This is almost too absurd to be believed, but, in part, that's why I believe it.
Oh, it's real. Apparently, last year, he got a settlement out of DC Comics for using the name:
"[T]he mayor ... was awarded damages by DC Comics after a lawsuit over the use of his town's name for the superhero Batman."
Too bad the city of Batman was founded hundreds of years ago.
hmmm... there migh tbe some hidden cash in some nearby landmark.
