We understand that when a character spends decades fighting crime in the comics, it's hard to come up with something new and different in a story.

When your character is as weird as Batman, that quest can lead to some plots that, while they might make sense at the time, years later they have you wondering how they ever got away with it. Consider the unbelievable methods Batman has used to keep his true identity secret, some of which you may have missed if you don't read all the comics. The weirdest ones are related at TVOM.
