What is Batman known for?
Ans: Batman is also known as the 'Caped Crusader', the 'World's Greatest Detective', and the 'Dark Knight'. While most superheroes have superpowers, Batman does not. He relies
on his martial arts skills, detective skills, physical strength,
intellect, wealth, technology, and will to face the criminals in Gotham
City.

Ans: His first-ever appearance in the DC Comics came in an issue of
Detective Comics published on March 30, 1939, which is now officially
recognized as his birthday. In real-world terms, this means that the
Caped Crusader just turned 81 years old. Happy birthday, Batman!
Why is Batman called Batman?
Ans: In the original comic book, Detective Comics #29 (1939), Bruce
Wayne chose the name, Batman, because a bat flew into his window, while he brainstormed for a code
name that would “strike terror into criminals' hearts.” I think you can
see this in the Dark Knight and/or in the First Batman movie
Is Batman bad?
Ans: Batman Is NOT a Bad Superhero.
Despite what thinks, Batman is what Gotham City needs. While his methods don't make the best results, those aren't his fault. Gotham is just a hungry place that can eat away at people's sense of right and wrong. Even paragons of goodness like Superman get overwhelmed by the city.
