People Keep Forgetting The Hyphen in Spider-Man, now they're adding one to Batman.
Batman did originally have a hyphen, but it was dropped. Forget about it. The hyphen is dead.

Now we need r/RespectTheHyphenless for when people say "Bat-Man, Super-Man, Aqua-man, Fire-Storm, Dead-Pool, Wolver-ine, etc."

I will. I swear it on my life. (No, that wasn't overdramatic. I think it's perfectly appropriate for the situation.)

They took it from Spider-Man and gave it to Batman.
Since I apparently can’t post an actual post in this community, totally unrelated, I will leave this link here so you can enjoy the headline. Are you cheating or just having more sex with your spouse?

Diabolical. Why can't these people remember Spider-Man's hyphen, but instead remember one that's not even in use anymore? It makes no sense!

Y'know what? I, too, am disturbed by the lack of gargoyles in modern architecture.
