Batman: Gotham's Savior or Undoing?
Heroes and Villains of the Millennial Generation
(2018)
Abstract
This chapter will illuminate the characteristics of Batman that prompts people to consider him to be both hero and villain, leaving it up to the reader to make a final judgment. First, I’m going to provide a quick synopsis of how Batman is presented over time. Then I will offer an overview of Batman’s biography, transformation from Bruce to Batman, and how he transformed his sidekick Robin. Afterward, I will discuss whether Batman is a hero or a villain, leaving it up to readers to decide, but ultimately concluding that Batman needs to be deemed a hero.
