Steve's Cool Artwork Inspired by Batman's Carmine Infantino & 1966 TV Series

A few days ago we did a post here at the Bat-Blog that featured some artwork by 2 Graphic Artists who were recently inspired by Carmine Infantino's iconic drawing of Batman and Robin. Well, a few days later we received this art from a friend named Steve, who likes to draw, & he too was inspired by this same artwork. But his twist on it was he drew the characters to look like the 1966 TV Show. Plus, he also did a piece that is an homage to the Golden Age Comic Book, DETECTIVE COMICS # 27. But the thing that's cool about it is that he also made it look like some characters in the 1966 BATMAN TV Show, Adam West's Batman & Cesar Romero's Joker. Both pictures are pretty cool, check them out!! Oh yeah, just to refresh some Reader's memories I posted the classic cover to Det. Comics # 27. ( Thanks Steve )

Arturo's Wonderful JOKER Costume & Make-Up Photos

One of the greatest things I love about doing the Bat-Blog is getting to meet Batman Fans from all over the world. Here are some photos sent-in by a friend named Arturo. He lives in Mexico & wanted us to see his JOKER costume he made for a party. It looks like everybody had a fun time! The costume is very well done & the funny thing is that he had a mustache ( which he didn't shave off ) & he covered it with white make-up in honor of Cesar Romero, the Actor who played the Joker in TV's 1966 BATMAN! Now, how cool is that?! Whoops, I guess I should explain that, back in the 1960's, Romero refused to shave his trademark mustache & left it on to become the Joker. They just covered it with white make-up & it's always been sort of an unusual piece of Bat-History. Thank you for sending the wonderful photos Arturo!

THE JOKER - Bat-Blog's Wacky Wallpaper Wednesday!

Have you ever danced with the devil in the pale moonlight? I always ask that of all my prey, I just like the sound of it. This week's "Batman Wallpaper Backgrounds" feature 2 different versions of The JOKER: Cesar Romero ( From the 1966 Batman TV Show & Movie ) and Jack Nicholson from the 1989 Tim Burton Film. In their own special ways both of these Actors did a very fine job... "Delicious!"

Batman's THE JOKER Desktop Wallpaper Backgrounds!

OK, I'm sort of doing this post as a special request. Recently I started to use a new "1440 x 900 Resolution Size" for Batman Wallpapers & a Bat-Blog Fan named Richard requested a few in this size of the JOKER. He kind of left it up to me to pick the images so I went with "something old, something new". That way, more people are happy, ha! First is the "old". This is a delicious photo of Cesar Romero as The JOKER from the 1966 BATMAN TV Show. He looks very satisfied with some evil thing he did, ha! Now, the next 2 backgrounds are the same image of a cool JOKER TOY but I thought that making a black & white version would be interesting. What do you think?

BATMAN TATTOO ART - Amazing Tribute To 1966 Batman TV Show

Wow! Check out this amazing "1966 Batman TV Show Tribute" Tattoo!! This was submitted by our friend Sarah who lives in Austria. This tattoo took over a year to create with 8 different trips to the Tattoo Shop. Now, that's dedication right there, ha! But it was worth it because it's a beautiful piece of ART. The details are insane! It features Batman ( Adam West ), Robin The Boy Wonder ( Burt Ward ), The Joker ( Cesar Romero ), the 1966 BATMAN TV Show Logo, & even the famous Red Bat-Phone! I think the artist did a great job on the rendering of the character's faces because they look EXACTLY like the original actors! Plus, the coloring & over-all composition is very excellent ( Be sure to click on the above photo for a larger, more detailed, pic ). I wanna thank Sarah for sharing her personal story & photo...great stuff! I also want to invite any old or new Bat-Blog Fans who get some ink done to send us some pictures, Thanks.
