The "I won't kill you, but I don't have to save you" is a creation of that movie. Most interpretations of Batman outside the films for awhile now believes inaction and being directly involved with the killing to be the same thing. In Arkham Knight he does a similar thing, letting Ra's die is phrased as "taking a life" when he talks through it with Alfred. As to why that's the case I'm not sure.

I personally like the black mask twist, even though it’s a somewhat overused device. I love the joker and could go on about him but as far this game/ the games go, this one is the most dangerous I think. He’s young and just loving the chaos and the violence. He’s not even evil really; he kills those thugs without any mercy and understands what kind of people they are. No moral sides, just wants to watch the world burn.

It's so crazy that origins is my favorite game. It's just too good bro, the boss fights were perfect, in my opinion they portrayed the beginning of batman too well and it was just so perfect, the beginning of batman and how aggressive he is, he is so angry and young. And using roger was the best option for a younger batman, the beginning of a relationship with the villians and batman and them beginning to fear him and especially the relationship with bane or joker with batman. They portrayed the beginning of a great rivalry between joker and batman just too good. And then you can see that the joker will start to know batman better and he knows his weaknesses, like he didn't know that batmam would not kill anyone and he tried to break him. So joker was the best in origins and had the best design as a younger joker. The story was perfect, especially bane and batman and how they knew each other. I love origins and I don't care what anyone says, it is so underrated just because of a stupid reason that rocksteady didn't make it. The Deathstroke and bane boss fights still gives me chills till this day, they don't appreciate this game much. It's definitely top 2. I understand opinions but they really should pay attention to this game more. That mission in the hotel royale is still the best mission in the series. It was perfect how you go from the sewers to the hotel and you do detective and predator stuff and you see the joker scene where he kills electrocutioner and you get his gloves, and you have to make your way up to the hotel, it was perfect. And then going to the bane fight while joker is watching. And you go save joker and actually this game really did the backstory of batman and joker justice. You can see how deep joker is. That's why I just love origins, and to point out origins was the first arkham game I played that's why I love it, it introduced me to the series. And it's the prequel so it was perfect to play first. The best joker, the best boss fights, the best character designs, the best character development, the best incantation of the villians, the perfect song, the best bruce wayne and Alfred portrayel. Hating this game is a crime.

I agree, *Origins* is the game that made me really take notice of Firefly, and start specifically looking at comics issues/storylines in which he plays a role. Before that I mainly knew him from Batman:TAS and "2004 The Batman" in particular, in which I really enjoyed him. *Batgirl: Year One* in which he teams up with Killer Moth is a favorite of mine, it's great that Garfield Lynns will be the main villain of her first movie! Speaking of C-listers assassins, I've just watched this video after the Arkham Asylum one, and _Always Nerdy_ never makes mistakes that I notice, but he did potentially make a small one about Black Spider. I'm fairly certain that the Black Spider from *Origins* is not the vigilante Eric Needham, but the second Black Spider to take up the mantle, Johnny LaMonica. Eric died during "Batman: Assault on Arkham", which is *Arkham* canon, but it's not important since the movie is taking place after *Origins* The reason why I believe it's Johnny, is that his first appearance in the comics is during a Black Mask storyline, "Batman: War Paint" in which Roman Sionis hires the assassin (this Black Spider isn't a vigilante, but a straight up killer for hire) to ruin Bruce Wayne's life and then kill him. The issues in which he appears have the most badass covers ever! The catch is that there is a twist; so, spoiler warning if you want to read it yourself first... . .. ... .. . Black Spider is revealed to have been a traitor sent by a rival crime boss to infiltrate Black Mask's gang, the False Face Society, and kill Sionis. This could be the "meta" reason why he has been rejected as a potential assassin, a bit of an in-joke for Batman fans who know that he ends up betraying Roman in the comics. (It's my headcanon at least)

I always thought that it would have been far more effective from a narrative standpoint if Bane lost his memory from the extended period where he was 'dead' because of Batman. IE; lack of blood circulation to his brain. This 'saves' Bruce Wayne's secret identity, but at the cost of Bane's actual identity. The price Batman must pay to abide by his one rule is another man's intellect, which might reinforce Bruce's desire to save all of these villians by reforming them. He needs to make that the sacrifice worth it in the end, as if to redeem himself for the convenience it provides him. This also ties Bruce and the Joker together even more, since they now have a shared responsibility for Bane's ultimate fate. Joker set up the joke and Batman delivered the punchline. If every good Batman villain casts a mirror on our protagonist, then the permanently brain-damaged Bane would always be a painful reminder of Bruce's inability to find a clean 'third possibility' to Joker's dilemma.

That is an intriguing interpretation of the story! The idea that Bane could lose his memory due to the extended period where he was "dead" adds an interesting layer to the narrative. It highlights the consequences of Batman's actions and the challenges that he faces in trying to uphold his no-kill rule. The idea that Bruce's secret identity is "saved" at the cost of Bane's intellect is a compelling one and adds complexity to Bruce's motivations. The idea of Bruce being driven to reform the villains in order to make his sacrifices worth it is an interesting one, and it ties into the larger theme of redemption that is present in the Batman universe. The concept of the Joker and Batman having a shared responsibility for Bane's fate further highlights the interconnectedness of the characters in the story and the consequences of their actions.

Note that all of the rejected assassins--Cheshire, Black Spider, and David Cain--all have some sort of attachment, family, code of honor, or boundaries in the comics that may make them a bit more moral than the assassins Joker would probably desire. Cheshire and David Cain both have daughters (Cassandra would even become Batman's adoptive daughter) and in Cheshire's case, she even fell for a superhero. Black Spider, meanwhile, isn't so much an outright villain as he is a lethal vigilante. I'd imagine that Black Spider in the Arkhamverse might want to leave a fellow vigilante alone unless Batman interfered with his mission. Joker, however, is the kind of guy who propagates and feeds on chaos and would likely use people without such restraints as those heroes, so as to better build up that chaos. Except for Lady Shiva, whose true mission for Ra's al Ghul was probably secret even to Joker, everyone else in the villainous cast doesn't have attachments or (in Bane's case) ends up obsessed with beating Batman to the point of voluntarily taking potentially deadly drugs to carry out his mission.

It's interesting to see the differences in motivations between the characters in the Arkhamverse and how they are depicted. It's clear that the writers wanted to show the varying degrees of morality and ethical considerations among the villains. The attachment, family ties, codes of honor, and boundaries of some characters, such as Cheshire, Black Spider, and David Cain, set them apart from someone like the Joker, who is more focused on causing chaos and destruction. It adds depth to the story and makes the characters more complex and believable.

So Having the origin of how this relationship started, is how this series should start in my opinion.

The story feels grounded and solid and didn't feel like it came from a comic book too much and the angrier version of Batman I feel is the way Batman should be not to the point where he just loses control but there certainly shouldn't be no monotoned pussyfooting around. Kevin Conroy will always be a legend but I feel Roger Craig Smith does a superior job when it comes to the Arkham games. Kevin Conroy is great in his own way but I just like the style Roger brought in Origins MUCH better. He made Batman feel scary and intimidating which is how Batman should feel. Kevin doesn't bring that same energy he's more calm and gentle which doesn't make for a very intimidating Batman but a good Bruce Wayne. Just my thoughts.
