Batman Grabs a Gun: Difference between revisions

** There are numerous counter-examples (his 30s/40s1939-1940 version (now out of continuity) used a gun frequentlyoccasionally, and there are isolated stories here and there where he uses one as a threat or a tool), but as far as the spirit of the trope goes, Final Crisis is the only current in-continuity example of Batman using a gun with intent to harm/kill and going through with it, and even the current page image from ''Batman: Year 2'' had him not go through with it in the end thanks to circumstances outside of his control. In the [[Infinite Crisis|previous Crisis]], when [[Big Bad|Alexander Luthor Junior]] nearly killed [[Nightwing]], that was the [[Papa Wolf|last straw for Batman]]. He grabbed a nearby gun and was fully prepared to kill Alexander for everything he had done up to that point until [[Wonder Woman]] convinced him to back down.
