When did comics stop using "the batman" and start saying just "Batman?" I've always thought "the batman" makes him seem more mythological and impressive. Does anyone know when and why the title changed?
I think the collective community of Comicvine has enough detective skills to help me figure out this one; How would Batman defeat a Jedi in battle? If he can beat Superman, he can take Obi-Wan, but how would he do it?
@Gambit1024: I read those books/arcs you mentioned and was considerably frustrated then as well. I think it's his writing style. I'd like someone who really likes him now and can make heads-or-tails out of his writing to tell me why this guy gets the praise of even Geoff Johns.
My friend darklantern and I have had the same discussion for two years: why does everyone like Grant Morrison. I finally got through The Return of Bruce Wayne and was shell-shocked by the entire experience: I had trouble understanding not just every other page, but every other line of dialogue. His stories completely confound me, they all feel like works-in-progress.
However, hundreds of thousands of fans can't get enough of him. Can anyone please explain why Grant Morrison is so great to me?
