This is the same guy who eventually becomes THIS:

And yes, he's beating up Bruce freaking Wayne.

[yall-send-help]

to the “who is the mask” argument, batman quite literally does not exist without bruce wayne

for context, the above panels are from a comic in which bruce wayne and batman are split into two separate beings

and this is bruce tried to cut out the bruce wayne part of himself and just be batman

everything that defines and drives batman comes from bruce wayne. batman does not and cannot exist without bruce wayne. point blank period

Eel goes on to describe Flowers For Algernon as an analogy for him splitting from his Plastic Man persona (and how being Eel again was 100% a BAD thing and he was acutely aware of that), but the first thing that came to my mind was the circus from We're Back, where the dinosaurs are reverted to vicious and mindless by the ringmaster, but the kids giving them hugs turns them back into gentle goofs. (Which is one of my favorite tropes in human history. You'll never rip it out off my hands.)
