Can you believe it!? He doesn't look a day over 30! as amazing as it is to think, the caped crusader himself celebrates his 75 year of existence this year and we just couldn't resist paying our own little tribute to this true super-superhero.

Now a big as a lot of the iconic Superhero characters are, surely there are none as big as Batman! It wouldn’t be too forward to say that Batman’s probably DC’s most famous and most recognizable character versus the likes of Superman.

First swooshing his cape and flying into our lives in comic book Detective Comics #27, which hit the shelves back on March 30, 1939, it wasn't until later on that the first specific Batman published adventure of was published in the May 1939 issue in Detective Comics #27. Created and drawn by a 22-year-old Kane with his frequent collaborator, Bill Finger, who wrote the script which only spurred on the support for our hero.

With such a big buzz surrounding the Comic book scene over recent years helped thanks to huuuge blockbusting action films, video games, upcoming collaborations with Superman and Batman and of course some wicked new animation work like 'Beware the Batman' and 'Son of Batman', the world has really been gripped by their magical powers which without a doubt has inspired the future generation's love for these iconic characters.

To celebrate this triumph and momentous moment, we thought we would put together a little run down of some of his career highlights to show you just how far this character has come and all the amazing things he's been up to. Dive into the world of Batman with us folks!
