, as it is not so simple to see Bruce Wayne’s legacy as Batman lost due to extremely violent vigilantes.
Everything indicates that Batman intends to protect the city even more so that nothing he has dreamed of becomes reality. The character Bruce Wayne is focused on saving Gotham, but he is already aware that he will not live forever.
Indeed, Bruce will die someday, and when that happens, anyone can put a bat symbol on their chest and play at dispensing justice.
That’s why it’s important to reflect on how the Bat-Family can contribute to fighting crime in Gotham, but it can also exist solely for this task, which could leave its members in trouble in a future without Batman.
