Batman as of the name the cape indicately represents Bruce Wayne to manuver and GLIDE towards anything within range. It's also an addition to the costum itself so fashion check THERE!!!!!!
It is mostly because he needs to look lke a bat to spread fear to criminals of Gotham City. Originally, Bob Kane wanted Batman to have wings but Bill Finger changed it to a cape (thank god)
Batman wears a cape because: 1.He can use it to frighten criminals 2.It is a lot better to glide than to fall to the wall. 3.He can use it to cover himself from fire.
- First, to look like a bat ; the cape symbolizing the wings - Super-heroes (like superman) are nowadays knights (remember that Batman is also known as the dark knight)and the cape is symbolizing this relation.
it's used to glide,camouflage,look cool,part of a bat,deflect bullets,flame resistant and scare people, What is a bat without his wings? A rat??... Ratman... hmmm... doesn't really work as well
it gives him a ton of ability's 1:block 2:glide 3:strike fear into hearts of criminals 4:hide in shadows 4:show off for cat woman 5:look cool for everyone else too
For give him some style of course. I mean he like to sit down in a statue and cover his body with his cape right, so that he'll looks cool and spooky u know like this pitcure over here....:
