Dear lord. La sigh.
Why?
Because, while I truly like the character, Batman is a walking plot device.
He has 'something' for every occasion. But just because you saw him use it in New 52 Batman #3 doesn't make it part of his standard gear. He has 'something' to solo Flash and Superman and Wonder Woman and God and our Lord Jesus Christ in his back pocket as well ...
He's got a ton of gear that could take care of Deathstroke with as well. Yet DS still kicks his arse more often than not. So ya, I'm sure he's got a 'super magnet' now. Let's see him pull it out a half dozen more times please before we consider it standard gear.
Give Batman prep, then you can assume he has it on him.
That's why.
He used it against thugs in a random encounter,he has nothing to solo Wonder Woman or Flash.He had a K-nite ring sometime ago.
Snyder is a proven writer,Batman does'nt use his gadgets much for the same reason Wolverine does'nt use his skill much.By the way when he first fought Deathstroke and got beaten he never really had such an impressive arsenal.Post-Knightfall is where is started to get ridiculous.
It's a part of his standard equipment period,he did'nt need prep in the situation where he used it.And no he has no gear which can take care of Slade,with the possible exception of the sonic device.
OK. I read Batman #3.
That was no random encounter.
He was ready to engage the Whisper Gang. He came prepared. He knew said gang was called the "Whisper Gang" because they wore metal masks on their faces for one full year to show their loyalty. He knew this. He also knew they controlled the fifth tunnel and came prepared to engage said gang - metal masks and all. His dialogue screams I CAME READY FOR YOU.
Like I said, this super magnet is not part of Batman's standard gear. Always why I prefer reading the book before commenting further as people interpret things in ways that reinforce their argument 99% of the time. Not faulting you for it, we all do it. Tis human nature. Again, that encounter was a prepped for encounter.
Except that they were just human thugs,if it was an actual non fodder chatacter (s) then i would have agreed.He has knowledge on all the gangs in Gotham,does'nt mean that he needs to keep a special something for each gang.
The super magnet is post new earth (flash point). The op says pre new earth. The magnet isn't here.
Makes no difference,Batman is Batman.His history has been mostly left untouched.
Your probably right but the op still says pre new earth, meaning technically we can't use it here.
He would have used it anyway,like i said there's no difference.The history is intact,Snyder is writing etc.
