Batman popularity pool

Animated universe.

Nolanverse Batman in my opinion.

DCAU, hands down.

DCAU

Nolan's Batman increased Batman's popularity to the mainstream audience, further boosting his status as the most popular superhero character.

DCAU's Batman is popular with the comic fans.

The rest are a bit too niche.

@aange4315: Niche?

DCAU

Baleman

Arkham

Burton

DCAU for sure.

Actually hate Nolanverse Batman.

That voice.

Ugh.

I meant, they aren't as mainstream compared to DCAU and Nolan-verse... or at least that's how I perceived it from my understanding of their popularity

DCAU every time.

Nolan's trilogy did boost Batman's popularity to a ridiculous degree, but I know a lot of comic book fans who's first exposure to Batman - or superheroes in general - was through shows like Batman: The Animated Series and Burton's movies. Even the Adam West Batman show of the 60's deserves credit for why Batman is so popular today.

Edit: Speaking of Adam West's Batman; why isn't he on the list!?

speaking of that... actually I liked the campy Batman better than the serious brooding version on modern comics.

DCUA with Arkham a close second.

Arkham with DCAU second
