 Anarky 's appearance in Batman : Arkham Origins included a speech delivered at the conclusion of the character 's story arch . The player is given the opportunity to observe Anarky after he has been defeated , and watch as the teenager enters a monologue in which he laments the downfall of society , tries to reconcile his admiration for Batman , and ultimately denounces the Caped Crusader as a false hero . Nick Dinicola of PopMatters , in comparing the game to its predecessor , Batman : Arkham City , asserted that the narrative of Origins consistently challenged Batman 's ideological reasons for acting as he does , whereas City uncritically took his motivations as a given . " Anarky ’ s wonderful speech takes Batman to task for the contradictions in his symbolism , " writes Dinicola , choosing that moment in the game as one of several examples of this theme . " Considering that Batman is very explicitly a symbol of fear , Anarky is equating the rise of Batman with the downfall of society . " Dinicola was also of the opinion that the willingness to use characters like Anarky to scrutinize Batman 's heroism , rather than simply assert it , allowed the game to ultimately prove and uphold Batman as a heroic figure in a way City could not . To Dinicola , this validated the act of challenging a superhero 's traditional interpretation in service to the story .
