The internet spoke about him, including big names such as Gizmodo, Cheezburger and 9Gag. Do a simple Google image search of him and you will know how popular Batman is.

While Batman has finally fallen to 33 months of prison time in Singapore, and as the popular saying goes, you either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villain.

A ‘Batman bin Suparman Fan Club‘ page on social networking site Facebook has garnered nearly 11,000 likes so far.
