Well, Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League has been around for a while now and has received many mixed reviews from folks. Alright, even though they were brainwashed by Brainiac, who would allow their favorite superheroes to be killed like that? And to be humiliated by their fierce enemies. No way.
Rocksteady took a significant gamble with this addition and now has to deal with harsh criticism. This may even cause some fans to stay away from the game. Even though its story is controversial, fans think that a member of the Justice League does not deserve such a weak ending, even if he is killed.
Batman’s Lackluster Ending Fuels Criticism of Suicide Squad
Now, let’s go back a little. The Justice League, once humanity’s best hope and protecting them from all threats, switched sides with Brainiac’s invasion. They are now under the control of supervillain Brainiac and are terrorizing Metropolis, tormenting people.
Yes, this seems like a coherent story considering the game’s name, and here, the help of Task Force X, also known as the Suicide Squad, is required. To end this disaster in Metropolis, Deadshot, Harley Quinn, Captain Boomerang, and King Shark launch a hunt, resulting in the deaths of some iconic DC superheroes, including Batman.
Meanwhile, it’s pretty acceptable for fans to control villains and hunt down their favorite superheroes to some extent. Considering the concept of killing Justice League members, this might even render criticism of Rocksteady meaningless. However, this lackluster ending for Batman caused pretty harsh comments from fans.
Even those who don’t like Suicide Squad members may have felt a little sympathy for them during this tough adventure. However, this sympathy, or you call it something else, deflated like a balloon after the scene where Batman was killed.
Well, the team somehow manages to capture Batman after a difficult effort. The bat, which is seriously injured and survives thanks to its armor, is shot in the head and killed by Harley Quinn. Of course, the exposure to Quinn’s ego, her humiliation of him, and the brutality of the way he died are the main stuff contributing to fans’ reactions.
Could There Be a More Noble Way To Kill Batman In Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League?
Actually, this is what all the folks are wondering. Does it make sense for Rocksteady Studios to give its own Batman such a weak ending? Yes, we’re definitely talking about the Dark Knight from its own Arkham games.
No doubt, a much classier ending could have been set for Batman. Still, it’s important to understand here that the developer thinks the bat is under the control of the supervillain Brainiac rather than his death.
A risk was taken here, and as a result, now they have to deal with harsh criticism from Batman fans. To be honest, Harley Quinn’s sarcastic words were very annoying for a Dark Knight fan.
