Title: Batman Revealed! - And he's a local!
Post by: Sir Brian on 2012-03-29, 17:27:49

I think we can all totally relate with this man! Especially this part:

Quote

“Eventually, it sinks in and you become him,” Batman told me. “It feels like I have a responsibility that’s beyond a normal person. And that responsibility is to be there for the kids, to be strong for them, and to make them smile as much as I can.” He understands that might sound corny, but he doesn’t care.

Huzzah and well done Lenny!  :)

Yeah, I think this guy is awesome. I'd love to start doing some knightly appearances at childrens' hospitals and the like (can't let all the superheroes and stormtroopers have all the fun).

I'm just worried I'd scare all the kids. lol :)

Nah, kids love the Knight. The local kids always look for me come Holloween, or any other event I wear my armour too. They alwasy ask the best questions as well :)

Best thing I've ever seen from a Batman movie: "People need dramatic examples to shake them out of apathy, and I can't do that as Bruce Wayne. As a man, I'm flesh and blood. I can be ignored, I can be destroyed. But as a symbol … as a symbol, I can be incorruptible. I can be everlasting."

I definitely like this guy. I know I can relate; as a person, I can be ignored or pushed aside. As a knight, I'm no longer just a person, I'm a symbol, a small part of a much greater whole, and that cannot be easily ignored. What he's doing is awesome. My childhood friend might be coming to see us at VARF; he has a 1, 2 and 4 year old. I'm curious what they'll think of us in armor. :)

Excellent! May I suggest that you use one of those forms Sir Edward made up and you can make your friends 4 year old a page of the order! ;)
