===========================================

This scene is on point on the Comic book imagery and its utilization 101. We see little Bruce falling down the hole in the beginning credits scene. Ever since that night when his parents were shot and Thomas uttered the word "Martha", Bruce was always a child falling down that hole. Bruce has always been "The Man Who falls". Not being true to his promise to protect the sanctity of life. He felt "Criminals are like weeds, pull one out and other one grows in its place". In BvS, killing Superman may be the only thing he did that mattered, as he thought, Superman's promises meant nothing. It would be Bruce's legacy.


Superman was just an alien who, if he wanted to, could burn this world to the ground. And after that nightmare he had, he was certain that Superman was a false god. Superman already had pained so many people. Blind in rage Bruce only saw what he truly believed: "What falls...is fallen."



But when he was about to kill Superman,whom he always referred to as an alien, and "Not even a man", when Clark says his mother's name, Bruce stops. He realizes how far he has fallen. "MARTHA" was just a call to redeem his soul. All the memories flood his mind. The name that threw him off board in childhood, was the name that pulls him up. A hard-reboot. He becomes that boy who lost his parents and wanted to save lives of others. What fell, is no more fallen. Maybe he was lying at his feet, but Bruce knows: There is.....Hope.

Bruce stumbled, he fell. But he got back up to join Clark in the sun. And he made a promise to that boy standing in front of him..."Martha won't die tonight".
