Catholic Church Demands Rights To ‘Caped Crusaders’ From DC Comics
  |  @   |  

Earlier this week, sources in Vatican City revealed that the Catholic Church has long been unhappy with DC Comics’ use of the term “Caped Crusaders” to describe comic book heroes Batman and Robin. The contention is apparently based on actual historical figures that were the original caped crusaders, the Knights Templar.

The Catholic Church, which boasts an estimated 1.2 billion followers, has decided to produce documents from the period of the Crusades that contain period art showing the Knights with their capes and cloaks. Additionally, tapestries and other art pieces have long been known to exist, but nothing was ever done about it. Their argument states that if anyone has the right to be known as such, it should be the warriors who risked life and limb to protect travelers.

  |

Watch Now: Playing Video Games Makes Batman Angry In ‘The Dark Knight Rages’
  |  

Batman is one of the greatest superheroes the world has ever known. He’s a brilliant detective and a master at kicking ass and looking awesome while doing it all. He has encountered a rogues gallery of freaks, monsters, psychos, and other devious criminal minds who would make Hannibal Lecter soil his britches. But for some reason he just can’t seem to get a handle on playing video games. In fact, they tend to make him irrationally angry, as you’ll see in this clever short video The Dark Knight Rages put together by the little comedic geniuses at Crave Online.

You can watch the video here below.

If you’ve ever wanted to see Batman and his youthful ward in crimefighting Robin attempt to bond over a hearty round of Xbox 360 that degenerates into an all-out brutal smackdown with Robin wondering out loud why his suit has nipples, then you have come to the right place. This vid features a lot of references to Batman movies and TV shows past and present, but come on Bats, that whole “my parents are dead” bit will only excuse so much in life.
