What makes Batman different from other superheroes?

Gotham city is perhaps the most well-known fictional city —the place where Batman operates. Many of the superheroes that we know have supernatural powers. But Batman does not possess any strange superpower. However, his intellect is superior to the common folk and he has a commendable mastery over martial arts.

Bruce Wayne is a wealthy American philanthropist; he owns the Wayne Enterprises. As a child, Bruce witnesses his parents’ murder. It shakes him and leaves him disturbed for years. Frustrated by anger, he swears to take vengeance against criminals. This gives him a sense of justice.

The worst of Bruce’s fears was bats; therefore, he crafts a bat-inspired persona to fight crime. Bruce trains himself physically and intellectually as well.

Batman was created for DC Comics by artist Bob Kane and writer Bill Finger. Batman first appeared in 1939. The character became popular soon and gained his own comic book title, Batman, the following year. The character has been adapted for serials and films since then.

Many actors played Batman; prominent among them are George Clooney, Ben Affleck, and Warren Christie. Robert Pattinson will portray the character in the upcoming 2022 film, The Batman.
