We totally love it when Bat-Blog Fans share their personal photos that show how they completely love the Batman character. To me, that's what this site is all about! So, here we go! The 1st two pics are from our friend Christopher's Wedding. Yes, a Wedding Cake with Batman & Batgirl Toy Figures as the toppers... How cool is that?! This cake is beautiful.
Then, here's a wonderful photo taken by our friend Autumn right after finishing her Bat-Cake. This was a Birthday Cake for an extremely lucky person. Plus, I think she did an amazing job on it, the logo looks awesome! ( Thanks to everyone who shared pics )
OK, Every week we post a few FREE Brand-New BATMAN WALLPAPERS here at the Bat-Blog, it's called "Wacky Wallpaper Wednesday"! This week I was really struggling with what to post. Then, out of the corner of my eye, I saw how these 2 random backgrounds totally mirrored each other. OK, I know it's dumb, ha ha! but look at the size & angle of the Bat-Symbol in each of these pictures... they're almost the same! Now, the 1st one is a photo sent in by a Batman Fan who, one day, cooked a Bat-Biscuit! Hey, you gotta admit it looks pretty neat & is very creative. He did a great job on it! Now, the next wallpaper background is a CGI-rendered image of a young Bruce Wayne in the alleyway with his murdered parents. The looming shadow of the BAT symbolizes his future. Anyways, we hope you enjoy these. Please be sure to come back next week and we promise we won't be so weird, ha!
Ladies and Gentlemen, for your viewing pleasure, here is THE BAT-MIRROR designed by Stanislav Katz in 2008. This HUGE Batman-Inspired Wall Mirror is carefully hand-molded from plaster & done in a neo-rococo style. It comes in Black, White, Gold, or any Custom Color. I could see this thing in a New York Loft or Wayne Manor's Bat-Cave. It's... so... beautiful!
Here at the Bat-Blog we love getting photos from Bat-Fans so it was pretty cool when we got this pic from a Fan named Taylor. Here she is showing off her special Batman Bat-Symbol Logo Tattoo & it's AWESOME! Thanks for sharing pic with us Taylor, your Bat-Tat was very well-done, the lines are sharp & clean, looks great! Hey, if any other Bat-Blog Readers get some ink done then please be sure to send us some pics too!
The Bat-Blog is all about being a Batman Fan & we also love when people are inspired by the character. Here are some wonderful examples of creativity: The 1st pic is a crazy sculpture of the Caped Crusader. He was made with special cake icing called "Fondant", probably for a very special Birthday Cake. The next example is pretty wacky! ( Thanks Jackie ) Somebody painted their Apartment's Garage Door with the Bat-Symbol Logo... cool! The 3rd pic is a photo sent in by a Bat-Blog Reader who, I guess, got bored in class, ha! He drew the Dark Knight on his hand & it looks pretty good. The last pic is a BATMAN Art Masterpiece, made from SNOW! So, are YOU inspired by any of these pics? Have YOU done anything creative lately? If so, then please shoot us a photo. Thanks!
OK, I'm officially jealous, very JEALOUS! This photo comes from a friend on Facebook who recently got this extremely cool Custom Art BATMAN Coffee Table! His name is John & he just received this Masterpiece of Art from a friend named Dave. John says that Dave made this out of totally recycled parts, basically, materials he found. It's an oval-shaped table with a BATMAN LOGO Bat-Symbol shape carved out of the top's center. It looks like John has installed a focused spotlight up above that casts a shadow on the floor of a BAT under the piece of furniture. Yes, it's also a bat-signal!!! ( Thanks John for sharing this groovy pic, this is a totally GREAT piece. Also, please share with Dave that we think he's a True Artist ).
While looking for something unique to report on I found these extremely cool Batman Jewelry items over at the Superhero Stuff website. They have Batman Necklaces, Rings, Bracelets, Belt Buckles, etc...Everything you need, to "Bling Bling", ha ha! For more information, just click the button down below:
Here's some really cool BATMAN SUPERHERO PAJAMAS for Little Boys we saw the other night over at the "Crazy For Bargains" website. The graphics range from "Lego Batman" to the new "Batman: The Brave and The Bold" cartoon. They even have one pair that looks like it's from "The Dark Knight" movie &, of course, they have the Classic Superheroes Costume-Style with Cape. For more information on where to buy them just click on the link button down below.
