I dunno*, if ever there were a symbol for reaction instead of proaction, it’s Batman. Punch their face, toss them in an “asylum”. Sometimes announce to noone in particular, “they’ll get you the help you need.” Like he actually believed it or is trying to convince himself, as if it wasn’t the 15th time he’d bloodied this guy’s face. Great detective, though.
*I’ve never read the comics
The superhero teams all get reactive names. Defenders, avengers, etc. Never instigators, proactors…
It’s as if initiative is evil. The only good is preservation of the status quo.
Wasn’t Bruce Wayne the proactive one? He built infrastructure, donated to charities, and started charities, right?
There’s no good billionaires, but Bruce was supposed to be interpreted as one, I thought.
You know, my question with the bat signal is, what do you do when it isn’t cloudy?
