Do you prefer a dark Batman (like in TDK and in Batman: TAS) or do you prefer the campy-friendly Batman (like in the sixties comics and also in Batman: Brave & Bold series)?

Dark Batman

Seriously?

If they were fighting, the Campy Batman would smoke Dark Batman. But I prefer Dark Batman

I like Batman as a whole....well, except for that god-awful The Batman Cartoon.

I prefer Dark Batman, but Campy Batman rules too.

WD take that back about the Batman cartoon

Either way is fine. I prefer a darker Batman, but campy Batman is ok, as well...

Adam West is godlike in his Batman-ess.

Honestly, I love the Dark Batman. Campy Batman was ok too, though.

I hate when Batman is made into a campy character. Give me a dark & brooding Batman over a campy Batman any day of the week. Btw, I love Adam West but his take on Batman absolutely sucked.

Dark or campy?

It's Batman. Not Babboonman.

Dark Batman every single time.

campy batman is much more enjoyable for me. dark batman just seems like a *****. likes hes the only person to lose his parents.

Yeah, but not many others actually have their parents murdered right in front of them at the age of 8.

Campy.

Truth

Christian Bale Batman was dark?

I thought he was angry and hoarse.

Well wasn't the Joel Schumacher Batman a third Batman that Kevin Smith refers to as "gay batman"?

Dark Batman mainly because thats the batman i like from the animated series and from some of the comics i've read.

I don't want to paraphrase Smodcast too much, but consider this. DC is a business and they know what people like and what pays. You will always have a Dark Batman cause that's what the adults and base like. You will always have a campy Batman cause that's what the kids like and how most kids get introduced to Batman in the first place. But Gay Batman...No one liked gay batman so you gotta at least appreciate those horrible movies in the sense that, how often do you really see gay batman anymore?

I thought he was angry and hoarse. Dark doesn't necessarily equal sociopathic. Frank Miller's Batman isn't the character at all. I thought Bale did fine, the only problem is that the writers didn't make him as intelligent as he is in the comics.

Campy Adam West Batman once got overpowered in a bar. Dark Batman would've taken that gang apart. I go for Dark BM, even though Adam West version was the 1st one I saw.
