An excellent point.

Adam West is obviously the best Batman because his Gotham was a sunny place of good citizenship, free of organized crime.

Adam West Batman was clearly the only Batman who actually did his job.

Might want to fix that link so it doesn't prepend the page it's being viewed from to the actual URL. I do like the sentiment.

Thanks. That's one of those really annoying bugs in Semagic where it occasionally decides to change the types of quotes you're using or something like that . . . .

He's the only Batman who is so awesome that he prevented his parents' murder!

I am puzzled. What does Batman (a DC character) have to do with Disney buying Marvel?

Nothing, and the mouseover text says as much. Sanjay just wanted to make that point, anyway.

I like and admire Batman; but I don't read Batman. Because the Batman in the comics lacks the ability to change his world for the better. He may be able to stop a particular threat, but he will never be permitted to solve the actual problem - the structure of the comic book series doesn't allow it.

The same is true of the 80's and 90's X-men and their associates. In fact in the real world what they were doing (by hiding their identities) would have made the situation worse. So I stopped reading.
