Though Batman is typically thought of as a hero, he also occasionally commits acts that seem decidedly villainous. Since the character’s creation in 1939, Batman has grown to become one of the most popular and iconic heroes in pop culture. Over the decades, many actors have played Batman in live-action, giving voice to a range of differing interpretations of the character. That said, one thing that rarely changes is the overall perception that Batman is primarily a force for good.