Alright! Late last night I got a new photo of our little buddy Desmond in my email box. That always makes me happy because he's such a cool kid! He's shown here in some new BATMAN Pajamas he got last Christmas. They have a vintage style to them ( think of the ones your Grandpa wore, ha ) & they're completely covered with Batman Bat-Symbol Logos!! Oh man, I'm totally jealous! Hey Desmond, I don't have any cool sleepwear like this! I might have to come over to your house & steal these, ha! I wanna thank his parents for sending the sweet picture. It's nice to see the little guy again & he's still totally adorable. In fact, maybe even a little bit more!
OK, ya gotta love it when people customize their car into a Batmobile...it's wacky! Here are some fun photos from a guy I met online named John. He did some custom work on a 1997 Cougar & made it into the Ultimate Bat-Car! As you can see from the very 1st photo chicks totally dig the ride. Yes, there is a car in that photo (look to the right). Now in the next pic you can see the custom upholstery with the Bat-Logo on the seats. I like that everything inside is black & grey. Plus,I totally love that futuristic steering wheel, very cool! The next 2 shots show the outside of the car. You can really see the custom paint job with the Bat-Symbol on the sides & the hood. I guess it's important to say that they were shot while on a road trip up & down Route 66. Some pics were shot at the Texas border & the other one was in the mountains. I wanna thank john for allowing us to show off his cool Bat-Car & also invite all other Bat-Blog Readers who have made some Custom Batman stuff to send your pics in too.
The Bat-Blog is very proud to announce a brand-new member of the Hughes Family, Baby Batgirl! Her name is Brooke & she was born on January 8th, 2010. This precious photo was sent in because it shows off her homemade "Little Batgirl Baby Blanket" with the special pink bat-logo. It's so cute & she's just complete adorable!! Brooke is a wonderful gift. I want to send my most sincere best wishes to the Hughes Family at this time, Congratulations!!
OK, this video is not a complete "How To" tutorial but you get the basic idea. It shows you how to use Adobe Illustrator to make a BATMAN Bat-Symbol Chest Logo ( Classic "Yellow Oval" version ). It's kinda cool!
I just met this guy on the internet & how did I know he was a serious Batman Fan? Well, because he has this HUGE Batman Tattoo Art of a Bat-Symbol Logo on his chest! Now, that's what I call dedicated. He recently got it & it's pretty cool. It's done "life-size" so, I guess, when he removes his shirt it looks like he is wearing a Batman Costume underneath, that's awesome! Actually, his name is Denis & he was kind enough to allow us to post his photo. So, many many thanks to Denis for the great picture. Dude, the Bat-Tat looks really great, good job on that! We publish Batman-related Tattoos all the time so if any new Bat-Blog Readers get one then please send us a pic! ( Actually, if you have ANY Batman-related material please send that too: Brand-New Merchandise, Vintage Toy Collections, Birthday Cakes, etc...)
Awhile back we did a story here at the Bat-Blog about some New DC Comics BATMAN Baby / Toddler Clothes they had at Target. It was a cute little Baby-Sized T-Shirt with the Batman Logo on it. Well, yesterday I received an e-mail from a girl named Tracy who said she didn't have a Target in her area & she asked if I knew of any other sources. Plus, she also asked if I knew about anything that was even smaller, like for a tiny baby. So after a little research, this is what I found. Here are 3 different Batman-Style Onesies each with their own style. The 1st one is black with the yellow oval-shaped Bat-Symbol. The 2nd one is light-gray with a Batman Comic Book logo that says, "BATMAN IN TRAINING". Now both of these would be appropriate for a small boy or girl but the next one, the 3rd pic, is really for a girl because it's the "Batgirl Outfit". It's also light-gray & has a bright yellow bat-symbol. Now, I already sent this information to Tracy ( she didn't specify if it was a boy or girl & later I found out it was a girl so that's cool because they have the "Batgirl Costume" ). Then I got to thinking that maybe there are some other readers out there with a similar question but didn't ask so...here ya go! You can find these "Batman Baby Onesies" by clicking the link button down below!
