    Batman

    Character » Batman appears in 23651 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.

    What's so special about Batman? He has no super powers!

    The only thing i dont like about batman is that he always manages to beat the hell out of the people WITH super powers. which only happens because of his popularity.

    I thought the whole point of super-hero comics was to see heroes overcome odds. I'm not saying that he should be able to take on dudes like Darkseid on his own though.

    As Superman has said he is the most dangerous human and he has also said with his gadgets he can think of no other person he would want on his back

    The only time someome would say that is if someone is saying a superhero they like is lame, and that Batman is cool in the same sentence (which I must admit, annoys me and makes it hard for me to like Batman. But I do :D).

    Well, it's certainly stating the obvious but it's because he has no powers that makes him special.  Would the rest of DC's superheros be fighting crime if they where suddenly stripped of all their power's?  Or better yet, would they have become heroes in the first place if they had never had any powers?  Would Clark Kent have put on a custom to fight crime if he wasn't an alien from another planet, but just another normal human being?

    I dunno, I had always considered Batman's popularity came from his rogues gallery. Even if Joker wasn't around he has possibly the best rogues gallery in all of comic-dom.
