Sup Forums, what if Bruce Wayne was a Mega City One citizen who becomes a judge after the murder of his parents?

He'd get booted out for refusing to execute a perp

he would be the law in that scenario so he would do it without problem

Are you implying that batman doest kill people because he's worried about breaking the law?

>being this casual
10 years, creep.

Yes, he also works with Gordon that wants things by the book. It's not like he didn't try to kill people too and was always stopped.

>le he is crazy meme

If anything that's the casual thing.

Being raised in MCO, and being on the side of the law, he definitely would be okay with it. I mean, did he ever object to legal death penalty in comics?

More like he didn't stay in tee Catholic school, he doesnt care about the Hippocratic oath of his father, didn't grow up around Buddhist masters.

Everything growing up made him respect life over anything else. In this escenario. That doesn't exist. So yes that guy is right, as a judge Bruce doesn't give a fuck about the santicity Of lifE

>le he is crazy meme
Miller's DD?

>Buddhist masters
Is buddhism illegal in Mega City One?

He doesn't like the death penalty or even abortions, but is a moral position not a part of his mission, O'Neil, Morrison, Miller and Dixon all portrait Bruce background as Catholic (Gotham is mostly Catholic even when writers like Alan grant usually go for the Episcopal road). Bruce rule comes from his training, past and trauma, but Bruce politics we're shaped by his parents long before that.

Thats the point, without all that there's no "rule". He would be a Normal judge

That was a question, actually, but from your post I'm assuming it is.
>Is all religion illegal?

Thats like the back story for 75% of the judge students.

It's been in a few issues, but Bruce is against capital punishment and the current prison system in the DCU as he believes in reform over punishment. He's spoken out about it a number of times how Blackgate makes more criminals than it reforms. At the end of the day, he believes there shouldn't need to be a Batman (He just can't cope with the fact he just creates more madmen as the batmjan). But the system is always against them in the DCU since Blackgate and Belle Rev are just government and supervillain recruiting grounds while corruption is ongoing. He just works on the edge of the law because without it, he's no worse than the criminals.

MC1, he'd work within the law. Death is frequent and life isn't as sacred due to overpopulation in the blocks of MC1. He'd probably be more like Joe Dredd himself who prefers to send people to the cubes, however. Though Bruce would do it out of a misguided sense of possible reform, while Dredd does it because the cubes are a fate worse than death and it sends a message the Judges can make things much worse than a quick bullet to the head.

>Gotham is mostly Catholic
That explains all the theft and pederasty crimes in the city.

He'd be less of a wuss.

Given how young Bruce was when his parents were killed (how old was he, traditionally?), how rich the Waynes are and the fact his only guardian is hired help, its quite likely that the Judges would try to get him adopted by the Academy of Law as a cadet, just like with America Beeny and Galen DeMarco.

His aversion to guns is going to get him into trouble, but there's nothing that drugs, surgery and psis can't fix. He'll do well with Applied Violence and investigation though.

8-10 years old

There are a few officially sanctioned religions the most popular being the Universal Church of Grud.
Basically the Judges don't care what you believe but if you start running your mouth and trying to gather followers they'll crack down on you.

Getting a bit old to be a Judge Cadet then, they tend to recruit at 5 and keep them training for the next fifteen years. They've taken older children occasionally though, and if someone high up in command thinks there's a good chance they'll be able to get the Wayne family fortune by taking him in they might push for it.

Bruce would be a bit old for the academy of law. Recruits typically start at at five but exceptions have been made in the past

Huh. Actually a judge that keeps a lawgiver on himself at all times because he has to, but never uses it and just punches people the fuck out would be an interesting concept.

Basically, this thread should be about "What if X became a judge"

So, what if Jimmy Olsen became a Judge. Silver Age Jimmy Olsen.

NO MUTIES

Silver Age Lois Lane?

Fits perfectly well into pre-apocalypse War mega city one, and usually gets dropped into cases involving the moronic fads of the Big Meg's cits. He eventually takes the Long Walk into the Cursed Earth, where he has even more wacky adventures.

Life sentence for leaking information from the force, and expelled from the force for getting overweight.

You're wrong.
In most incarnations he refuses to use guns because a revolver killed his parents. He refuses to kill because it's what distinguish him from criminals.
He hits, maims and inflicts property damage, even if those are illegal acts.
He beat dangerous individuals that didn't break any law.
He left some petty criminals go away.

Batman isn't about the law at all.
He still wouldn't use guns, and it would probably go like depicted it.

He'd fit perfectly in Wally Squad.

>isn't about the law
You're right, he is about justice.

exactly. On the other hand, Dredd is about the Law more than Justice.

>Life sentence for leaking information from the force
Standard is 20 years on titan.
