Trivia

 * Batman is the second-oldest character to appear on Death Battle, debuting one year after Superman.
 * Batman is the second DC comics character on Death Battle.
 * Batman is one of three characters (the other two being Superman and Bowser) who have appeared three times in Screwattack fighting shows.
 * Batman is the second combatant to return for another episode, the first being Leonardo and the third and fourth being Superman and Goku, the fifth being Charizard, and the sixth being Shadow the Hedgehog.
 * He is also the first combatant who has both lost and won a Death Battle. Coincidentally, both of his opponents were from the same company.
 * He uses the same sprite for both matches (with his second appearance slightly touched up to difference him from his first appearance), making him the second character to reuse the same sprite, the first is Leonardo.
 * Batman single-handedly broke two of the longest winning streaks in Death Battle history: Marvel's three wins beforehand with Rogue, Thor, and Spider-Man, and Disney's four wins against Warner Bros with its aforementioned Marvel characters and Luke Skywalker. He is the first DC comics character to win a Death battle match against a Marvel comics character.
 * Ironically, his loss against Spider-Man is what gave Marvel and Disney those leads on other series/companies.
 * Batman's sprite was custom made on Mugen, borrowing elements from some other professional sprites such as Cyclops.
 * Batman's vehicle, the Batmobile, made cameo appearances in Iron Man VS Lex Luthor and Joker VS Sweet Tooth.
