Has anyone ever noticed the resemblances between Batman and Dracula?

- Both live in huge, magnificent but empty homes
- They employ a single male servant
- Extravagantly rich
- Lives in isolation
- Both have lofty titles (Count and President & CEO)
- Mostly awake at night

And what's more.

- Locals are either not bothered or hesitant about them
- Both have an obsession with bats, one dresses as them, the other turns into them
- Occasionally seduces young girls with the help of Alfred/Igor

Would a comic where Bruce is actually a young vampire count in medieval Transylvania, fighting werewolves and other undead work?

its a common thing

>>89282590

Bruce has already been a vampire before.

Did Dracula? I haven't read the book in over 10 years but I can't remember one.

Almost every version of Dracula has an Igor of sorts, usually it's RENFIELD!

If Batman is Dracula, what would the other JL members be?

>>89282950
Damn. I like that.

Make superman into a Frankenstein creation.

Aquaman would be the creature from the black lagoon.

Wonder Woman could be Diana Van Helsing (new and original concept) using guns and a lasso, who teams up with the Batman after learning there are much worse things in the dark.

>>89283124

I can see Wonder Woman as a Frankenstein's Monster.

Well, since Batman was a plagiarism of The Shadow, who was inspired by Dracula by Walter Gibson's own admission, it makes sense to draw this comparison

But in-universe Batman is inspired by Zorro.

During a crossover comic, Batman acknowledged The Shadow as his biggest inspiration.
And the Gray Ghost episode in Batman TAS is partially a reference to The Shadow too.

And even if Zorro is stated in-universe to be the primary inspiration, this does not change the indisputable fact that, by Bil Finger's own admission, Batman plagiarized The Shadow.

Could Flash be some kind of literal speed demon?

I can dig it

So what, Frankenstein made her out of clay because he always wanted a daughter?
>>
>>89284131
Hippolyta stitched her together from fallen amazons because she wanted a daughter. And the gods laid their blessings upon the corpse thing, with Zeus sending a great bolt of lightning to grant it the divine spark of life

>>89282950
I feel like there was an Elseworlds for this.

For like, two stories. Shadow really didn't have much to do with what Finger, Robinson and the gang made Batman into later on.

GL would be The Invisible Man
