I don't get it: Characterization Marches On

The Batman picture says Character Check more than this.

Does it? I don't see it, myself.

Hmm... the Batman pic seems JAFAAC also. I understand why batman doesn't like guns, but there is probably someone who doesn't. Maybe show a "Before-and-After" pic.

Here's a big WTH example for me:

Amanda "The Wall" Waller [1]◊

"Notice anything different?"

But Not Too Black, Fanservice Pack.

Find a more illustrative version of that and I would be fine with it.... as it is it just looks like Art Shift and the final panel a flashback to younger days.

Perhaps the caption should currently indicate the last panel is the latest interpretation of the character.

edit: Actually, the image itself indicates that.

Can you find panels where she is interacting with batman in them but differently?

Could we find a picture of Batman killing a villain (I think he used to in the early comics?) More people know his Thou Shalt Not Kill stance than Doesn't Like Guns...

I thought that Batman was on our very short list of characters who are actually iconic enough to have a measure of immunity to JAFAAC claims.

Batman is near universally recognizable, but I don't know if the specific "doesn't use guns" aspect of his character is.

Being universally recognizable doesn't mean all aspects of the character are. Superman is great for The Cape, but not for Favorite Color Is Blue. "Batman doesn't use guns" isn't universally known I don't think... but a good caption could fill that in?

Clock is set.

It's a good image, but maybe someone could get a higher-quality scan?

Clock's up. I pulled the Batman pic for not demonstrating enough of the trope and for being added without discussion. Locking up.
