NJ SUPER MEGA SHOW & COMIC FEST - Batman Batmobile and Bat-Vehicle Coverage!

Recently, some Loyal Bat-Blog Readers sent us some amazing photos from the SUPER-MEGA SHOW & COMIC FEST that happened in New Jersey on June 9th & 10th. Here are some pics from our Good Pal & Ace Bat-Reporter BatDave and we'll be sharing even more later. These sort of focus on the Batman Bat-Vehicles that were there and they had an amazing assortment! 

OK, Outside ( right near the front door! ), they had a beautiful pair of 1966 BATMAN TV Show Replicas: The '66 Batmobile and Bat-Cycle!! Also appearing at the show was Captain Gene Nock who brought his Original 1960's Batman Movie Batcopter, also known as the N3079G!! 

Oh yeah hold on, one last thing! The Actor Robert Vaughn, who was a Special Guest at the show and you might remember him from THE MAN FROM UNCLE 60's TV Series, was kind enough to pop outside and get into our friend John's 1966 Batmobile for a photo op! As you can imagine everyone loves to sit inside that car and, sometimes, it's even kind of hard to get them to get out of it, ha ha!

Stewart's BATMAN BATMOBILE PHOTOS From the Recent SUPER MEGA SHOW & COMIC FEST

Check out these ultra-cool photos taken by our friend Stewart ( we call him "Stu" ) who, about two weeks ago, went to the SUPER-MEGA SHOW AND COMIC FEST in New Jersey. While he was there he got to see the Original 1989 Batman Movie Batmobile Car, and an awesome set of 1966 Batmobile & Bat-Cycle Replicas! Now, this was the show that had Adam West & Burt Ward as special guests but while Stu was taking pics of the vehicles outside he got this great shot of Lee Merriwether sitting in the '66 Batmobile. It looks like she is using a Sharpee marker to "autograph" the dashboard ( Yes, She was the original Catwoman in the 60's movie & still looks great! ). These are really fun pics Stu, thanks for sharing. Readers, we have more pics from this show coming up which we will show soon so please stay tuned to the BAT-BLOG!

FREE BATMAN WALLPAPERS - The 1966 TV Show Batmobile Car!

I'm posting this week's "Wacky Wallpaper Wednesday" on Thursday. Yeah, I'm an Idiot, ha! But wait a minute, these are both really pretty and you're gonna love 'em! These FREE BATMAN WALLPAPERS focus on the 1966 Batmobile, the most beautiful Car in the entire world, period. The other cool thing is that both pics were contributed by Bat-Blog Fans. The 1st one is from our Friend Bat-Dave who shot this at a recent NJ Comic-Con. The Car is owned by a guy named John & he had just built that "Batttering-Ram" device you see on the front grill. Next, is a photo sent to us by a friend in Dallas, Texas named Frank. This car was at some Shopping Mall and is pretty awesome! Frank probably drooled over this thing all day. So, I guess one is "outside" and the other is "inside". Either way this car is the greatest vehicle... ever!

Photos From The Recent 2012 ASBURY PARK COMIC CON

Here are some wonderful photos shot at the 2012 ASBURY PARK COMIC CON by our good buddy Batdave. He recently went to this event with his Girlfriend, Lisa & BFF, Dennis. Now, one thing was that was pretty cool was our good friend John of the GOTHAM CITY SUPERCAR CLUB was there & he showcased his 1966 Batmobile Replica Car for the event. It was set-up outside to sort of greet visitors to the show & the car looked great in this "vintage looking" environment. 

OK, you might notice in the 1st photo of the Car that it has a Custom "Battering-Ram" on the front. This is an homage to the episode where they originally had one of these for the car on the 1966 BATMAN TV series, very cool! The thing actually comes off the car. It's basically a Large Disc that is cushioned with leather padding on top of a pole. While the thing was removed Lisa held it upright & proclaimed that it is the "The Bat-Barstool", that's funny! Anyway, it's a cool addition to an already amazing replica. Everybody loved it!

Some of the other photos show 2 great Cosplay People who were dressed-up as the Scarecrow ( Movie Version ) and Harley Quinn ( from Batman: Arkham City ). As you can see their costumes were AMAZING! 

There is also a photo of our buddies Batdave & Dennis with those 2 guys from "THE COMIC BOOK MEN" TV Series. They were there doing promotion because that TV Show is filmed in the same state ( New Jersey ).

OK, so overall it looks like a great event that will hopefully keep growing. Whoops, did I mention this was the very 1st Asbury Park Comic Con? Sorry, yeah, this was the first show! I should also thank Batdave  for sharing his photos and a special "Thank You" also to Lisa, Dennis, & John for appearing in them.

BATMAN ALWAYS WINS!

This post is a quick shout-out to our good buddy Louie who recently entered his 1966 Batmobile Replica Car and won the "BEST OF SHOW" Award at the Cranford, NJ Street Fair Car Show. Louie is the guy on the right, holding the Trophy. Congrats Dude!!

Vintage BATMAN 1966 BATMOBILE REPLICA CAR Story from 1989 Belgium Newspaper

WOW! Now here's an extremely cool piece of Bat-History! A Loyal Bat-Blog Fan in Belgium, named Cliff, sent us this scan of a Vintage Newspaper Clipping he has kept forever! Cliff explained,

"I thought you might be interested in a 1989 newspaper article which I have kept since then in my good old and battered Batman Official Movie book. According to the article, the stunning 1966 Batmobile Replica Car is the work of the (then) 27 year old Mark Perkins from Winkfield Row, UK. After having asked permission from Warner Brothers, Pekins ordered the 1973 Lincoln from the United States. Then, when it was shipped to him by… well, ship, he transformed the Lincoln into the Batmobile in seven months. The article ends by stating that the Batmobile Replica will be shown in front of London’s Warner West End Theater when the movie opens next Friday. I can’t help but wonder what has become of UK Batfan Mark Perkins and his Batmobile… I wonder if he ended up making replicas of the Furst Batmobile and the Tumbler :)"

That's a good question Cliff. Does the car still exist? If so, then where is it now? Thank you for sharing this great Batman-related Newspaper Clipping. It's so cool seeing older stuff like that. It's even cooler that it's "foreign". If any other BAT-BLOG.COM Readers out there have some interesting stuff like this then please don't hesitate to share with all of us, thanks!

NJ COMIC EXPO - BATVENTION PHOTOS - 1966 Batman TV Show and Movie Reunion

A few days ago the Bat-Blog.Com told you about the NJ COMIC EXPO "2011 Batvention Event" in Teaneck, NJ that happened last weekend. Well, Ace Bat-Repoter BatDave was there & got some amazing photos to share! The event was a Celebration of the 1966 BATMAN TV Show! Well, I should also say "the BATMAN Movie" too because the Guest of Honor was none other than CATWOMAN herself, Lee Merriwether!



Like we reported, many other Actresses from the 60's TV Show were there. They appear in the photos up above & it looks like they all had a great time. Batdave's friends, The Gotham City Supercars Club, were there with their incredible Batmobile Replica Cars. A guy named Batrodz even showed up with a wonderful 1966 Batcycle Replica Motorcycle ( Check out his Custom Batman Helmet! ). Captain Gene Nock was there with his Original 1966 Batcopter. That was very special because Lee Merriwether and that Original Bat-Vehicle both appeared in the 1960's BATMAN Film.



There were also a ton of wonderful Cosplay People all showing off their fun costumes. Whew! It looks like it was a totally great event, I wish I could have been there! Oh yeah, a special "Thank You" goes out to BatDave for getting all these awesome pics together. If anyone else went to this event and wants to share some pics then please let us know.
