Which DC Character Has The Biggest Fanbase At CBR?

[Red Wolf]

I'd say Batman.

I'd say Batman.

Batman was my first thought too. Even the ones who criticize Batman want him to be a 'better/more favorite' version of Batman... but still Batman. As opposed to the split fanbases like Flash, Green Lantern or Robin....

I would say it's between the members of the trinity...I mean they have their own pages on this site,,,, but between the three of them I'd give batman the edge in terms of fanbase.

Batman is number one if you count posts and threads for a single character, DC or Marvel, so I would say he has the biggest fanbase of anyone here. That doesn't mean his fans are the most vocal, however. In fact, as I mention every now and then, he doesn't even have an appreciation thread (even Peter Parker has one). No need to have one when you're at the top and have no competition for the cape and cowl.

I'd say Batman.

Sometimes it seems like Batman isn't even the most popular character in the Batman subforum.

I've noticed much love for Dick Grayson

Nightwing fans are insane. Certifiably.

There are times when Batman seems like the least popular character in his own subforum.

It makes me sad...

I don't think Batman has to worry about being least popular. There are so many "Favorite Batman artist" "moments" "bat gadget" "story" threads that if you combined them, it would take years to read.

Its very interesting how many Batfamily fans don't actually seem to care for Batman himself. I don't really get it, but ya you see it all the time.

Only 3 DC characters have their own sub-forums and Batman has the most individual threads of the three. And even right now there are more people viewing them than the other two so Batman. It's just...science.

Why? One of the reasons his franchise has been so robust (especially over the last 25 years or so) is because it has produced such a large number of strong spin-off characters and villains. Who are appealing in their own right but also when they play off him. The same holds true for him as well. The Batfranchise in that way is similar to the X-Franchise in that together the characters are greater than the sum of their parts or any one of them.

Not really. That's the discussion we were just having. When you actually enter the Batforum, you'll see that the characters being discussed the most are not Batman himself but each of the Robins, Batgirls, Gotham City Sirens and many of his rogues.

Don't get people started on which fans are "insane", "rabid", "annoying", etc. . . .

These days, I'm in that boat.
I'm a fan of the character in the past, but haven't cared in a while because of the directions DC's writers have taken the character since even before Rebirth began.

I don't think it's not caring about him. It's just that they care for the other characters more because they are easier to relate to than Batgod himself.
