7. Batman

(DC Comics)

Yes, Batman. Batman was a vampire. Like, a couple of times.

One of which is in the friggin’ awesome episode of Batman: The Brave and the Bold, in which he stalks the entire Justice League International on the satellite. Great episode, seriously, please check that one out.

But the most famous time when Batman was a vampire was in the three-part Red Rain elseworlds series. Those three books are Batman & Dracula: Red Rain; Batman: Bloodstorm; and Batman: Crimson Mist. And yes, those titles are pretty embarrassing when viewed from a modern perspective. I mean, “Bloodstorm”? Really? Eeeesh. But these three specials follow a longform narrative arc.

Part the first: Batman fights Dracula and ends up beating him, but gets bitten in the end. Part the second: Batman battles his inner demons and his bloodlust before asking to be staked to avoid turning into a monster. Part the third: Batman is reawakened as a full fledged monster who goes on an insane killing spree before finally being put down, once and for all. Not the best storyline, but worth checking out if you think it sounds like fun.
