Compiled by a veteran writer of the comic series, this collection of essays explores Batman's motivations and actions, as well as those of his foes. Batman is a creature of the night, more about vengeance than justice, more plagued by doubts than full of self-assurance, and more darkness than light. He has no superpowers, just skill, drive, and a really well-made suit. One of the most recognized superheroes ever created, Batman has survived through campy TV shows and films, through actors like Adam West, Michael Keaton, and Christian Bale. It covers both the silly and the solemn, asking questions like Why is the Joker so good at pushing Batman's buttons? What does Batman's technology say about the times? Why are Batman's villains crazier than average? and Why is Batman the perfect, iconic American hero?

Batman Unauthorized: Vigilantes, Jokers, and Heroes in Gotham City
Enjoyed this quite a bit. I thought I'd left reading comments after some of the essays, but it seems not. I'm not going back to do so - I've been reading this over 6 years. That may seem bad, or that I was bored, but it's actually more a story of (a) being electronic, I read it a lot less often and (b) being electronic it got buried among all the other electronic downloads. Out of sight out of mind, as they say.
There were a few dumb essays in here, but for the vast majority it was a solid, even entertaining and informative, read. Some authors really know stuff and are smart; some are blowhards with obnoxious opinions. Worth a read if you enjoy The Batman or analyzing our infatuation with super heroes.
