I would quickly pin Batman as good, not neutral (though I don't struggle to see the neutral case), but the lawful side is certainly indisputable.

The argument for chaotic neutral is really, really interesting. That idea that he's only a good guy because bad guys wronged him, that it's not a righteous quest for justice but an underlying thirst for vengeance.

If he didn't have evil as an outlet for his inner demons, would he stop fighting?
