*ahahaha* LJ is sending me comment notifications at laaast.
On the Bruce-nose thing -- I think that's why so many people are more fond of the original toonverse design for Bruce than the redesign they busted out for GK/TNBA (and JL/JLU). That was a Bruce who had BEEN THROUGH STUFF.
McDaniel also did it with Bruce -- iirc, the stuff pre-Murderer in BATMAN comes to mind -- but... yeah. Mostly? I'm okay with Bruce looking terrifyingly perfect. It... suits the mythos? In a way? Kind of?
I can *see* him being a scarred-up 25 year old or something, and deciding to put himself through massive amounts of plastic and reconstructive surgery *to protect the secret*.
