Hot take: Batman is arguably the greatest fictional character ever.

 Wait, he's not real? 
 I am real 😅 https://image.nostr.build/f80aac283ec641bdffab4501615e9171ece52fe24e4ff18e8a8225b9d9f3f7da.gif  
 He'll probably try to tell us that there is no Santa next! 🎅  
 The joker can be put up there as well pure chaos and mystery 
 He was the greatest villain of all time.

 No wonder.
they got an actor on his 1st or 2nd job after years battling with depression and addictions (plural, coke and psyco-drugs). He had to deal with being a gay idol after the cowboy movie. he spent months reclused alone at his home, his family had to rescue him and get him in shape (mind and body) to look for work again.

When he was coming back to his senses, they gave him a deep nihilistic psycopathic villan part.
He excelled at it, and then killed himself. 
 Why? 
 He was very relatable, unlike other superheroes, even Bruce Wayne as a character is also very complex. A lot of relatable depth. 
 I think Spider-man is the best, more relatable, but batman is a close second 💯. Also love the relationship between Lego batman and Lego joker 🥹💜 
 Spidey 🕷️💜 
 🥹💜💯 
 If you don't believe me, rewatch Spider-Man 2 🥹💜 that movie makes me feel things 🤙 
 Help me. I don't know my way around that well. Why Batman? Or why Spider-Man? Are there any other superheroes? 
 Don't start with that new rubbish 🙏 go for the Toby Maguire Spider-Man films first 🥹💜 Sam Raimi is 😍. Spider-Man cos he's supposed to struggle in life, he's not supposed to be this really attractive guy that gets all the girls (maybe in other comics, but that's not relatable 🥹) and even when things go well in his personal life he knows that he has to sacrifice that when the time comes, cus 'with great power, comes great responsibility ' 🥹💜. Constantly trying to figure out how to balance his life until he kinda realises he can't (not the way he wants to). And he makes mistakes, and they feel real. He has no billionaire safety blanket, like some Spider-Man.... and he understands responsibility when faced with it, but it's a struggle cos he's under appreciated and works for free 😂  
 Wonder Women is amazing too 💯❤️💜 she's kinda a badass 😏 
 Super sexy 💜
Especially the golden lasso 😉 
 I have to look at that 😂 
 🤣😂 🙏💜 
 I love it 🤍🤌 
 The 90s spiderman animation is so so good pure nostalgia for me highly recommend  
 The new ones are more relatable, but personally, I don't like them. I think Tobey Maguire was the best one. 

That's purely nostalgia. 
 Oh yeah definitely, I'm not talking about the new ones 🙏😂 those are too Disney for me and I went to school with him so I can't take it seriously 🥲 ruins the illusion. 💯 agree Tobey Maguire was the best - also love the Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse film 😍 the Jake Johnson Spider-man in that film is so relatable 😂💜 
 "What if Batman's biggest enemy isn't crime? What if his deepest fear isn't bats? What if the secret villain Batman faces in every Batman story is anarchism?"

 He's the GOAT because he has no super powers. 
 Are you kidding me?
His super power is super wealth 🤫 
 The greatest detective of comic books. Movies did him dirty so far
