The Caped Crusader

For those of you that know my husband, Chris, know that he is a HUGE Batman fan. When we started dating, I have to admit, I wasn't too thrilled at the idea of listening to Batman tales but as I learned more about the Caped Crusader, I realized he is pretty amazing (even if he is imaginary).  For one thing, did you know that Batman does not actually have any super powers? He is simply incredibly physically gifted and incredibly intelligent (and incredibly hot...wink, wink Christian Bale).


Another interesting thing about Batman, comically speaking, is the number of "bad guys" that exist in the Batman Universe. There are probably hundreds of them, many more than could ever be covered in all of the Batman movies that have been made and that have yet to be made. Some of these ferocious felons are:

Bane - he will be featured in the next Batman movie...big scary guy
Calendar Man - commits crimes on holidays and other significant days throughout the year
Harley Quinn - Joker's sidekick  - also the name of Kevin Smith's daughter
Catwoman - aka Selina Kyle...meow
The Mad Hatter - he is inspired by Alice in Wonderland and always wears a fantastically big hat

So the moral of this post? Give Batman a chance, especially all you ladies out there, he is pretty damn cool
