But there's ways, obviously, creatively around that to do whatever and have Terry find the suit and we go off on that. And that's the story we get with Bruce in his ear. Maybe it's an AI or something.

No, I think that's such... I mean, like, first off, I know James Gunn, when he took power, originally said that, oh, yeah, the games would tie in, too, and then they've walked that back probably because they saw the train wreck that they have at their feet here and, like, how stupid an idea that is if it just doesn't... I mean, it can make sense in the way that... It's in the DC multiverse.

Like, you know what I mean? Like, yeah, there's corn sweat over there and then there's whatever's happening over here. But I would not do that. And I think, yeah, stepping away from that would make a lot of sense and could be super cool, right? I think a, I do think there's a room for a, hey, we're doing a Batman year one game. right?

I mean, like, let's have it be like he is going out on his first missions and he's in, like, the cloth suit, right? And so, like, the upgrade path is building a better Batsuit, figuring this out, you know, unlocking this, learning new fighting stances and things as you go through it, do it.

That could be really cool. And then I think the other, you gotta go away from what Arkham is, right? But I don't think you go away from what Arkham is as much as, like, Gotham Knights does, where you're not Batman at all, right? Where it's like, That's not what people's power fantasy is, right?
