In today's Batman #46 by Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo, we meet up again with Bruce Wayne. His mind healed from the trauma he suffered as a child. With no desire to seek retribution for the deaths of his parents upon the villainy of Gotham. With a beard and also, frankly, getting jiggy with it.

Because when you take the Bat out of the Batman, you are left with the Man. And this is a Man who has sex. Despite the existence of his son, Damian, this is still a rare thing for the comics.

However this Man who still has a detective's mind. Is this a sign of a residual Battiness in there somewhere?

Hey, he may no longer use his skills to fight crime, but at least he can be super-intuitive to his girlfriend's needs… and that's the greatest (and rarest) superpower of all.

Or should that be fiancée? Remember Bruce, DC says you can't actually get married….
