Here's a quick post to share some kick-ass photos we got from a friend in Canada featuring a guy who is pretty serious about his cosplay, he is known as THE BRAMPTON BATMAN! He lives in Brampton, Ontario and he even has a super-awesome Custom Batmobile Replica Car, check it out!! (Click on it for a larger, more detailed, version)
BIFF!! One of my favorite things about doing the BAT-BLOG is getting the chance to meet Batman Fans from all over the world. Here's a great example! Check out our friend, Alex O'Connell! Alex is from Australia and in that country they have a HUGE Comic Convention called SUPANOVA! Recently, Alex played a big part in a Special '66 Batman Cosplay Group and, as you can tell from the photos, he cosplayed as the JOKER! Yes, Cesar Romero Style!! Check it out!
His costume and make-up are dead-on! Plus, if you look real close, I think he even has the painted-over mustache, ha! This must have been a really fun time, the costumes look so great! Thank you Alex for sharing your wonderful photos. Sorry it took me so long to get them posted.

Here's a nice random assortment of interesting "Batman" Memes I have come across lately. Some of them are quite hilarious but I really love the one with Michael Keaton and Ben Affleck. It's kinda fun to see them together!
Also, Please feel free to share these on your favorite social media. Yeah, we're talkin' places like TWITTER or FACEBOOK! You can also find the Bat-Blog at these sites and we want to invite everybody to join us, thanks!
A friend of the Bat-Blog, over at our FACEBOOK page, was kind enough to send us this picture showing a "Greek" ad for the new BATMAN V SUPERMAN movie in Greece. I love unusual "foreign language" stuff so this is kinda fun to see!
Some Batman Collectors might wanna add this item to their collections. Right now, at Wal-Mart, they have an exclusive edition of JUSTICE LEAGUE "Printed Fun" Pop Tarts. The graphics on the box are pretty cool! MMMmmm, Strawberry.
Warner Bros just released this recent movie trailer for the NEW LEGO BATMAN Movie. It looks like he is getting his own film (again). Look for it to hit screens in 2007.
As a huge fan of "Batman: The Animated Series" I have always loved Harley Quinn. This character was actually invented in the cartoon first and then later became a fixture of the "comic book world", She is also about to be depicted in a new live-action movie, Suicide Squad, which I think is going to introduce her into a larger mass audience who is sort of unfamiliar with her origins. So, this is the reason I chose to feature this "character history" video from Comic Explained. It gives a nice intro to her... Enjoy!
Here are some photos I came across the other night showing a few super-huge advertising billboards in Times Square (NYC, NY) that are promoting the new BATMAN V SUPERMAN: DAWN OF JUSTICE movie! Oh man, they look SO AWESOME!!
