A major critique of the genre is that it simply represents an adolescent male power fantasy; and presents a world view that valorises masculinist individualism.

    1 Detective Comics #27: The very first glimpse we get of the guy and already he looks pissed. 2 The first time we see Batman’s origin. It, um, won’t be the last. But modern retellings invariably discard this candlelit oath- making bit of business, likely deeming it hokey. Which: sure it is. But to skip it does a grave disservice; that oath is who Batman is. 3 For the very first time, the Joker strikes. 4 Thirty-eight years after that gruesome first kill, the Englehart/ Rogers/Austin team would pay fannish homage to it—and to a lot of Batman’s history—during their acclaimed run. 5 Enter: the pixie-booted pre- pubescent! Brought on board just a year after Batman’s first appearance to lighten the mood, Robin doubled sales and touched off a vogue for kid sidekicks. But! 6 (Detail of above page.) For decades, Robin’s steadfast appearance at Batman’s side has invited snide jokes and innuendo. Perhaps this was inevitable, even fated. Some unfortunate kerning in his introductory scroll (“ . .takes under his protect- ing mantle GUYS WHERE’S THE SPACE BETWEEN ‘AN’ AND ‘ALLY’ AW GEEZ STOP THE DAMN PRESSES”) couldn’t have helped matters. 7 Robin’s chirpy presence made for a sunnier Batman. His rogues’ gallery felt it too: suddenly mass-murdering became passé and petty larceny was au courant. Take this goon: Joe Coyne, the Penny Plunderer, and his “crime symbol.” In Gotham’s underworld, ya gotta have a gimmick. 8 In the ’50s, Batman’s supporting cast swelled with masked hangers-on.
