I must say that i have learned a lot from the various Batman Animated shows. Aside from learning about how animation should be and all that great stuff, i've also learned a lot about the human psyche. For example, i just got this paper back and one of the paragraphs was about an obsessive and vindictive man. The teacher said i did a really nice job on that one. Honestly, i didn't think too highly of it. I mean, that's just everyday talk to me. Ya know, obsession and revenge, that is Batman. Anyone else learn anything like that?

Yeah, I know what you mean optimal. I haven't had as good as an expierience as you, but I noticed in quite a few subjects in school, Batman has "helped" me get better grades in a few. Like, I still take spelling (good thing too..I would have had no idea what a gridiron was until now! lol), and a couple words I knew what they meant already cuz of Batman and such. It's really cool how somtimes that works out. Obviously, Batman isn't "trash"..which my mom claims comic books are...mainly just the ones where they wack off ppl's heads though..

P.S. Try getting Spawn to teach ya somthing! Geesh...

"Mommy! Isn't it nice to whip ppl w/ chains?!"
"No! where did you hear that?"
"Spawn taught me! See, watch!"

That's the very reason I'm in this "Batman group". You know, some people are the hardcore Star Trek followers, others Star Wars, etc.

To further your point, I have a few examples myself. In my math class I had to write an essay (I know, he assigned us essays, in a math class!? lol) about a mathematician. 800 words! I'm not a math major, how in the heck would I know that!? Well flipping through the book I found a pic that caught my eye. It was the same poster Jervis Tech had in his office of the Mad Tea Party. I found out that Charles Dodgson, the creator of the Alice stories, is a mathematician, and by doing a little research fueled by curiosity, I learned a lot!

And in my psych class, I already knew about Multiple Personality Dissorder completely because between BTAS and TNBA, Harvey Two Face is an excellent, if not the best, example you could come up with!

Two years ago in my math class, i had to read a novel.

But, back on topic, i totally agree w/ your Two-Face thing. He and Scarface/Vetrilloquist. Thanks Batman for learnin' me:)!

Another one is wanting something you can't have. for example, deep freeze, that dude wanted to be like mr. freeze.
