Soul of the Dark Knight: Batman as Mythic Figure in Comics and Film
Alex M. Wainer
Offers a study of the comics genre and language, how these were used to create Batman, and how that character's longevity is largely due to the medium's unique formal qualities. It argues that Batman's core appeal is his mythic nature which allows him to transcend changes in reader tastes, the vicissitudes of the comics industry, and the changing media landscape.
