1st Batman by Bob Kane

---

After DC Comics huge success with Superman editors were looking for another super hero to cash in on. Young creators Bob Kane and Bill Finger came up with the Batman. The creators were inspired Douglas Fairbanks' portrayal of Zorro, Lee Falk's comic strip The Phantom, Leonardo DaVinci's ornithopter (glider) blue prints which had large bat-like wings, the film the Bat Whispers and the mystery novel The Circular Staircase. In May of 1939 DC hit pay-dirt again with one of the most memorable and Iconic fictional characters in history, Batman! Batman's secret identity is Bruce Wayne, a wealthy industrialist, playboy, and philanthropist. Witnessing the murder of his parents as a child leads him to train himself to physical and intellectual perfection and don a bat-themed costume in order to fight crime. Detective Comics #27 is one of the most desirable and valuable comic books to own.
