Good or bad (I\u2019m looking at you, Joel Schumacher) there have been many versions of the character. Yet throughout the many iterations Batman has always had the same effect. You can love or hate him, but if it wasn\u2019t for the character Batman, comics wouldn\u2019t be at the level they are now. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Even though this character has been around for 80 years, it\u2019s obvious there\u2019s no limit on how he\u2019s portrayed. You would think writers would\u2019ve run out of ideas, but that\u2019s not the case. Instead, each brings their own distinctive flair to the Caped Crusader.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">My personal favorites were ones by Smith, Scott Snyder and Tom King, with art from Jim Lee, Greg Capullo, Tony S. Daniel and Joelle Jones. Each story had their own unique sense of style and a great message, its own standalone Batman story that covered aspects from being the world\u2019s greatest detective to showing his ever-growing Bat Family. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Batman is my all-time favorite character. Through his good and bad stories, I\u2019ve stuck by him. Unlike Superman, Wonder Woman and most comic-book characters, Batman is just a man. We see his trial and errors, we see the flaws that are within him. He isn\u2019t just a human that can beat anything and anyone just because he\u2019s Batman, because he can\u2019t. But when you see him rise against the unknown, against these God-like creatures\u2014he can fail, just like you and I could fail. Yet he doesn\u2019t give up, and through all his struggles and personal issues, maybe even mental issues\u2014he presses on. He has for 80 years and will continue until there is nothing else. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The one thing those Joel Schumacher films got right was Batman is forever. So here\u2019s to you, Batman, a one in a million superhero.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>DC Comics celebrated 80 years of the Dark Knight with Detective Comics #1000 on March 27. 1000 is an anthology of short stories\u2014an ode to Batman, if you will.
