I'll bet you had no idea...

...that Batman was a Catholic. Or so someone has been arguing. I haven't read any of the articles properly, and don't quite agree with what he's saying, but I find it a refreshing and somewhat amusing change from the usual things we come across on the blogosphere.

I know that one of Bruce Wayne's parents was Catholic. Does that count if he ended up raised by Alfred?

Sed contra: Iron Man has been called "the Catholic Batman": http://enbrethiliel.blogspot.com/2008/05/jmj-catholic-daedalus-catholic-icarus-i.html

You'll find more Catholics among Marvel's pantheon of heroes than in the DC universe, I suspect.
