Why not? You are. You can accept the city being cursed but the idea of bringing in magic to cure it is impossible?
The option you suggested was Bruce using riches to get otherworldly beings to fight otherworldly beings. Offering Thor 20 bucks (or 20 million even) to fight Satan is laughable because tf is Thor gonna do with 20 bucks?
And why can’t they move the asylum away from the portal to hell again? Fill that portal with concrete.
Because inevitably they’ll land on a Indian burial ground or chemical dump or NIMBY’s will oppose it, depending on how real we get.
Epstein was arrested and is now dead
And how many people in the files are? One of the more notable ones is the president now.
As for the police giving up why not hire some magic police or mutant police
Why be a magic cop for x dollars a year when they can be a magic criminal for 10x that? Also the legal wrangling for the property damage and civilian casualties from thrown cars and the like would be insane. Those cops would spend more time in courtrooms then on the street. May as well just pay every citizen to leave town, it’d probably be cheaper.
I’m saying in Batman’s world Batman should spend his money fixing things instead of being Batman, which clearly isn’t working.
Really feels like you’re being intentionally obtuse here.
By your metric every superhero and probably every comic book government agency should give up. Lex Luthor keeps doing Lex Luthor shit so Superman should just focus on carrying oil tankers past the Straight of Hormuz to keep gas prices low. Hulks villains keep coming back he should just make coal into diamonds for industry. All these super geniuses should cure cancer and give us unlimited clean energy instead of fighting Thanos. The list goes on.
We can’t call out Batman in comics without calling out every comic character who has some ability that would benefit the world that they instead use to punch baddies in the face. Batman just has one we can contextualize in our world more readily so smug dorks get all “hurr pay your taxes”
