Why does he have so many sidekicks?
Why does he have so many hangers-on? Because he's the goddamn Batman.
>>80750224
Long-running and lucrative IP with an inability to ignore hack contributions to the continuity results in this.
CRISES ARE DESIGNED TO TRIM THIS KIND OF FAT OFF, PEOPLE
>>80750224
Because the only partner he needs is Gordon.
Because he's loner.
Forgot someone Op.
>>80750224
Most of these people aren't even his sidekicks, just people who are tangentially related to him and exist in Gotham's mini-universe. Also a number of them don't even exist in the same continuity.
>>80750224
>only one of them is black
>>80750687
why should Batman have a black sidekick?
>>80750224
Todd, Grayson, Damien, Drake, and Brown are the only legit sidekicks
Just because you work with someone doesn't make you a sidekick
the truth is that Batman is DC's only lucrative character aside from Justice League comics so they need to have as many 'Batmans' as possible
Do you not understand the meaning of the word minority?
>>80750450
I think shes gonna die at the end of BR:E
>>80750224
Terry is from the future he shouldn't be there
>>80750963
Keep dreaming, wafflefag.
>>80750224
because they all die.
>>80750224
Because he prefers to work alone.
>>80750224
besides the obcious that bruce wayne is a pedo who is always looking for a new kid to put into a skin tight suit
its because he is also very lonely and you need a decent number of people to have a proper christmas party
>>80750224
So he can cry about how lonely he is.
Daily reminder that the Bat Family was perfect before Flashpoint.
>>80750224
>Terry is still the only one I can stand
What happened, Batman
>>80750224
Every writer trying to leave their mark by introducing the "totally new" next character
>>80750224
Moon Knight get out of the picture no one likes you
>>80750224
We can't let him keep on getting away with it!
>>80750687
Nigga, they're all wearing black.
>>80750224
He Incorporated. This allows him to expand into untapped markets, such as orphanages.
>Alfred
>Sidekick
No
>>80754379
Filename says "Bat Family" so he needs to be there.
>>80750224
As long as crowbars exist, there will be a sidekick ...
Who are black batman, the two other batgirls and purple moon knight supposed to be?
Continuity was a mistake
>>80755338
Huntress, Batwing, BlackBat (Cassie), Red Robin (Tim), Batwoman (Kate), Robin (Damian), BIG DADDY, Nightwing, Batdirl (Babs), Red Hood (Jason), Spoiler (Steph), Batman Beyond (Terry), What's it all about ... Alfie
>>80750224
>Alfred
>A sidekick
>>80756292
wut?
source?
>>80751107
I like that I understood that.
Also Batman and Batwoman make everything else obsolete, including Batgirl. But, sales to teens, I guess?

Always gets me.
>>80750224
because Batman is an idea and ideas infect other people
>>80750224
The really crazy part is that only, like, 3 of these dudes are operating at once. If the whole Batfam was out at night Gotham would be a changed city.

The First Rule of Batman is that he's never been alone.

>tfw still no ongoing Terry book
Does Terry even count as a sidekick anyway?
>>80750687
He was also the lowest selling of all the Nu52 spin offs. By far.
It's probably coincidence.
>>80756458
OKAY, WHERE IS THAT SCENE!
WHERE ALFRED SELLS HIS SOUL IN ORDER TO KICK SUPERMAN ASS!
>>80760856
Something something shitty costume and name.
Sonething something token black
Just an awful character.
>>80760856
It wasn't because he was black,it's because of Luke Fox
>>80761945
>Implying David's run didn't sell like shit
Come on, man. He barely made it over 30K with the Court Of Owls bump. Even Talon did better than that.
Luke came in when the series was sub 12K, it's not like he sank the ship.
>>80756436
Batwoman is a strong independant woman though, and isn't a sidekick in continuity. She is a mary sue hero
>>80762149
Still his comics were so boring. I was reading the first volume, and my only reaction is "so what? Why should I care about an african warlord doing warlord things?" It only appealed to a niche of a market that doesn't read comics, or cant afford to pay for them
