When you ask a child which superhero they would most like to be you can guarantee that Batman would be a popular answer. The chant of 'Dinner, dinner, dinner, dinner-BATMAN!' is synonymous with children's playgrounds everywhere. Most children (and a great deal of adults as well!) would get a real kick out of dressing up in Batman costumes. You can rest assured that anyone turning up at fancy-dress parties wearing Batman costumes would be hard pushed to find many people that asked who they were supposed to be.
Batman was originally called The Bat Man. He started in 1939 and through continual input and changes to his appearances in media, has established himself as one of the most easily recognised super heroes.
The cusccess he has generated covers films and television where he appeared as a Adam West, a wealthy industrialist. His time span covers almost 6 decades.
Batman costumes have evloved over the years and now you can get the barrel of 6 muscles front pad. As fabrics and materials have improved they have allowed different aspcets of the character to be emphasized.
Although our hero is not blessed with any strange or mystical powers like most of his counter- parts his life is still very much full of action and adventure. Like most superheroes Batman has a rather drab alter-ego (in this case it is Bruce Wayne) and a trusty side-kick known simply as Robin.
It is certainly an achievement that Batman has gained cult followoing as have his adversaries the joker and the riddler. Because of his longevity, grandfathers,fathers and sons have, at some time regarded him as their hero.
Over the years the Batman franchise has grown and grown. The range of toys, comics, sweets, Batman costumes and posters is a formidable one. Not to forget the seemingly endless movies, the most recent of these being 'The Dark Knight' with Christian Bale playing Batman for a second time.
And so if you are considering what to wear for a fancy- dress party then Batman costumes make a great choice. Donning an eye mask, cloak and tights for an evening to go out dressed as 'The Caped Crusader' is bound to be great fun! Plus your Batman costumes will be instantly recognisable. Perhaps you have a friend or partner who would consider accompanying you in costume as Robin.
