Movies

Batman has also had some of the most successful movies out of any superheros. There have already been two very successful recent movies called Batman Begins and The Dark Knight about the Batman, and the third and final movie in the series called The Dark Knight Rises releases this summer. These movies have done a great job of following the Batman story of the comic books as well as making Batman as realistic as possible. They show the original story of Batman as he first becomes the hero and how he developed along with his villains. Unlike older Batman movies they actually make most of the character's look similar and act similar to how they do in the comics. The third and final movie is sure to be a huge success.

Video Games

This posting is a change from the normal postings to make a point about Batman being the best in a 
certain thing. In my opinion the very best super hero video games are the somewhat recent hits of Batman: Arkham Asylum and Batman: Arkham City. These are both well known Batman video games that are from the perspective of Batman. Both of these games have been majorly successful. In them, the player gets to control Batman as he gets to the bottom a lunatic taking over Arkham Asylum. In both stories the character fights his way through several enemies until his final showdown with the Joker (the stories main villain). In the games, Batman has several different gadgets and abilities that improve as the player gets farther into the story. There has never been a super hero game like these two. Many people have said and I would agree that Batman: Arkham City is the best superhero video game yet.
