Happy 75th anniversary to the best comic book hero of all time. I've had many happy moments thanks to the creation of this character. The Batman TV show from the 1960s, Batman 1989, the excellent Batman: The Animated Series, Batman of the Future, Justice League, the Christopher Nolan Dark Knight trilogy...and not forgetting the comics! Let's celebrate 'em all!

You'll miss them when people are back to just complaining about and hating things.

I have been a Batman fan for 46 years now and he has been my favorite for 40-something of those years. Must have inherited my love for the character from my father, who has been a Bats fan for at least 66 years himself.

When I was very little, my father would recap old comic book stories (Batman and Robin, Superman, Plastic Man, the Blackhawks, Captain Marvel, etc.) he remembered from his childhood. One of the great things as I started building up own collection years later was finding some of those old stories in reprints and how they correlated perfectly with my father's memories of them!

That's a truly wonderful thing. My grandpa and dad got me interested in comics as well. Originally Posted by The Darknight Detective

My mother was more into pulp mysteries herself and got me into those when I was a bit older though she did have a few Little Lulu and Archie comics around as well. One of my uncles, who I never had the pleasure of meeting as he died before I was born, kept a small collection of comics at my grandparent's house and that's where I spent one rainy afternoon in their attic discovering Batman and Spiderman among other superheroes.

I was in preschool and my ma and I were grocery shopping after school, I distinctly remember she was in a hurry to get it done and get home before 6pm as "there's this old showing coming back on TV tonight that I think you'll really like". Ha ha. Yeah.
