It looks like one giant retcon. Everything! It was all part of the Plan! Seriously!
Really? I think it looks like the opposite of that. Given that at the start Stockwell is saying "The plan is that we wiped them out a week ago. But noooooooooo."
There are cockroaches in Mexico big enough to own property.

Chaotic good.
Doesn't that depend on your definition of lawful vs. chaotic? Because Batman can be pretty damn rigid about some things.

then pointing and laughing will suffice. So, yes: let’s all point and laugh at these funny little terrified stupid men, and then ignore them.

Yeah, he's pretty lawful, but his methods aren't. Lawful good would make him a policeman.

Not in Gotham.
