Re: WHY BATMAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I think that the reason I lean towards the Batman is that if you think about it... He's the only one that can really exist in this lovely world of ours. He's human. No special powers, no super strength. There's no such thing as a flying man with heat vision, or being bitten by a spider making you able to climb walls. Real life is just not like that. He's just a normal man in a cool outfit looking to fix his messed up world. That's what makes Batman the most respected hero in my book. He's real, well... he can be real.

Re: WHY BATMAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It's an undying question we all should revisit, now and then, Batiman. My answer agrees with bros' words so far, tonight, and adds a little to some excerpts from a 3/8/2003 post on the old board:
"...In yours truly's case, the dream is much more exciting and fulfilling if the fantasy really can be. Consider Superman, for example. Such a being is impossible in all human experience -- and therefore not particularly interesting to this particular bro. But Batman is humanly possible, which is something that creating a functional Bat Suit helps me confirm.
"Secondly, the concept of Batman as a disturbed, dark avenger supports feeling one's own dark side; and embracing that brooding as even great -- so long as we don't carry out our vicious passions in real life. And that's another wonderful value to fantasizing the possible, I believe." Add to that, the bizarre night predator in the guise of a macabre bat. A fierce, dark demon of the night pursuing his own extraordinary kinds of virtues against the forces of evil. A black, powerful, chivalrous knight who risks everything he's got.
"It's not that we swing around skyscrapers in our implacable and menacing secret identities -- and via our ingenious, electrically operated cable devices; or that we pound crooks senseless with a barrage of fists -- but that it's possible. It could be. And yours truly feels a need to know that kind of heroism and adventure -- rather than only to dream impossible, empty dreams about such things.
"And when we actually wear a Bat Suit, we may not be Batman -- but we are with him, and he is with us. He comes alive in us, and we live with and in him."

Re: WHY BATMAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
He decides to fight evil so no other person will feel the pain he felt as his family was gunned down before his eyes. No one should ever experience a pain such as that.
He makes every attempt to change the world for the better, and he’ll never stop until he knows there is NO EVIL.
Other superheroes do this, but Batman differs because he is a regular man that uses all the capabilities of the human mind and body to fight for his cause. He doesn’t get an easy way out with wall climbing, or heat vision.
He’s the example of what a person can do if they have enough drive to do it.

Nice, Jeff. :bounce :bounce
I think because he goes after the bad guy in the shadows and doesn't care what happens. He's a nut.

Re: WHY BATMAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That is always what I wanted to be when I grew up.
I bought it hook line and sinker at age three watching Adam West on original show airing dates. I thought every show was real and they were really living that incredible life style while I watched. When it turned out life was much less exciting when I grew up then I had expected I guess nothing else ever measured up so I just hung on to the fantasy forever. That is really about the whole story. It is kind of disappointing when you think about it.
Kind of like Santa for me but way bigger.

Re: WHY BATMAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I would have to agree with everything above. I even shaped my career towards helping people I love Batman so much. I get to use "secret identities" when I go undercover and live a second life in a sense like Bruce Wayne. It satisfies my superhero fantasy at least.
