    In my opinion, Batman is morally justified in his reasoning for not committing murder due to the balance he has between Utilitarianism and Kantianism. To Batman, killing is an immoral act that hurts not only the victim but also the killer. Every murder is wrong because it removes one more person from the world and creates another murderer. It’s the consequences that Batman avoids, but he does so because of how he values human life. Many stories involve Batman convincing criminals out of committing murder; he would not have the same impact if he were known to kill his enemies.…

Freud would say that not only were Bruce’s dreams forms of symbolism, but also, more significantly and recognizably, Batman’s Batsuit and name. As previously stated, Bruce came up with the batsuit when seeing a swarm of bats. He then decided on the name because he felt that villains would also fear bat, as they are a symbol of the night. Another form of analysis that Freud could make about Batman and his life is by using his idea of the doctrine of opposites.…
