Batman wears a winged suit which he can use to cover himself, and he talks in a low, whispering voice. Apparently, he is best known for saying "I'm Batman."

Notes
- We cannot canonically support any notion that Batman might have something to do with the Joker. To suggest such a link would be irresponsible of us.
- The design of Optimus Primal's bat form is an homage to Batman, whose action figure license was also held at the time by Kenner. His designer chose the black color scheme to repaint him into Onyx Primal, enhancing the mold's inherent resemblance to Batman.[1]
- The color scheme and double life of Shattered Glass Ratbat is based on Batman. His secret identity color scheme, likewise, is based on Bruce Wayne's brown and mustard outfit from Batman: The Animated Series.
- Animated Searchlight's personality is based on Batman, specifically Frank Miller's extreme grim-n-gritty take on the character.
- Sam Witwicky remarks that shining a spotlight of a truck on a cloud would be an impractical method for contacting Optimus Prime in the Dark of the Moon novel, a reference to Batman's famous Bat-Signal.
- Daran Norris voiced Batman in the toy-pack-in DC Super Friends DVD. Frank Welker and Corey Burton voiced different verisons of The Dark Knight in The Brave and The Bold episode, Bat-Mite Presents; Batman's Strangest Cases. Lex Lang voiced the Dick Grayson Batman in The Knights Of Tomorrow, and Steven Blum voiced a Lego Batman. Hmm?
- Wally Wingert is a big fan of the 60's show. In fact, Wally even made a single called Adam West.
Foreign names
- Japanese: Batman (バットマン Battoman)
