What is your preferred interpretation of Batman's character?
Not just from pic related, but throughout his history

From the comics I personally really love Dick Greyson as batman, but from other media it's defiantly the animated series.
>>
>>89544912
Pretty much this one. He's dark, but not overly so. They keep the noir aspect of his person, how he actually looks at his collection of characters as people that need his help when he's not a detective solving mysteries.

Also, I have yet to encounter a Batman storyline as brilliantly done as Almost Got 'Im is an episode.
>>
>>89544875
Nolan's can turn his head and the suit looks like armor.

Batfleck's voice filter thing is more practical, realistic, and frankly less silly than the actor just talking in a gruff voice.

I thought Clooney made a pretty good Bruce Wayne.

Kevin Conroy's voice is GOAT and Timm's drawing style works great for superheroes.

Batman Beyond oddly works really good despite the lame "batman but in high school!" premise. Batman having someone running Ops back in the batcave makes more sense than Batman running around with no Ops.

You should read the comics that the show was based on: the Batman and Detective Comics issues of the 70's including works of Denny O'Neil, Archie Goodwin, Bob Rozakis, Steve Englehart, Len Wein, and Gerry Conway. Steve Englehart's run was of particular influence and many issues were adapted directly to the screen.

"Almost Got 'im" was adapted from a story by David Vern Reed across Batman #291, 292, 293 and 294.

The one from the animated series and the Arkham games is everything MUH Batman should be.

Catholic family batman (O'Neil, Morrison, Miller, grant) is the best version of the character

woah nigga.

BTAS and Scott Snyder's Batman are probably my two favs.
>>
>>89544875
Any depiction where he is fatherly toward the robins. Batdad is best bat.
>>
>>89544875
Silver Age, especially when paired with Superman.

>Kevin Conroy's Batman

Technically they're the same thing
Guess you mean BTAS for Kevin Conroy's Batman

BTAS. It's what I grew up with.

1. BTAS
2. Arkham games

I'd put him at High/Mid-tier. The show was forgettable, but it was nice to see Batman's 'Detective' side played up more for once.
>>89546866
Clooney is just unlikable regardless of context.
>>
Picrelated will always be my Batman. Return of the Joker is the best Batman movie.

Should of kept it so Dick is the Batman of Gotham or Bludhaven, while Bruce is Batman-Batman
>>
>>89545391
Oh, I know that, dude.

But the way that Almost Got 'Im was set up and the sheer BALANCE it had trumps what it was adapted from. It had humor, a little sci-fi, a below-the-decks episode and even a glimpse into each of the villains lives (We used to date) and how they are... not to mention some character development in-show on the part of Catwoman.

My only gripe was making Terry some freakish clone of Bruce in the end because it felt like a terrible ass pull

I think Cloooney was a very good Bruce Wayne.

Dennis O'Neil and Englehart
