Pretty easy formula. Batman has successive generations of fandom. The 1966 show was big and people still have an idea of what it is. You can't say the same for much of anything that was on TV back then. There was also the movie serial from the 40's which sometimes plays on TCM channel, but I have no idea what the legacy of that thing really is, so I can't speak for it.

A big thing in Batman's favour is that he's got the best movies in the superhero genre. Batman has a great trilogy (in the realm of blockbuster movies, absolutely) and the 2 Burton movies are beloved online. Hell I worship the heck out of the Tim Burton Batman.

The best superhero cartoon ever? Check!

Several iconic renditions of the biggest villain in comics? Nicholson, Romero, Ledger, Hamill animated, Joaquin? CHECK!

The Arkham games? Home run!

He's easily the #1 gun at DC Comics for the last 20 odd years.
