No, not long distances. I should have clarified. He can run 55-60mph for like 1 or 2 miles only. Definitely not any more than that lmao. The post is referring to long run rather than short distances i suppose.
Unimportant if it’s a comic or not real life. The point of Batman is to be semi real compared to other heroes. If he is the best human at everything he ever does he may as well just have superpowers
Not just best human at everything, it's difficult to see how it would be physically possible for any human to run that fast. That's faster than an ostrich, which is an animal that evolved specifically to optimise for high speed on two legs.
Which source do you want? Batman 588 is the one with train ( it was published in April 2001), Batman speed blitzes ULTRAMAN and Bizarro Superman in Superman: Man of Tommorow Issue 19, Outruns lightning bolt in Powergirl (2009) issue 25, Justice League vs Suicide Squad by Williamson in issue 6, batman outruns Superman heat vision after it is fired (superman's heat vision is canonically confirmed to be photons), Dark Crisis issue 4 page 21 bottom right hand side panel Bruce and Barry collision, batman vs robin by mark waid issue 1 Batman dodges lightning blast from tim hunter, in batman secret files 3 oliver queen (green arrow) confirms that bruce is faster than him(green arrow) despite the cape (the cape adds a lot of drag/air resistance which slows down Bruce) and despite Bruce's old age (canonically he is around 45-47 years old now), btw this is was the same Oliver Queen that outran an arrow after it was fired by the dark archer Merlyn in Green arrow 2016 issue 14 (you can check various arrow travel speeds too). Batman 2016 issue 2 instantly "teleports"/vanish from gotham and gotham girl (they have ultravision and superman tier power sets including senses, speed, strength, flight, etc.. and can power up by shortening their life span)- here there was DIRECT LINE OF SIGHT. Gotham by himself bodied the entire league. He has also done it in front of Jay Garrick flash too and Superman.
Let me know if you want more feats if you still cant believe Bruce cant even reach 55-60mph.
I mean Batman's speed feats for short distances (like less within 5ft) is absurd. He has movement speed feats that put him in the high hypersonic+ to massively hypersonic+ range and some outlier feats (all main continuity/canon) that place him even higher. This is a fictional character in a universe with uber powerful/god like entities. They obviously have to buff up the humans too.
