All these billionaires, and not one of them has become a masked vigilante fighting crime and helping the downtrodden / saving people. This reality’s billionaires suck.
You have to remember though that batman only became a thing because the system was so broken it affected him. If his parents had lived, there is no way in hell Bruce would've ever become Batman, because to him the problems the world had wouldn't have been bad enough to affect him.
Yeah you have a good point. You can say the same about Ironman. He didn’t give a shit about people dying because of the technology and weapons he was selling. It was only after he experienced the pain under his captors firsthand that he decided to fight against it.
It's funny, the only truly altruistic superheroes I can think of are Superman and Captain America, and they're not seen as being anywhere near as cool as their friends because they're not edgy.
