"Detective Comics #27" came out in 1939 and introduced the world to a mysterious character named Batman. He was dark and intimidating, and he fought bad guys but in a way that was so different than a hero like Superman. Batman was a hero who looked like a bad guy; he used fear as a tool. It was a fresh concept, and people loved it. Batman has been going strong for 80 years now and is the cornerstone of the entire DC comics universe. No other solo character has had as many appearances on film as Batman, and no other character is still as interesting and engaging to audiences, even though the actor who plays him changes continuously. It's not the face behind the mask that people love; that's for sure.
Part of what makes Batman so iconic is his world and, in particular, his Rogue's Gallery. Batman's villains are the kind you never forget. They're so engaging, they get their own movies without Batman even being present, and that's not something you can say about Lex Luthor or the Green Goblin. With such a rich world of unique and cool characters, surely there's a place where you fit in, a character that is much like you are. Why not take the quiz and find out who that character is!
