A day after discovering the Slovak Batman, I stumbled upon the Brazilian Caped Crusader. Apparently dressing up like the Dark Knight and fighting crime is a big thing.

The difference here is that André Luiz Pinheiro isn’t just some vigilante nut. He’s a nut who was hired — yes, hired — by officials in Taubaté, Brazil to help “combat crimes such as murder and drug trafficking.” Yeah, things have gotten that bad in Brazil.

It kinda makes sense since Pinheiro, 50, is a retired soldier who dresses as the Caped Crusader for children’s birthdays. Kinda. I just hope he has more than balloon animals to defend himself.

How do you say “Holy bad idea, Batman” in Portugese?

Batman is real (real crazy?) and he lives in Slovakia.

Zoltan Kohari, a 26-year-old man who lives in an abandoned building without water, heat or electricity, wants to help police fight crime in some place called Dunajská Streda. He also wants to look creepy and Eastern European while doing it. (Neither of which, I think, he can help.)

Zoltan (in my opinion a pretty good superhero name in itself) has not gotten around to battling any baddies just yet, but he is said to “believe in justice.” Good for him! For now, the Slovak Batman helps his fellow residents however he can. (Probably by not killing them in their sleep.) In return, they give him food.
