The religion of Batman, Bruce Wayne< Return to Religious Affiliation of Comics Book Characters< Return to Famous Episcopalians< Return to Famous Catholics.

This type of cross, with its flared rounded ends, is known as a "cross bottony." The cross bottony appears on the flag of Maryland.

It is an official symbol of the state of Maryland, whose colonial government was formed by Anglicans who had managed to gain dominance in the originally Catholic colony. The cross bottony is often found on Episcopalian churches and associated with Episcopal/Anglican imagery, although it is not an official symbol of the denomination.

Left: When Tim Drake travels ten years into the future, he sees the headstone of Bruce Wayne (Batman): a Christian cross.

Note that most of the headstones in this cemetary are not crosses. The choice of a cross for Bruce Wayne's headstone is not an accident, and was not a default choice. Perhaps the future Bruce Wayne will be more actively religious than the contemporary character. This headstone may have been selected by Bruce Wayne's wife, possibly Selena Kyle.

A later panel shows Kyle's headstone, which is not a cross, despite the fact that she has been portrayed as a Catholic in some comics. Source: Teen Titans #1. Geoff Johns, pencilled by Mike Mc.

Given the wealth of support for both major theories about Batman's religious background (Catholic and Episcopalian), it seems most likely that both are correct, and that Bruce Wayne's father (the source of Batman's surname, English heritage, wealth and social standing) was an Episcopalian, while his mother (the key source of Bruce's early religious upbringing and ingrained religious feelings) was a Catholic. Bruce Wayne's ancestry or ethnic heritage is touched upon in a few sources, including the graphic novel Batman: Scottish Connection.

Anthony Pires, a reader of this page, has helpfully clarified some facts relating to this: In this story, Bruce Wayne is specifically asked if he has Scottish heritage. Batman's surname - "Wayne" - is, in fact, of English origin. From Answers. com (http: //www. May 2. 00. 7). Wayne. Usage: English. From an occupational surname meaning "wagon maker", derived from Old English wægn "wagon".

Despite this textual source refuting Scottish heritage, some fans and commentators have mistakenly referred to Bruce Wayne's "Scottish heritage." This may be due, in part, to their seen the title of Batman: The Scottish Connection without actually reading the book. As Batman's religious affiliation is listed as "Episcopalian/Catholic (lapsed)" in various places, we have noticed a few people who incorrectly interpret this as an indicator that Batman is a "lapsed Catholic" who has now become an Episcopalian. This is certainly not the case. What is meant is that Batman is an "Episcopalian/Catholic" who is lapsed in the bi- denominational upbringing of his childhood. It is a valid observation that children raised in homes with a split religious identity are more likely to be lapsed or religiously non- observant as adults than children of parents with a united religious identity.

Batman is certainly no exception to this trend, although it is possible to think of many reasons other than his parents' inter- faith marriage for his lack of traditional religious observation and identification as an adult. Batman's religious affiliation was mentioned in Newsweek. Steven Waldman and Michael Kress, "Belief. Watch: Good Fight", published in Newseek, cover- dated 1.

June 2. 00. 6, page 1. Many comic book fans regard Batman as an atheist or agnostic, albeit one who has personally witnessed the fact that powerful god- like entities and gods of mythological pantheons actually exist. Batman has appeared in literally thousands of stories, and not all of these are in agreement with regards to the character's theological views.

On rare occasions, stories have been published in which Batman has simply identified himself as an atheist or a Christian. It is reasonable to assume that, as with other people, Batman's precise beliefs, spirituality and relationship to God vary over the years, and sometimes shift depending on his experiences. The religious aspects of Batman's character also vary depending on the writer. Above: During a harrowing experience with time travel Bruce Wayne witnessed once again the murder of his parents at the hands of a mugger.

After Batman and Superman have righted the timeline and returned to the proper present, Batman visits the graves of his parents, Thomas and Martha Wayne.
