    Batman

    Character » Batman appears in 23635 issues.

    Bruce Wayne, who witnessed the murder of his billionaire parents as a child, swore to avenge their deaths. He trained extensively to achieve mental and physical perfection, mastering martial arts, detective skills, and criminal psychology. Costumed as a bat to prey on the fears of criminals, and utilizing a high-tech arsenal, he became the legendary Batman.

    Is it time for a completely new Batman?

    Batman is a good character for DC and he is one my top three favorite, we all know hes the cool, calm, collective,shady guy with smarts that most people can't even fathom which made me think of him as a villain.Even though we know he has qualities of a hero he does have qualties as a villain.This doesn't mean he has to have the desire to rule the world or something.I think if he was a villain he should have a goal that is for the right intentions but goes about it wrong.This would boost my popularity for him but what do you guys think?

    I can see it now, DC will pull a Marvel and call it the All New Superior Batman! But no, that would be a terrible idea.

    Right, because as we all know Batman is a character who just doesn't sell comics, clearly DC is doing something wrong with him and needs to change up the formula.

    Jason Todd already fills that role in the Bat-family.

    We already have enough characters that share your idea, which is what makes Batman so special.

    That being said. I would love a else world story where Batman has a Rorschach type of personality.
