I hate to start the soccer debate again, but should or should not this page live at just Batman with the Comic hero page being at something like Batman (comic)? I'm just trying to be consistent here... --Robert W King 21:15, 3 February 2008 (CST)

No. This is correct as written. I've argued it before, and I'll keep saying it: some things own a name. There is only one Batman. The fact that there are also umpteen films and some people (Lord bless 'em) don't know the difference between The Batman and batsman doesn't change a thing. Everything else is disambiguation, including a cluster just on the comics, maybe, someday. Aleta Curry 21:54, 3 February 2008 (CST)
As Aleta noted, "The Batman" is the proper name for the 'ol caped crusader in most comic and film iterations. Stephen Ewen 23:29, 3 February 2008 (CST)
