Growing up my favorite hero boy was Batman, but its getting really hard to appreciate a character whos main premise is "I'm a billionaire that beats up poor people in a capitalist hellscape because I don't have a healthy way to deal with my personal trauma".

Is there any saving him or is there a version of batman that can exist inside of a left narrative? Maybe there's an existing comic that has tackled this problem, but I'm not really deep into the...ahem...literature.

Maybe Ninja Batman?

    "The Superman-led Soviet Union has grown without resorting to war, and has virtually eliminated poverty, disease and the like"

    :party-sicko:

    "but this has started to infringe on individual liberties, and Superman is fast becoming a Big Brother-like figure. A brain surgery technique that turns dissidents into obedient drones, or "Superman Robots," is in use."

    :chumpsky: Randomly inserting anti communism because otherwise your stuff won't get printed is the worst. Also mentioning :1984: on the wiki is cringe libshit.
