It was in 1939, National Comics’ success with the seminal superhero Superman in Action Comics prompted editors to scramble for similar heroes. In response, Bob Kane conceived “the Bat-Man”. Milton “Bill” Finger recalled that Bob Kane:
…had an idea for a character called ‘Batman’, and he’d like me to see the drawings. I went over to Kane’s, and he had drawn a character who looked very much like Superman with kind of … reddish tights, I believe, with boots … no gloves, no gauntlets … with a small domino mask, swinging on a rope. He had two stiff wings that were sticking out, looking like bat wings. And under it was a big sign … BATMAN
This year we commemorate the 75th anniversary of the Batman character and a new headshot of Ben Affleck as Batman was most appropriate and it has appeared from “Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice”.
Tight shot doesn’t reveal anything of the body suit but Affleck himself in the cowl.
