because he can die maybe?Why would Batman need to wear armor???
Really not a fan of any depiction of Batman in which he's wearing armor

Okay fine Nolan gets a pass because he tried to tell the story of a "real world" Batman, however silly of a premise that may or may not be depending on who you ask.
For everyone else it's.
I still don't see the issue with Batman wearing Armor...there has not been one logical argument against a psychotic detective protecting himself while engaging in vigilantism

He can dodge bullets and can engage about 15-20 men at once in hand to hand combat.
Giving Batman an armored suit would be like giving someone from here a baseball bat in a fight against a 5 year old. It's overkill. He doesn't need it.
This breh said dodge bullets

Why would Batman need to wear something for protection. Protection from WHAT?
When you were a kid and you were watching a Batman cartoon, did it ever look like Batman wore armor? Did you ever question why he didn't?
I don't when it happened, maybe with Nolan... but I do find it curious that now all of a sudden we need all our superheroes to have ground in plausibility even though it was never plausibility that hooked them in the first place. Look at some of the responses in this thread suggesting that Batman needs to wear armor so that he could protect himself. Let me ask you a question at what age did you start to believe that. When did people STOP believing that Batman could do it all on his own?
What people don't realize is that in their attempt to plausibly justify some of these characters in real life settings they've subconsciously tore them down. Batman used to be a supreme ninja so skilled and so stealthy that he didn't need armor. Now he can't even patrol the streets of Gotham in a video game without having to wear a full bodied armored plate. You tell me which Batman sounds harder. You tell me which Batman sounds like the Batman you first fell in love with.
Protection from Bullets, Guns, RPG's, Explosions, Acid, Joker Gas, Fear Gas, 50 Cal' machine Guns, Demi Gods, Metamorphic Blades, Energy Weapons, Arcane Weaponry, Alien Technology.....
If your batman in the DC universe as an ordinary human some shyt just wont cut it. Batman is not Iron man. Iron man builds a suit for almost every contingency and bad guy he comes across. the batsuit is advanced but it protects only to a certain point. Batman knows he's outmatched by fighting the same villans who can breathe underwater or control anti matter. He knows he cant fight certain villans or even normal villans without wear and tear. The batsuit gives him an edge because even with all his abilities and instincts and fighting capabilities, he's still.... Only human.
And he knows that...
Your overthinking it....
Ask any body and normal person would you fight crime without a batsuit even if you had all of batman's abilities in REAL LIFE?

But it's not real life. Gotham is a fantasy setting. Batman isn't real. Batman's ABILITIES aren't real.
You say that Batman needs to wear armor to protect himself from all this shyt and yet he did just fine without it for like 60 years until adults needed a plausible explanation for their child like fantasies.
Even in the comics & cartoons batman has worn body armor of a sort dealing with bad guys...
Why is this such a big deal to you?
Times change, characters change... Think about it, if your reading a comic book and have batman tussle with a villian who can control water, it would be pretty fukking stupid and dumb having batman fight him without a contingency plan?! If batman goes in and fights a bad guy ill equipped and he gets his ass handed to him, As a reader myself, im thinking why the fukk would he fight him with no protection. If he goes in with a kick ass batsuit that Even's the odd's because the bad guy has super powers that's called being smart. Only an idiot brings a fukking knife to a gun fight!!!
WHY IS THAT SO HARD FOR YOU TO FIGURE OUT?!?!? You must be a troll or something, i swear... you are driving people crazy...

When doesn't Batman have a contingency plan. When does Batman ever arrive to the job ill equipped.Batman with his bare hands is more dangerous than 20 thugs with tommy guns. Why would someone who doesn't intend on being hit need to wear armor.

But batman wears armor in the comics. It's usually some type of Kevlar or a thin material that's harder than Kevlar.
