uh...depending on which Batman version you're talkin about.

West was superb as the campy Batman that reflected the comics in the 60s.

Keaton looked like the hardcore Batman that comics decided to return to after the campy 60s. He may not look like much of a Bruce Wayne..but in costume, I think he pulled off the menacing Batman quite nicely.

I have to agree with Spy. It really depends which kind of portrayal you go for. West and Keaton are so different in style and in when they did the role, so it is not a fair question to judge one based on the other. Now, if you had asked who was better- Keaton or Val Kilmer, then that would be more fair in my opinion.

Nah I hated those two films, myself. Keaton was miscast, but that is just my personal opinion, I am not bashing on anyone who says they prefer him as Batman.

Kevin Conroy (voiceover for the animated version).

Adam West of the two available choices as he had more of a lively character (though not the character type I like in the comics/animation). Michael Keaton appeared rather stiff, but it could also be due to the lack of flexibility of the costume.

Hmm the same could be said for Kilmer. It is nothing personal against Keaton, you know. In my opinion, he is simply not the best there is.
