The batsignal has often been described as a way to instill fear in the criminals, not as the most effective way to summon Batman per se. Certainly Batman doesn’t just watch fhe sky all night long to wait for the batsignal to come up, he has ways to get notified without seeing it.
Batman actually maintains a remote link to the light itself. As soon as the switch is flipped, he gets notified.
Cmon, his lair is a CAVE. how the fuck is he gonna see the signal anyway?? Does he maintain 24/7 surveillance of the entire sky?
He is Batman…
