There are several great superheroes that have been created by the Marvel and DC comics. Some of these include Black Widow, Iron Man, Captain America, Spiderman, and Batman. Although these are several of the "greats," I would like to focus on the greatest of them all, Batman. I did not really know who Batman was until I started dating my current boyfriend who happens to be a fan. I went from knowing nothing about Batman to being informed about his entire existence in an instance. So, there are a few reasons that Batman makes the greatest superhero ever, and so far this is what I have learned.
1. He has absolutely no super powers
Batman is just pure human. He has no super powers whatsoever and still manages to conquer evil and save the world (or his world, Gotham).
2. He has his own personal sign and symbol
He has a bat symbol and a signal, all personalized to suit his needs and help the citizens of Gotham and the normal world recognize that it's him.
3. He broke his back and still manages to be awesome
Enough said.
4. He is the world's greatest detective
He beats out Sherlock Holmes, Nancy Drew, and Danny Reagan (Blue Bloods) any day. Batman is the best detective there is. He can find anyone and everyone and doesn't find himself puzzled at even the hardest clues.
5. He has an awesome utility belt and miscellaneous gadgets
His utility belt and his miscellaneous gadgets are super handy if something breaks or he needs assistance conquering the world. It's as simple as that.
6. Batman has a Bat Cave
What do great superheroes have in common? They have a getaway hidden "bunker" where they can think and build and relax. Batman has a Bat Cave, which is specifically named after him. That beats out any ordinary man cave any day.
7. Batmobile
Just like the Bat Cave, Batman has a car named after him and is formed to look like to his "costume." That's just awesome in my opinion.
8. Robin
Batman has a partner in crime to help him with things and bond.
9. He has so many villains who are against him and he beats every single one of them
The Joker, Poison Ivy, Harley, Mr. Freeze, and Bane. Just to name a few.
10. He was trained by Ra's Al Ghul
When the best trains the best, you get a legend.
11. He is a billionaire
Bruce Wayne is not only Batman, but he is a billionaire. He has the best of both worlds.
12. He has beaten the justice league by HIMSELF
Talk about difficult, and he defeated the league by himself? I say that's a win for him!
So, from my point of view Batman may be the best superhero of all time. Everything he does is pretty awesome and he does it alone mostly, which gives him even more credit.
