The Batmobile

[fajrdrako]

Yahoo!Picks today had a link to recommended websites, and one was to The History of the Batmobile.

I had thought I knew what the Batmobile looked like. Hah! I had no idea it had changed so frequently and so radically. And I've been reading Batman comics for, well, for a long time.

Thing is, though, at the best of times I'm pretty much blind to what all cars look like, and that includes colour and shape - I recognize my friends' cars only when I memorize the license plate. (Which I frequently do, but I don't tell them that.) There are only two exceptions: the Dodge Caravan, which I love, and recognize most years and models of, and my firend Donna's new royal blue Saturn.

So it's not suprising that I had only a general idea what the Batmoble looks like - in any era. After all, with Batman in the vehicle, one of the sexiest heroes in comics, why would I be looking at the car?

I love the episode of Drew Carey with the Batmobile.

I haven't seen it, but I'm sure I'd appreciate it if I did.
