Ash's Adventures of Batman: Mask of the Phantasm/Transcript

A Bitter Victory

(Scene: Batcave)

• Alfred Pennyworth: I don't think she wanted to be saved, sir. Vengeance blackens the soul, Bruce. I always feared you would become that which you fought against. You walk the edge of that abyss every night, but you haven't fallen in and I thank heaven for that. But Andrea fell into that pit years ago, and no one, not even you, could've pulled her back.

• Mewtwo (Narrator): Comic Book and Graphic Novel Legend Frank Miller, told once “The noir hero is a knight in blood caked armor. He's dirty and he does his best to deny the fact that he's a hero the whole time.”
