    Batman

    Character » Batman appears in 23648 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.

    Why doesn't he use the insider suit more often?

    This depends on the authors. We say that Batman is not put in a position to use it.He recently made ​​use of another type of armor, in Batman # 9

    Because it would be pretty damn boring if he solved all of his problems with it.

    Why not only wear it when he is fighting along side the justice league as he would be fighting super power beings.

    In Gotham he can wear his normal suit.

    With the Insider suit, Batman could beat the 4/5 of the comics characters.

    It's no longer canon to the crappy new 52, but the reason he didn't use it all the time was because it was ridiculously overpowered for Batman stories. Some of Superman's rogues would have trouble against it.

    I agree. I think this would solve plenty of problems, and would allow Batman to be a better part of the Justice League team.

    Because powers are for sissies and Batman's stubble cannot allow that.

    Why don't you just go read the arc that it is in where he says why he doesn't use it all the time?

    Agreed.

    I think it would make sense for him to use it on JLA missions or threats that are normally too much for him to handle but not when he's in Gotham, sort of like how Iron Man doesn't use his Hulkbuster suit to fight just anyone.

    his normal crappy suit is useless,it's like dc characters just wear costumes because they are fun,batman's costume is useless.AT LEAST wear it when your with the justice league,and wear your normal one in gotham,and that suit doesn't decrease his intelligence or make him depend on it.that's like saying get rid of batman's gadgets,he depends on them too much,which he doesn't,(he doesn't use the powers of the insider suit,or doesn't need to often)....

    Well actually it is rather usefull against his normal Rogue Gallery. It is also pretty handy against other rogues and enemies.
