As part of my Batman Graphic Novel Canon read through I decided to run the first of what will be many ‘Super Fan Surveys.’

In it I asked 8 questions regarding The Dark Knight!

After a huge response I’ve compiled the results and we have come up with the final top scorers. Below are the most popular answers given as part of the survey. Enjoy!
The Favourite Batman Movie
[spacer height=”20px”]
The Dark Knight
It’s no suprise that The Dark Knight was the most popular pick, grossing a huge 40% of the vote. This is the only comic book movie to win an Oscar and every performance from the film is unrivalled. Christopher Nolan’s Masterpiece set the tone for every comic book movie to come and in my opinion is the best ever put to film.

Second & Third Place
Batman Begins
Batman Mask Of The Phantasm
Best Actor To Portray Batman

Christian Bale
This was one of the closest in the Survey. Christian Bale who portrayed Batman in The Dark Knight Trilogy walked away with an impressive 30% of the vote. Bale is an Oscar winning actor who has played the caped crusader the most times on film thus far and really deserved this win.

Second & Third Place
Ben Affleck
Kevin Conroy
Best Batmobile

The Tumbler
Getting the hat trick for The Dark Knight Series is The Tumbler. This beast of a Batmobile helped to really define Nolan’s Batman as one of the best in cinema history. It’s tank like features provided an arsenal for The Dark Knight that is almost unmatched.

The Joker
Probably the most obvious choice on this list is The Joker as the Best Batman Villain. The Clown Prince of Crime came in with a staggering 41% of the votes with second place racking up a mere 10%. Batman’s greatest foe still remains at the top!

Second & Third Place
Ra’s Al Ghul
Bane
Best Batman Graphic Novel
Batman Year One & The Killing Joke
With Exactly the same amount of votes, Batman Year One is tied with The Killing Joke. Both are great pieces of work that have really stood the test of time and go on to influence many stories involving the character.

Second & Third Place
The Dark Knight Returns
Arkham Asylum: A Serious House on Serious Earth
Best Robin
[spacer height=”20px”]
Dick Grayson
The Robin who has been there through it all knocked all his predecessors off the top spot. Over the years we have Dick Grayson transform from Robin, To Nightwing, To Batman and even to a Secret Agent. The character has a rich history so it’s no surprise that he came out on top!

Second & Third Place
Tim Drake
Damien Wayne
Best Batman Writer
[spacer height=”20px”]
Grant Morrison
With what is arguably the best run in comics, Grant Morrison comes out on top as the greatest Batman writer. He has had several hits with Arkham Asylum, Gothic and his unbelievable run on the character from 2006 onward. Well Deserved

Second & Third Place
Scott Snyder
Frank Miller
Best Artist
[spacer height=”20px”]
Greg Capullo
After his outstanding run with Scott Snyder, Capullo comes out on top. The duo knocked out several classic books in their time together and it’s easy to see with the muscleman came out on top. I highly recommend that you pick up some of the artist’s work if you haven’t already!
