9 Times Batman Broke His One Rule And Killed

4. Kicked Some Guys Into A Fire... Then Has Sex (All-Star Batman & Robin, The Boy Wonder, Vol. 1)

In this issue, Batman jumps a group of thieves who are stealing a shipment of bleach (yeah, bleach). After scaring them witless, his opening gambit is to combine a bottle of the flammable stuff, combine it with some thermite from his utility belt and throw it at them, which instantly sets them all on fire.

While they're all on fire, Batman still feels the need to beat the crap out of them - while fellow Justice League member Black Canary watches on and gets aroused by the whole thing (seriously). The pair then do what any other normal pair would do - they have sex next to a pile of burning corpses. That's normal, right?

Is it becoming a bit more clear that Batman is actually a bit of a murderous b**tard yet?
