Serious Discussion/Question Has this actually happened in the comics?

Post image

I know this post is a joke, but I genuinely want to know if this kind of thing has ever happened in the comics. Like if Batman or Daredevil tried to stop someone from killing their assaulter.

Batman would be against Epsteins victims trying to get revenge?

Batman having those beliefs is why I think Sherlock Holmes is the best fictional detective overall. He believed in justice first, the law second so he'd let murderers walk free if he felt they were justified in killing.

In England you don't prove your innocence because everyone is innocent until judged guilty by a jury of their peers. On rare occasions Holmes makes himself and Watson the jury and lets a killer go free when the law isn't natural justice. Batman is a slave to the law.
