    Default Batman as a Detective

    When did he get the moniker Darknight Detective/World’s Greatest Detective?

    What are like, the top ten mysteries this guy has solved?

    I have no clue but some a lot of detective work is to be found here:

    Batman issues by Paul Dini
    Batman issues by Ed Brubaker
    Gotham Central
    Batman Murderer Fugitive

    He's called the dark knight detective because he helps the GCPD solves many mystery that stumped them and capturing the criminals but when did he get them I don't know but in story it should be as he build his reputation in Gotham but before he met Ra's al Ghul

    As for World's Greatest Detective I don't know but the biggest case I can think of is Identity Crisis, though he came to the answer at the same time the murderer confessed

    Batman figured it out and told the League, while in another place, the murderer revealed themselves accidentally to a League member not present at Batman's meeting.

    Okay that doesn’t sound nearly as silly.

    Old-school Batman wasn't a super martial artist who can fight an entire roomful of guys .

    Originally he actually used detective skills more than beating guys up. It's why one of his comics was called "Detective Comics".

    Well Detective Comics was pre-established, Batman was introduced in Detective Comics - and he just went around shooting people and beating them up as much as he used detective skills when initially introduced.
