The Detective Skill: Batman’s Real Superpower

This week on Gotham & Beyond, we focus on one of the most overlooked but defining abilities in DC Heroes 3rd Edition: the Detective skill. Found on page 76, Detective is more than a single roll.. it’s five subskills: Clue Analysis, Counterfeit Recognition, Identification Systems, Law, and Police Procedure. Together, they capture what makes Batman dangerous without ever throwing a punch. We’ll break down the mechanics, walk through examples, and talk about how this skill brings Gotham to life in a way no brawl ever could.
