On the other hand, I'm not sure we should assume that the Batplane is ineffective in this regard. I seem to recall that it can fly perfectly well at subsonic speeds, and even has VTOL capability so it can hover directly over criminals about to get their butts bat-whupped, casting a really gigantic batlike shadow. I bet that would not only sear awareness of the Bat-brand into your average criminal's head, it would be more than a little intimidating to boot.<br /><br />Certainly a lot more intimidating than the Whirly Bat.Scotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09112215621728247275noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2856236869724526974.post-30632963998790854002009-06-01T00:31:22.018-04:002009-06-01T00:31:22.018-04:00Although it was in the 60's, and I'm not sure if i...Although it was in the 60's, and I'm not sure if it would count as canon..... but the 60's tv show did show Batman using a "Bat-thermos", or it may have been the batman movie, but either way, why in the heck would Bruce Wayne bother with creating a thermos to hold soup that had a bat symbol on it?

Batman has bat-themed everything, but Iron-Man doesn't buy especially color-coordinated vehicles (not that he needs them with being able to fly and all) and gizmos with his Iron-Man Logo on it. <br /><br />Tony Stark does, however use Iron-Man to promote his company Stark Enterprises by (initially in the comics at least) pretending that Iron Man is an employee. <br /><br />I suppose that ROI is important for any bajillionaire industrialist.MrDave2176https://www.blogger.com/profile/11548562250094639757noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2856236869724526974.post-91643813205537353852009-05-29T14:19:21.143-04:002009-05-29T14:19:21.143-04:00First of all - great blog.

In any event, Gotham always seems to have a large amount of both types of crime despite the efforts of batman, but, let's face it, that's because a world where batman and his methods were effective in reducing overall crime would lead to boring comic stories.Phaedrusnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2856236869724526974.post-12159485556649650892009-05-29T12:38:13.333-04:002009-05-29T12:38:13.333-04:00Batman may be striving his best to maintain a dist...Batman may be striving his best to maintain a distinction between himself and the police, or from any vigilante (ie: discount brands/products). His albeit ridiculous obsession with bat imagery does indeed offer an effective brand identification. We can always be assured that work that bears the bat signal is up to a certain standard.<br /><br />Perhaps the specific shape of the bat plane has undiscovered cloaking properties?<br /><br />Additionally, I contest the suggestion that an Apache helicopter would adequately replace a supersonic fighter, especially since a large part of Batman's utility is arriving before the police, often while the crime is still in progress.Rain Kinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10109280649022934314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2856236869724526974.post-39612632645528414052009-05-29T12:33:11.066-04:002009-05-29T12:33:11.066-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.Rain Kinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10109280649022934314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2856236869724526974.post-35320838254252738672009-05-29T12:20:18.815-04:002009-05-29T12:20:18.815-04:00Perhaps the absurdity of the batplane is a signall...Perhaps the absurdity of the batplane is a signalling mechanism akin to peacock's tails: I have enough crime-fighting resources to make a plane this stupid, clearly I am fit enough to stop your dastardly deeds.kmitchamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12584211323081085772noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2856236869724526974.post-1980695101137930602009-05-29T11:59:29.132-04:002009-05-29T11:59:29.132-04:00Phaedrus makes an erroneous counterfactual compari...Phaedrus makes an erroneous counterfactual comparison here, since the key comparison is not between Gotham before and after, but Gotham now with Batman and Gotham if Batman had not been present. It seems quite possible that the psychotic element would be reduced, but would Gotham really be any better off totally governed by mob bosses? The econometric truism still holds: treatment effect is hard to do.<br /><br />Also, this may be a bit out of the spirit of the blog, but... the comic creators *are* trying to build a brand, aren't they?

In fact, isn't that the essence of the Joker's assesment of batman: that his very vanity draws the weird and psychotic criminal element to Gotham and leads them to commit evil deeds. Perhaps batman would have more success eliminating crime by retiring.Phaedrusnoreply@blogger.com
