Bat girl, too, I think she always wanted to be with the main guy.

Anyone else think this was about Bershawn Jackson first? Sad news nonetheless.

Even though Adam West is the most likely to be dead, I was trying to figure it out between Christian Bale and Bershawn Jackson

Strewth, the terms of reference with you blokes. It so happens that long before 'comic books', or dungy paper as we call them in the outback, there was John Batman, founder of Melbourne, who was one of Daniel's ancestors. That's Melbourne Australia btw, not a suburb of Gotham City. Anyway it's a shame what happened, he was making a sort of comeback. Frustrated athlete, bad divorce, throw in some booze and a fast car on an empty highway and there you go.

This happens because a) He's not well known to us in the US, b) Relatively, he wasn't very fast (not trying to be a jerk, just saying), and c) Internet is anonymous buddy, makes people "brave".

He doesn't die in TDKR, but someone takes his place as Batman. Not a spolier either as that is common knowledge to anyone that has read a DC comic book.
