Do you have a dumb question that you're kind of embarrassed to ask in the main thread? Is there something you're just not sure about?
This is your opportunity to ask questions. No question too simple or too silly.

Notes -
There is a way to fix this, actually, and ironically they've kinda implemented the fix but without removing the stupid patch (at least not fully).
The way to fix it is to not have endless continuity. Either go make a new property (stories are supposed to end, y'know...), or keep reanimating this one without continuity. That lets you kill the bad guys and resolve the problem. Of course, while e.g. the Nolan films did actually kill off most of the villains (Ra's/Two-Face/Maroni/Bane/Talia all die; Joker presumably came down with a bad case of "resisting arrest"; Falcone's a vegetable, Catwoman lives and I think Scarecrow's left hanging), they still kept unexplained No-Kill Batman.
Young sees the problem, but he bizarrely says "get over it" rather than "50-year continuities suck actually, don't do them". So I don't actually think it's a "very good essay".
