User blog:Peteparker/Batman: A badass everyman, or just a stubborn brat with toys?

So Batman is my least favorite DC character. Probably because he was my brother's favorite.

Between the cheesy tv shows, and the horrendous movies that almost sunk Comic movies for good, true Batman awesomeness is in small amounts compared to the mass of garbage that is mostly created.

But this post isn't just about what's been done with the character, but the character itself.

To me, you take any kid, shoot his parents in the face in front of him, and give him a trust fund, and you have Batman.

Any dude with the ability to buy himself karate lessons and a car with a rocket engine can be Batman, and this makes Batman weak in my eyes.

I'll grant you that I didn't read a lot of Batman stories growing up, and my access to all of his exploits are fairly limited, but still, you have to grant me the fact that he's just a guy with money and old-white guy ninja skills.

And that is without mentioning his fetish for young boys. . . ;)
