“I never really subscribed to the idea that Bruce was insane or unhealthy. As I’ve said before, Bruce Wayne’s physical and psychological training regimes (including advanced meditation techniques) would tend to encourage a fairly balanced and healthy personality. Bruce Wayne would have gone mad if he HADN’T dressed as a bat and found a startling way to channel the grief, guilt and helplessness he felt after the death of his parents. Without Batman, Bruce would be truly screwed-up but with Batman he becomes mythic, more than human and genuinely useful to his community. I believe he began to slay his demons the moment he became a demon.”
NERD ALERT: Grant Morrison sums up what sucks about Christian Bales’ joyless, not-that-smart portrayal of Batman. Sure, he can have moments of doubt, but being Batman or Bond or Rorschach or Spider-man isn’t just a compulsion or a chore, it’s a thrill that makes these their lives livable.

“One morning, over at Elizabeth’s beach house, she asked me if I’d rather go water-skiing or lay out. And I realized that not only did I not want to answer THAT question, but I never wanted to answer another water-sports question, or see any of these people again for the rest of my life.”
