@DeathpooltheT1000: This is comic books we're talking about. People can fly, bend steel, create technology decades, even centuries ahead of what we know isn't possible. So Batman knowing 127 styles of martial arts isn't that big a deal. You are supposed to partly suspend belief whilst reading any comic book, even a Batman one. Besides I think he created a style which blends aspects of a whole bunch of them together.
Comics still need you to think Batman is in some level human, take the fact 127 styles thing shows the fact that people who writte the comics have no idea about martial arts, since pretty much say that Batman train 30 styles would work, still sound like the guy train like crazy and the number dont sound random and insane, also he had to train other thing besides Martial arts, so havin over 100 styles, make sound like if he only train to fight.
Time for a Bruce Lee quote.
"I fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who has practiced one kick 10,000 times"
Someone who practices 10,000 different kicks only one time each may (theoretically) have a wide range of knowledge but his execution of each kick will be sloppy and ineffective secondary to lack of serious practice and study of the correct use of each one.
Someone who practices 1 kick 10,000 times, on the other hand, will have a great mastery of that kick and its usage and will know all of the ways to execute that kick to defeat his opponent.
