Very interesting article on Tor.com deconstructing Batman/Bruce Wayne as a wealthy, elitist vigilante that wages war against the poor and disenfranchised. If you've never really read the Batman comics, it's kind of compelling. Though, I think the author is have a little tongue in cheek fun with the reader because of the over the top incendiary language and accusations. Be sure to read the comments because there are some pretty well thought out counter arguments there.