WOW, Since we have not posted a Batman Tattoo Photo in awhile I thought it would be a good idea to do one today! This photo was sent to us by a new friend we met at MySpace. His page is called "WicketToys" & he is totally into photography. He's also a Major Toy Collector. His main focus seems to be the line of Hot Toys Figures. But, wait a minute, back to the Bat-Tattoo, haha! As you can see by the photo, it's a small "Bat-Symbol Logo" on the back of his neck. I like the clean design, very simple. I wanna thank him for allowing us to publish his pic & if you're curious about his work then please be sure to visit his Flickr page where you can see some of his Collectible Toy Photography. It's located right HERE!
I got an e-mail this morning from a Bat-Blog Fan named JR, who just got this cool Batman Tattoo! It's the classic "Yellow Oval" Bat-Symbol Logo & it looks AWESOME! The lines are very sharp & the coloring is great. Thanks for sending the cool pic JR, I appreciate that. Also, the MARIO tattoo looks pretty cool too! Readers, there is ALWAYS an open invitation to send any kind of cool Batman-related pics to the Bat-Blog...so please do!
A Bat-Blog Fan named, literally, "Some Random Guy" sent us this photo of his 1995 Mitsubishi Diamante that he just started to customize. So far the car is black & gray with a cool Batman Bat-Symbol Logo painted on the hood. He said even though he is going to keep the design very simple, there are a few more things he is going to do & then he will send more pics of the finished product. That's cool. So far the car looks really great! I look forward to seeing it completed. Thanks for sending the photo, "Random Guy". Readers, if you have customized your vehicle into a Batman car then please send us some photos, thanks!
Here at the Bat-Blog we're HUGE Fans of anything related to New Orleans, it's a really GREAT city! Well, recently we came across this hilarious Parody Souvenir T-Shirt for NOLA called "DATMAN". It combines the Bat-Symbol Logo & the Fleur De Lis icon. It's sold by a well known company called Story Ville ( Thanks to Kandye for sending the info ). Here's a link if you want to check it out, just click HERE!
OK, you might remember some photos the other day of Ernest's Batman Toy Collection. He has some really great stuff but 1 item made me sort of curious & I asked him about those. They were these "Custom Bat-Signal Light Covers". I wondered what they actually look like ON his truck & he was generous enough to take the time to shoot these very cool pics! Thanks Ernest. These Batman Light Covers are a very clever idea! I mean, some Car Accessory Company should totally make these! They look pretty cool during the day but when they are lit-up at night they're really great! The bat-shapes hold-up very well & I have to wonder if they project a bat-signal on to another surface, that's funny! I know the "night time" photo must have been hard to get but it turned out great, thanks! Readers, he even shot some pics of the trucks interior where he has Batman Floor Mats, Batman Steering Wheel Cover, & a Bat-Symbol Keychain hanging from his rear-view mirror. These are all items you can find at your local Auto Parts Stores ( I have some floor mats that are sort of like these, just a little different. I like the ones that Ernest has a lot better! ).
Here's a post done for the Bat-Blog Readers out there who make tons of money! We reported awhile back how Bloomingdale's Department Stores are helping DC Comics celebrate their 75th Anniversary by having a few special Superhero T-Shirts. Well, they have expanded that line of products with a few other articles of clothing. Here are some Batman Socks, Bat-Symbol Necktie, & even a Cashmere Scarf with a cool graphic of our favorite Caped Crusader! Now, why did I mention the "lots of money" part? Well, the socks are $30.00, the Tie is $125.00, & the Scarf is $225.00 -- OUCH! But, I gotta admit, that Bat-Scarf is pretty cool!
