Looks like Batman isn’t the only one with his own Credit Card. Now Princess Celestia is sporting the Alicorn Credit Card for when she needs to make those emergency purchases. XP
Taking that into account it does make the idea of a Batman credit card even more ridiculous. Even if it was just meant as a brief joke. (And a bad one.)
Heck Celestia having her own would make more sense.
Also, I know I’m double posting here, but I forgot to add this.
Even the bank employees would be on-board with ousting/revealing Batman’s account, because in the world of superheroes, that is literally one of the most valuable assets in existence.
Even if the accountant or bumbling bank employee didn’t know who Batman actually was, just having access to his account information would mean that they could screw him HARD. “Hey, there’s lots of famous supervillains in this universe. I wonder how many of them would like access to Batman’s account? Probably all of them. I could make a mint off of this!”
Again, the idea of a bat credit card is ridiculous. Completely and utterly ridiculous. It would leave a trail for others to follow, which Bruce is (or “should be”, the movie notwithstanding) too smart to allow to happen.
Part of the point of Bruce’s character is that he isn’t a corrupt corporate executive and doesn’t launder money, yo. In the comics, he even goes so far as to get the corrupt executives out of the Wayne business.
Ignoring that, let’s follow the logic that he could have an offshore account. While some people in real life can do this and not get caught, they’re often unseen people working for other people or people that are just low-profile enough to magnificently pull it off.
But Batman opening his own account? Even Switzerland would raise an eyebrow at that. And it would make it the highest profile account on the planet. Literally everyone would want to know what’s in it or attempt to gain access to it, which would end up a detriment to Batman’s secret identity as Bruce.
While probably does carry some cash it’s probably only a few thousand dollars, and he probably uses a bank he created just for his Batman related dealings, he launders money all the time would make sense if he had a private bank for that and just connected the card there,
I think you’re underestimating the enormous number that is a billion. Bruce is implied to have multiple billions too. The point being, Bruce could easily afford to carry around crap-tons of money around on the fly, even while dressed as the caped crusader. And anyway, how many times have we even seen Batman use bribery tactics in order to win over an opponent? He’d sooner kick the stuffing out of them than he would open his checkbook.
But let’s go further anyway. I’m drinking and this is fun.
With a credit card, Bruce would need to open an account. As Batman. And he would need to manage that account. As freaking Batman. And he would have to be reachable by the bank, that way they can contact him whenever said account came into question, AS FREAKING BATMAN! No matter how you slice this cake, the result is ridiculous.
Edited because: left out a word, my bad
Who can’t always use that money while wearing his costume without giving himself away, how easy would it have been for Ultra Humanite to figure out that Bruce and batman are the same person if batman’s bribe was paid by Bruce?
Large amounts of money.
Billionaire playboy.
That is stupid, the point of the card would be to make large amounts of money available in circumstances where it’s needed, guy being uncooperative but legally not required to be? offer to pay off his kids college, need a few bottles of floor cleaner to stop the villains plan but can’t run back to the cave for it? just buy it at the nearest store, anyone who can’t see the value in the card and some cash on his person is expecting the man whose whole thing is being prepared for anything to not be prepared for a very common event,
Alright, then would you kindly paint for me this scene without it coming off as ridiculous and forced: Batman walks into a bank to get a loan.
In the good movies he wasn’t a wanted man, and yeah if he needed to pay for damages or buy something for a plan,
Yeah, because Bruce dressed as Batman, just walking into a store for a purchase, when he’s a widely wanted vigilante… makes total sense.
You gave her an alicorn credit card?
You had the balls to give one of the greatest ponies of all time an alicorn. Credit card.
NOOOOOOOOPE
DOES NOT COMPUTE
“AN ALICORN CREDIT CARD!?
Thanks alot. I wanted to use Celestia’s image, but I thought that would be a bit too much. So I went with the Alicorn Amulet for the look on the card.
Nah. He’d be okay with this.
Twilight: So I’ll borrow it off of you.
Flash Sentry: You girls aren’t fighting over little old me?
Aww. You mad, Doug Funnie? XP
