You have to remember his body is damaged and tired after all the years of fighting crime and receiving beatings from his enemies.

Muay Thai fighters usually retire at around 30 years old after such brutal matches. Batman in his 50’s is generous compared to what he’s done every night.

[@uberschnilthegreat22]

Younger people have looked older, it can be partially attributed to genes, but it mostly lies upon how you treat your body. Substance abuse as an example can REALLY make you look like you aged 30 years.

You've got to love Batman for doing what's right and dislike Superman for being a lackey of the regime.

[@TheOmegazerox]

I often think Bruce would say to Clarc how the mighty have fallen. That's why Batman rises again. He doesn't just do what people want or try to be a hero. He does what's rite and what people need not just what they want. Superman has had his shere of governmental clashes but He's a bit too much of a good guy to truly be do what is realy needed sometimes.

​@@tommyh-dk2cq People not seem to catch it. When the comet came out I was a teenager and I didn't realize that what I was looking at was the mythical story of Batman as an arc.

Robin in this one is a small tomboyish girl with no training and somehow she jumps around doing flips and beating guys 10 times her size.

This is literally just ‘the dark knight returns’ … a graphic novel that’s been around since 1986.

[@BarzOnTheWindow1]

Essentially the Dark Knight scenario, as told in the 1980’s

[@deadend1041]

It's the cartoon adaptation of those graphic novels. I'm surprised more people haven't caught on to the idea that the mutant leader was a stand in for bane because a character like that was needed in Batman's mythos but did not yet exist

[@jasonlloyd3335]

Shit on a stick. You surely realize The Dark Knight Returns original novels popularity was the catalyst for Burtons Batman being made and the inspiration for some of the Dark Knight. This is the OG that inspired not the other way around.

I thought he came back during his 60s and was retired for unknown reasons to not being the Batman anymore til alot of situations and circumstances and thieveries increases after no more the cape crusader to saving Gotham anymore til the decisions has to changed and come out of the shadows and save humanity from the wicked craziness sick common to new threats of people who harms not just the young people as young attractive women or girls but the elders too as IDK why old women are not so interesting yet they get in troubles than young women as before like I saw some of his movies but none told about his future of his elder age or 40s to current Batman Beyond era of is he still coming back no matter who what when where why and sometimes how many times it repeated his pains his burdens and the closest friends and family and others so dearest to him than anything else in the world has to be saved over and over and over endlessly til he's no more or his legacy is and will live on as legends
