Caped Crusader

We know that #Batman is genuinely valiant but more recent renditions of the fable have advanced the notion that this hero is touched by an unhealthy dose of villainy. Does it make the character seem more real or might it simply allow us to be more comfortable in our own skin?

Is driving an oversized pickup truck heroic? What if you slap the dark knight's sticker on the back? Perhaps it works for this driver but we have concluded that the owner is mostly villain and very little super hero.

We imagine that this commuter does more tooling around town than hauling loads of cargo down dusty mountain sides, no matter what image the advertisements sell.
