    I found Ras Al Ghul quite massive impact on Bruce's life. I mean obviously he's a in many ways a father figure, as well as a mentor

    While Joker is Batman’s archenemy, Ra’s makes a perfect respectable nemesis, similar to Charles Xavier and Magneto.
  • If Ras Al Ghul and Frank Castle had met, I’d be very intrigued

    Anyone else notice falcone in any version always remind you of any modern politician. On either side of the isle
  • Your channel is really binge worthy and underrated thank you for all these videos! I'd like to request Cutting from Gangs of New York and Amy from Gone Girl if you're still open to suggestions. Thanks again!

    Henry Duccard, (Ra's), had I think noble intentions, that had become misguided. What he was really trying to do was eliminate human imperfection, which is impossible because everyone is flawed. And as far as the him, or maybe rather the League Of Shadows being responsible for the circumstances that brought about Thomas and Martha Wayne's deaths, since it isn't revealed if he was a member at the time or not, the League showed it was no better than the people it fought against, and I think the League played on Ra's desire for revenge. To be truly good, you cannot knowingly contribute injustice or circumstances that cause further pain and suffering, otherwise you have no moral high-ground on which to stand, yet the League did such. I have a feeling that Henry, (Ra's), was a man of questionable moral character, given he was mercenary beforehand, and the League was able to exploit his flaws and whatnot and turned him into someone truly horrifc... similar to as the Joker said to Batman toward the end of The Dark Knight, when speaking of how he corrupted Harvey Dent: "I took Gothom's White Knight, and brought him down to our level. It wasn't difficult. Madness, as you know, is like gravity, all it takes is a little push."

    That's a neat take on Ra's keep up the good work, I'll be around to see what else you come up with, but also hope you get to different kind of Villains like Jinx, Gorr, etc...

    There's people online that like this Ra's al-Ghul(except with Gotham City replaced by Deviantart in their cases) though they're not necesarrily too pessimistic to looks forward new deviantart alternatives
  • Indeed Ras & Batman are 2sides of the same coin. But Batman wont cross that KILL Line.
