Batman and King Arthur
Paladin of Gotham
by Matthew Snee
Afterword:
Batman can do ALMOST anything.
That's what I've realized during the writing of my first, complete, Batman story. Now that I'm done, I already feel dissatisfied with some of the decisions he made, and the moral quandaries he failed to solve. And I've realized:
Batman can't do EVERYTHING. But he can do ALMOST anything.
I think what I've written is a younger Batman, who isn't as wise as he's going to be, or as strong as he's going to be, or as determined as he's going to be. He's just in the first decade of his mission, I think, before Robin, before a lot of things, and I think when he thinks back on this adventure, he will realized he failed greatly in many ways.
But that's how life works, and how we learn. I've learned a lot, and Batman has learned a lot, and that's the way it is.
In the future, I plan to give him the same moral quandaries, but hope he comes up with better answers.
Thanks for reading.
