Batman, originally referred to as the Bat-Man and still referred to at times as The Batman, is a fictional character, a comic book superhero co-created by artist Bob Kane and writer Bill Finger (although only Kane receives official credit), appearing in publications by DC Comics. The character first appeared in Detective Comics #27 in May 1939.

Additionally known as the Caped Crusader, the Dark Knight, the Dark Knight Detective, and the World's Greatest Detective; in the original version of the story and the vast majority of subsequent retellings, Batman's secret identity is Bruce Wayne, a billionaire playboy, industrialist, and philanthropist. Having witnessed the murder of his parents as a child, he swore revenge on crime, an oath tempered with the greater ideal of justice. Bruce trains himself both physically and intellectually and dons a bat-themed costume in order to fight crime. Batman operates in the fictional American Gotham City, assisted by various supporting characters including his main sidekick Robin, occasional assistance from former sidekick Batgirl and hero Nightwing, the police commissioner James Gordon, and his butler Alfred Pennyworth, and fights an assortment of villains influenced by the characters' roots in film and pulp magazines. Unlike most superheroes, he does not possess any superpowers; he makes use of intellect, detective skills, science and technology, wealth, physical prowess, and intimidation in his war on crime.

In A Hero Sits Next Door, he watches Peter play strip poker with Wonder Woman.

In Brian in Love, Peter pretends to be Batman to Lois' Catwoman.

Peter, while dressed as Spider-Man, sings a song to the tune pf the 1960s Batman TV show theme (which, probably not coincidentally, starred Adam West in the title role) in Stewie Griffin: The Untold Story.

Batman get a completely unnecessary signal from Commissioner Gordon in FOX-y Lady.
