Commissioner James Gordon is the latest victim of DC's destruction of Batman
The desecration of Bill Finger and Bob Kane's Batman continues, as Comic Book Club Live reveals what goes on in one of the latest stories:
After teasing that someone is claiming to be a secret Wayne sibling — again — Dr. Leslie Thompkins reveals to Bruce Wayne that yes, indeed, Thomas Wayne had an affair back in the day, though no baby came of it. But that’s not even the biggest twist in the issue. While investigating the death of the mayor of Gotham City, the killer is revealed as… Jim Gordon, who pulls a gun on Batman.Well I'm not interested in seeing if this is an imposter. Mainly because DC's proven (and Marvel has too) with Identity Crisis that they're more than perfectly willing to forcibly shoehorn characters who are on the good side into horrific roles of criminals without any clear explanation, and no interest in changing a bad situation to repair it. What DC's doing now is not novel, and it's definitely not appealing. It's just blatant destruction and deconstruction of classic creations for the sake of shock value that doesn't lead anywhere but way down into the abyss. And what's been done to Bruce Wayne's father is not appealing either.
