Parabéns, Homem-Morcego!

Faz exatos 75 anos que na edição 27 de Detective Comics, o mundo conhecia o Batman, um mix de vários personagens como o Sombra, Zorro e outros heróis pulp. Passando por inúmeras reformulações, o Homem Morcego tornou-se com o tempo um um dos maiores ícones da cultura pop, lembrado por vezes como um símbolo de justiça no nosso mundo.


Da história oriunda da imaginação de Bob Kane e Bill Finger, surgiram inúmeros personagens e outras histórias memoráveis, permeando vários gêneros de narrativa. Nesses últimos anos o Batman já passou por inúmeras situações, desde as mais mundanas, como investigar pequenos crimes em Gotham, até as mais fantásticas, como derrotar o deus do Mal e impedir que ele comprometa a existência do Multiverso.

Mesmo vivendo num mundo habitado por “deuses”, Bruce Wayne superou suas próprias limitações e criou algo maior do que ele próprio, uma espécie de Übermensch dos tempos modernos que converte em força tudo o que o atinge. Uma lenda, como bem traduziu Christopher Nolan em Batman Begins. E proporcional a grandeza do herói, deve ser a força de seus antagonistas. Hoje nomes como Coringa, Mulher Gato, Charada, Pinguim e até mesmo o Bane, vivem no coletivo popular como sinônimos de vilões (ou anti-heróis, dependendo das premissas que você assume).


Para mim, o que torna o personagem tão interessante é justamente essa força de vontade (por vezes desenfreada) de fazer justiça, transcendendo a “fragilidade” humana, tornando-o praticamente invencível. Poderia citar inúmeras obras clássicas, mas deixo a você, leitor e amigo que nos acompanha no Terra Zero a dizer quais as melhores histórias do Morcego e quais os momentos mais memoráveis nesses 75 anos de história. Por agora, resta apenas dizer: Parabéns Batman!

Não é atoa que é o MEU herói favorito desde o filme de 89, e vamos que vamos:



Powers:



Dark Knight. Caped Crusader. World’s Greatest Detective. Whatever you know him as, wherever you know him from—the blockbuster movies, TV shows, video games, cartoons, or millions of comics—Batman is proof you don’t need superpowers to be a superhero… and the poster boy for what a bad childhood can do to you.


Forget his Batarangs, Batmobile, or Utility Belt filled with high-tech weapons. 

Batman is the most feared superhero of all, because he’s pushed himself to the absolute pinnacle of human achievement. He’s a brilliant detective who’s mastered fighting techniques the world’s barely heard of. An Olympic-caliber athlete with a plan for every occasion, Batman’s seemingly always five steps ahead of his foes. But in his crusade against injustice, two questions always loom: How far will he go to protect the innocent, and will he sacrifice his humanity along the way?
