The Goddamn Batman is the bat-themed Anti-hero, eerily based on NO SHIT SHERLOCK Holmes and Zorro in a film noire style. Created by DC comics in the late 30s and early 40s as a form of propaganda to promote and instill faith in J. Edgar Hoover's so called scientific approach to police investigations of crime and criminal behaviour by the FBI. Unlike the FBI from this time, Batman is free from politics and always gets the right man unlike Hoover and Purvis who have become known for faking evidence just so they could gun someone down like Pretty Boy Floyd because he was causing the lulz.
Batman wasn't exactly original or ground breaking, and certainly wasn't the first comic book character of his kind. You can tell because by the time Batman's creator got into the business, all the other good furry-themed superhero animals were obviously taken. However, Batman is said to be among the first complex comic book characters, as he is constantly dealing with his own personal demons, such as the loss of his parents, and his closet homosexuality as presented in the text below.
