Favorite Batman

[surferfan23]

I think I know which form will win, especially with the movie having this form in it.....but lemme know!!!!

[jonahhex]

I voted for the Batman that kisses catwoman. -- Which I think of as the Earth 2 Batman that married Catwoman and gave birth to the original Huntress. Yeah, bring back the pre-crisis on infinite earths EARTHS. AND bring back Bat-mite while we're at it. :D

[Sanagi]

Animated Series.

[1HELLBOY]

For me, it's a toss-up between Bale, Detective, and Dark Knight. But since I can only vote once. I voted Bale.

[Spike-X]

Animated Series.
Second that.

[Rob H]

Dark Knight all the way. Batman that kisses Catwoman comes in at a close second.

[hangmanjury]

I think you missed the best Batman of all time - the one from the Animated Series, who was dark, a detective, but not a jerk, and not as dark as Miller would like.

[We R. Venom]

Second that.

Most definately that batman. Cuz he was like all of e. to me anyway.

[literally exaggerated]

I picked the Dark Knight, with Bale, Detective and Bats from the Animated Series all coming in around 2nd.

[bushboy]

I like the current animated one where hes more of a hero. In the comics i said Dark Knight

[estee]

Clark Bartram...from Batman: Dead End.

Dark Knight was great too. So was the Animated series.

[Artemis1]

Either BTAS Batman, Bale Batman, or Dark Knight Batman.

[Jason H]

Dark Knight Batman

[The Joker]

The Dark Knight

I'm not sure who the '70's Batman' or 'BTAS' is supposed to be. So I said Detective.

[Rob H]

70's Batman is more happy-go-lucky than "happy-go-lucky Batman". He's the detective with a moralistic message in each panel. :p

[Stephane Garrelie]

The 70's Batman: I voted detective.

[Fenix]

Animated series. Any version. ALL THE WAY.

[The Shadow]

I would have went with 70's Batman because I LOVE the Adams/O'Neil stuff... but Detective Batman got my vote

[Lubichev]

The Dark Knight. Such a badass. SUCH a badass.

[Cei-U!]

The Detective Batman, who I presume is the '70s/early '80s version, with the BTAS version a very close second and the Bat-Man third (if we interpret that to include all the Golden Age material through '48 or so). I have no use for 99.99% of the Batman comics published since '86 (the animated tie-ins excepted).

Cei-U!
I summon the World's Greatest Detective!

[Mainline]

The Dark Knight. Such a badass. SUCH a badass.

I disagree a little. The Dark Knight to me is B:TAS Batman with an emphasis on KNIGHT. He's chivarous with a code of honor, compassion, and humanity with SOME darkness but not overwhelmed by it as Jerk Bat, Angst Bat, or Miller Batman would be.

Bat God/UberBat is arguably the "strongest" so in that sense a badass... but he also tended to be sufficiently a teamplayer to not be as "bad" a badass. The "bad" in badass, to me, signifies the anti-hero aspects of Batman which are greatest in Jerk Bat, Angst Bat, and Miller Bat. (wondering where these variations are on the poll?)

The Dark KNIGHT, however, is 100% hero without question.

[Lubichev]

Semantics.
"Badass" to me is a generic word for all things really, really great. Being a "Bad Ass" is something completely different. Um......I guess I need to expand my adjectives.

Remember, I'm from Eastern Europe. Monkey hear, monkey say.

[Tomodachi]

Another vote for Batman: The Animated Series. Great combination of dark/detective.

I would say Loeb's idea of Batman seems to fit this pretty good.

[Hound]

The Dark Knight and Detective Batman are close. I like both in my ideal Batman.

[Kieralinn]

Either BTAS Batman, Bale Batman, or Dark Knight Batman.

I agree with all of these plus JL/JLU Bats! But I voted for Current jerky Batman. I like that he's being a p**** right now...I think it's interesting for the moment and want to see how it plays out.

[Slam_Bradley]

I went with "Detective Batman" because that seemed closest to the O'Neil/Adams Batman that I loved and who continued through Englehart/Rogers and up to the Miller reboot. BTAS would be a reasonably close second.
