What's with bat-fans and their need to prove batmans superiority

Because, of the Nolan movies.

i feel the same way about WW fan boys and fan girls they are either lecturing you on how wonder woman is somehow as strong as supes and as fast as flash with no real proof or how he costume should be changed cause its to reveiling theyre so annoying

well better books/movies

winning record

most popular

its like being a Laker or Yankee fan but without having to be from NY or LA

outliers like millers version where he kicked superman and the part where he did the spectre kick

debates should be objective though rather than subjective

There world will shatter... sad...

Like the followers of any god, they feel the need to create shrines of worship to their deity. Lest he cast his shadowy vengeance.

...

I'm just f**king with you.

People suck.

Because he is a superhero without any powers.

That makes them feel they need to make it clear he's not just as good, he's BETTER then all the other superheros for doing it without the powers.

They get defensive when you mention the fact he has no powers, by saying HIS BRAINS ARE HIS POWERS, or more barbarically HE"S THE DANG BATGOD HE WINS. >,> I feel this is not nessecary we know Batmans tough as you can get without powers, and I like Hawkeye myself, but it's just he has such a large fanbase willing to defend his lack of powers. Also he's been around so long that more then one generation has come and gone being Batman fans, so followers of Batman are extremly dedicated, more so then there more shallow Superman fan counterparts. You have to appreciate intelligence to really like Batman, you have to have no problem with him being a superrich person in an extremely gothic city, you have to suspend your belief and not wonder why if he's rich enough in resources to have a Nuclear generator in his cave he doesn't just help Gotham (the city he's trying to save) out of poverty with his billions of dollars. You have to love animal based characters. You have to deal with the fact Gotham doesn't need him, that..or they don't deserve him, either one makes him either pathetic or over confident in himself. You must have faith in what he says, you have to be dedicated to the fact he'll win against Superman with a calculator a teaspoon and the right reflection of the sun to kill him with red sun rays. He's completely incapable of having a relationship, so if your a socially awkward preppy geek you can relate to him alot. He has a belt with everything in it, if you liked bob the builder you''ll like him too. He has had several boy wonders with no pants as side kicks, so the fact he can't have a relationship isn't a huge surprise.

Batmans wins.

@SmashBrawler: I'm not for annoying people but seen this before from fans of non-winning franchises as a NYer(die hard Yankees fans) who has lived in Cleveland, so I've seen the reaction from fans of lets say not on the winning side fans

and if your saying you don't want to hear it all the time I wouldn't be on a comic debate site where most of the posters seem to love or hate Batman and find ways to talk about him

same as gathering around basketball fans and not talking about Kobe/Lebron and any other subject. the most popular aspect of each subject will be mentioned more often then not..no one cares about Konrad Zuse but everyone has an idea about Steve Jobs

Well, in all fairness fan is short for fanatic so they are simply being fans in the truest sense of the word.

Every fanboy is horrible. There just happens to be more Batman fans in general which is why you see it more with Batman.

Nicley said sir. Storm and Spidey I've seen being being deffended to absurd levels.

Many thanks kind sir. I think it's safe to say that most people who participate in debates have defended a favorite character of theirs beyond their capabilities at one time or another or another.

Whats with non-batman fans and there need to prove there dislike of batman?

Really,it is ridiculous.I saw some posts that are completely irrational.I understand that as fans they want to defend him but that has gone out of hand.

So,why do you think it is happening?

Edit: And because i was accused of disliking batman,i want to say that i like the character.

If i wasn't i wouldn't write blogs about him neither would i have read so many comics.

@Squalleon: I read it. Refer to the post I quoted in which you said you had never seen, "Insert statement here." I'm saying stick around awhile, you will see a ridiculious Green Arrow vs thread and Green Arrow fans defending him. Happens with every character. Not saying it doesnt happen more with Batman but as one of the most infamous characters ever I think its to be expected. And to be honest, if Galactus and Batman ended up in the same comic we alllllll know Batman would be written as the victor through some crazy batscheme. Dont blame the Batfanatics, blame the DCU lol

this is true. Its more DC's fault for portraying him as unbeatable not the fans

Bat God wins

Short answer: Batman's a normal human fighting alongside insanely overpowered people. He doesn't need to prove his usefulness because he's Batman.

His fans are not, so they feel the need to do it for him.

And a lot of these people get mad whenever a storm fan posts something. Perplexes the mind.

It's not "A" Storm fan that upsets people.

It's "THE" Storm fan.

If you don't know the one, you haven't been paying attention.

@Wolfrazer: I said he's a normal human being. No genetic modifications, no abnormal aberrations, no unique powers of any kind. If I'd merely said he was normal, that would mean he was normal as in possessing traits alongside the vast majority of society. He does not. He has money, physical skills, and intellectual capabilities far above the norm. Allow me to summarize his 'normality' in a basic equation:

Batman is what would happen if Bill Gates and Bruce Lee had a baby.

Capiche?

@InnerVenom123: I do know the one you are talking about. But I am saying whenever a fan of Storm posts something, and more than one does, people go up in arms. Yet a multitude of dumb Batman posts and threads are pardoned because he's batman. It is stupid.

Because usually when Storm posts are made in big numbers, it's trolling.

@SmashBrawler: lol I saw that Cracked article, one of my favorite sites...article was ok but you do know thats a comedy site

but about that article why would it be unfair?

pointless? maybe but read

and if he has 7 not just 1 reason to be better then Supes why need to list them, well I don't know if you read the article or just was using it to make a point but they are obvious reasons and even one most would agree 1.Batman would lose the fight

anyway the site has 6 reasons why Iron man is better then Batman, although based on the movies

but your talking about bashing and its not, unless its outright A sucks B doesn't instead of B is better then A as my opinion everything is fine

In my short anount of time on CV, I've seen so many people complain about bat-fans, and so few actual crazy bat fans. Who cares?
