Since 1939, the Batman mythology, with its overtones of dark menace and crusading justice, has shaped the American imagination. It has also spawned an enormous consumer industry, from gadgets to clothing and collectibles. Drawn from the author's private collection and from the archives of DC Comics, this gallery of color photos showcases the artwork of Andy Warhol and other notable illustrators and the rarest Batman memorabilia, including posters, figurines, toys, and merchandise tied into the comic books, 1960s TV series, blockbuster movies, and current animated television show. 9 x 12.
