...in the last few years.He used to be some corny villain (to some,not me) but now he is like the godfather of gotham.What do you guys say?

I say the notion of a puppet as the leader of an organized mob was one of the dumbest ideas in Bat-history and that Black Mask isn't nearly as corny. At all.

I don't read Batman mainstream comics so I don't know why he's become so popular, but I do like the character very much. Part of what appeals him to me is his backstory. I find it interesting that he has a lot in common with Bruce Wayne. Both were the sons of rich men, but unlike Wayne, Roman went down the dark path and became Black Mask. I also like his visual look, almost a cross between Red Skull and Two-Face - very creepy!

but unlike Wayne, Roland went down the dark path and became Black Mask.

Roman Sionis, not Roland.

BM grew popular after the events of War Games.
