DALLAS -- A 21-year-old college student has accepted a top award for an intriguing paper he penned about the striking similarities between President Donald Trump's rise to the White House and Batman.
Andrew Boge, who attends Hastings College in Nebraska, says he first started to think about a connection when he saw a 2015 YouTube clip of then-candidate Trump giving a family a ride in his helicopter.
"And the little boy asks, 'Are you Batman?' And he says, 'Yes, I'm Batman,"' says Boge.
He says professors encouraged him to expand on some initial thoughts and he came up with the research paper titled "Donald Trump is Batman: How Archetypal Appeals Assisted in Determining Our President."

When I was in college there was a non-stop running of all the old Batman serials shown in movie theaters. Somethin like 12 hours straight. I think it was in one of those that Batman said, "Robin, come here. I need you." Hmmm. We chuckled a bit.
