Batman

Batman is consider one of the most versatile characters ever created, branching out from comics to radio, movies both live action and animated, when the Nolan batman movie with the dark portray of batman was playing in the cinema on television the cartoon series batman brave and the bold was on portraying batman as a cheerful, more light-hearted and playful character.

The batman fandom is base on a model where the more knowledge you have the deeper you get into the fandom. The better understanding of batman's social and psychology growth leads to a greater understanding of his development as a characters. But due to the long and complex history and some material being hard to get a hold of.  Meaning that the fanbase is divided through its own information. The more knowledge they required the more they can enjoy a enhance picture of the larger mythological tapestry. But there is alot of leg work involved. But there are very few fans with this mush knowledge’s in existence.

The entire premise of Batman could be read as the story of a repressed man taking out his sexual aggressions by exerting his male dominance. Or just a man who dawns a costume to fight for justice.
