The Batman universe is a world of mystery, suspense and intense action set against the dark backdrop of Gotham City. In this world, Bruce Wayne, a haunted billionaire, becomes a vigilante Batman after the tragic murder of his parents. Not only Batman is at the center of this universe, but also a milieu of legendary villains such as the Joker, Riddler, Kitty, Penguin and Scarecrow, each pushing the Dark Knight to the limit.

Although the night belongs to these famous characters, during the day the city itself is the center of attention. Gotham City, with its dark alleys, corrupt officers, and crime-ridden streets, is an important part of Batman's story. Also integral to the Batman universe are additional characters such as loyal butler Alfred, Commissioner Gordon, and various members of the extended "Bat-Family" such as Robin, Batgirl, and Nightwing.

The Batman universe is the perfect metaphor for the ongoing battle between good and evil, with ever-expanding dynamics, deep moral stories, and complex character development.
