I dunno*, if ever there were a symbol for reaction instead of proaction, it's Batman. Punch their face, toss them in an "asylum". Sometimes announce to noone in particular, "they'll get you the help you need." Like he actually believed it or is trying to convince himself, as if it wasn't the 15th time he'd bloodied this guy's face. Great detective, though.

*I've never read the comics

Batman is plenty proactive. For example he had collected each of the Justice League member's weakness just in case one of them go rogue.

He also became Batman, which I imagine took some time and effort. Seems like the sort of thing you'd have to do in advance at least.

Didn't prevent his parents deaths though. What a lazy p.o.s. Not proactive at all.
