Batman is a gift that keeps on giving, from comics to video games, but the tv shows are second to none, but which one is the best?
If you’re a fan of DC Comics, chances are that you’re also a fan of Batman. The Dark Knight is arguably the face of the DC universe, and he’s appeared in countless movies, shows, and cartoons over the years. With his brooding personality, iconic gadgets, and memorable rogues gallery, Batman has become a pop culture icon and a money-making machine for DC.
Batman has been a staple of the DC universe since his first appearance in Detective Comics #27 in 1939. Since then, he’s become one of the most recognizable superheroes in the world, with his signature cape and cowl inspiring countless cosplayers and Halloween costumes. With his gritty noir-inspired stories, Batman has become a favorite of both comic book fans and mainstream audiences alike.
But The Dark Knight’s popularity isn’t just limited to the comics. Over the years, he’s appeared in several movies, starting with the campy 1966 film starring Adam West as the Caped Crusader. More recent movies like Christopher Nolan’s Dark Knight trilogy and Zack Snyder’s Snyderverse have taken a darker and more realistic approach to the character, cementing Batman’s status as one of the most versatile superheroes in film.
The Dark Knight’s influence isn’t limited to the big screen. He’s also been a fixture of TV shows and cartoons, with countless spinoffs and adaptations over the years. Heck, we’re even set to get The Penguin a (The) Batman spinoff series on Max. Batman has shown up in nearly every form of media imaginable. We all have that debate… Which shows rank among the best? Well, we answer that for you.
