I like to put it this way.

Television is like binoculars and the internet is like a microscope.

Watch TV and you'll see all sorts of things from a distance, and kind of get an idea of how they interconnect. A good general idea of what's going on.

Use the internet and you'll end up spending six months arguing over which version of Batman had the most effective utility belt.

It was Adam West's. Shark repellent.

Best utility belt, best Batman, best Catwoman, second best Catwoman, second best Joker....1966 Batman was awesome.

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as "utility belt", is in fact, a Bat-Belt, or as I've recently taken to calling it, a Bat plus Belt. A utility belt is not a Bat-Gadget unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning Bat system made useful by the Bat-Sharkspray, Batarangs and vital components comprising a full Bat-Equipment as defined by Batman.

First, you've proven my point about how the interwebs can lead us into stupid, inane, meaningless arguments that prove nothing.

Second, comic book Batman always carries krytonite in case Supes goes rogue, and that beats some surfing gear any day of the week.

Only if it's pink kryptonite.

[–] Dagwood222@lemm.ee 1 points 5 months ago

It's kinda problematic. 'Rainbow kryptonite' would be more appropriate,
