Rather than kill The Batman, Harley Quinn should have saved him in this game. By doing so she would have earned his respect, The Dark Knight telling her something like "You got smart, Harley, keep it up!" That would have been the perfect evolution to Harley's character in the Arkham series. After blindly falling for the Joker in Arkham Origins, then becoming his lapdog in "Asylum" and "City," and then helplessly seeking cheap replacements in "Knight," finally having her become her own person to the degree that she earns Batman's respect in the fifth Arkham game would have been the perfect evolution, considering that she was never regarded highly by The Dark Knight because she, truth be told, was never too smart. But no, they had her kill Batman and tarnish the legacy of both Kevin Conroy and Arleen Sorkin in one big blow.... (Sigh).... What a waste!
flash tells wonder woman that she'll have to kill them - game is trash but that plot point could stand if we want to have a impact so harley actually trying to save batman and in the end having to kill him after a bloody battle and tears in eyes with batman acknowledging that she can be more than joker's punching bag would be THE moment for her but no everything touched by woke turns to shit
This was a great video, and I am glad you are talking about this matter, because when I saw the videos and comments that other people were doing in the days after the Batman death scene, and I saw all the hate being vented into the formerly beloved character of Harley Quinn, I thought exactly the same things. And this goes beyond whether the Batman is really dead or not in that game, he may return, but the damage of making all of us see that scene has already been done. Once that has happened, it remains for us to see past the veil of lies that situations like these throw over us, and see beyond into our memories and hearts to find the true respect and love we hold for the actors and actresses that have been part of our lives since childhood. I remember Arleen Sorkin and have mourned her like I did Kevin Conroy, and no game like that is going to make me forget her acting, the character she gave life to, and her beloved legacy. Thank you for this video.

Thank you for this video.
You are, of course, most welcomed.
Great video. I completely agree with you. It’s sad to see the fruit of Arleen’s labour and passion sacrificed in the name of identity politics.
