Cool Vintage-Style BATMAN 3D T-Shirt on Sale at JC Penney

This is just a post to share some news I heard last night. The rumor goes that J.C. Penney stores have an extremely cool Batman T-Shirt that borrows graphics from the Vintage 1953 BATMAN 3-D Comic Book. I think it's only sold there as I have not seen it anywhere else. Plus, right now it's on clearance & you can get it for $9.99. I totally love the Retro-style graphics on this, it's great! Be sure to look at the actual comic book cover for reference, nice!

Vintage 1950's BATMAN Comic Books From Argentina!

This group of photos is just a very nice assortment of some foreign BATMAN ( El Hombre Murcielago ) comic books you could have found in Argentina, in the 1950's. Oh man, I'm totally lovin' the vintage-style artwork here. I also like that they are in a strange "landscape" format...beautiful!

VIDEO REVIEW - The 1950's BATMAN BATMOBILE CAR Model Kit

Here's an interesting video I came across recently. It features Chris Gierke from the MONSTER MODEL REVIEW website giving a review on the BATMAN 1950's BATMOBILE Car 1:24 Scale Die-Cast Model Kit by Johnny Lighting, which that company made in 2002. I remember when this product originally came out & it was actually kind of hard to find at the retail level. This style of the Batmobile has always been a favorite of mine & I wanted to get this kit, but never did. So now it's on my future "want list" & someday I'll get around to buying one. In the mean time i can just drool over this video.

Vintage 1950's BATMAN Comic Book Cover # 115

Here's a really cool vintage comic book cover to Batman #115. This issue was released in 1958, Batman's wacky 50's period. It appears he has been transported to a land of giants, ha ha! I love the old advertisement on the back. Be sure to click on the small graphic up above for a larger, more readable, version.

COVER : 1950's Batman 3-D Comic Book with Glasses

Here's an incredible photo sent to the BAT-BLOG by a loyal reader who said he just recently found the original 3-D glasses for this 1953 Batman 3-D comic book he has had for almost a year! He said since getting the book without the glasses that he has been obsessed! His e-mail was pretty cool because he really seemed excited about this, which is awesome, & he wanted to share the news with Bat-Blog readers....Thanks Dave! We're really happy for you & this is really great news, thanks again for the photo. Also, thanks for thinking about this blog, that's cool! We love getting photos & e-mail from readers. Sharing info about Batman is what we're all about.

BATMAN JONES Classic 1950's Comic Book Cover!

In the 1950's DC Comics created a very short lived character named BATMAN JONES. I mean, very short, like only one issue, Batman #108. But the funny thing is that this guy has recently become sort of a cult figure among Batman Fans. I think it has to do with his cool customized bicycle! The basic story is this newspaper delivery boy was so engrossed with Batman, from reading alot of news stories of his adventures, that he became sort of a Junior Crimefighter & created the Bat-Bike & Batman Costume. Here at the BAT-BLOG we love this guy!
