All you have to do is look to Pérez and Rucka. It's all there.
Here’s to hoping. But Hollywood is infamous at continuously failing the Open Book Test. I cite the FANTASTIC FOUR movies, DUNE, Stephen King’s DREAMCATCHER, Stephen King’s ‘SALEM’S LOT, GHOST RIDER, X-MEN 3, etc., etc., etc.

To each his own. I liked ANT-MAN for what it was: A fun popcorn flick. But by no means a classic.

It also helps that (at least in the comics) Batman has the best rogues gallery of any super-hero ever, with the only real competition being Spider-Man.
But the reason that Batman resonates more than perhaps any other super hero --- and also the reason Marvel characters were so superior to DC characters for so many years --- is “the ghost,” or a really compelling backstory. For a good explanation on that, see:
Hmmm. Well, I guess that's why they got the guy from Chuck to play the lead. (And I can't believe that I used to like that show. ) Although in all fairness, Zachary Levi also played Fandral in Thor: The Dark World and Thor: Ragnarok.

Don't forget where Rudd came from. But Levi looks like he could his arse. (And he could, because... SHA-ZAM!!)
Believe it or not, he's walkin' on air.
He never thought he could feel so free-ee-EEE!
You're know they're rebooting that, right?
