Men's Superhero Fancy Dress Costumes
Batman The Ultimate Superhero
Batman is the ultimate superhero from the comics, all the way into the realm of the modern movie era. He originated in D.C. Comics and was one of its most important comic heroes of all time. His character has been played by several different actors over the years in the movies, along with being directed by multiple directors also. It is argued that Batman maybe undefinable to make that perfect movie version of his tale. Something about Batman is very hard to pin down and capture cinematically, at least to the fans. His influence is amazingly broad and more than any other comic book superhero, he represents the human side of heroes from the comic book genre. He was more human than superhero in his purpose, in his friendships and his personal life. He also is defined by the batman costume which is one of the best men's superhero costumes of all time.
Batman had a purpose that was defined by the death of his parents early in life. He is more of a vigilante than a true superhero, being that his motivation for fighting crime is to seek vengeance against the killers of his parents. This becomes the hidden crutch that makes Batman more human that other superheroes. He also has no natural super powers, as Bruce Wayne he has the resources to invent devices that make him powerful but nothing more. He has not magic or supernatural endowments. He is a human, with weapons, tactics, high powered vehicles and a utility belt full of tricks.
Batman had only very secret friendships, but the closest ends up being with the boy wonder Robin. Batman has a some small personal world, but never a life that can be separated from his identity as the Dark Knight. He has love briefly, has family that he loses and even his own identity must be sacrificed, if he is to eventually achieve his primary goal. The goal of taking vengeance on his parents killer is always at the forefront of his life, even as he fights the world of crime by night. On some level, Batman is not so different than the criminals that he hunts and stalks by cover of darkness. He is a superhero, but internally more like a waiting vampire that only has yet to find its true prey. This is where all of us can relate to Batman a little, we all are a bit torn between what is right and what we desire to be. Justice and purpose are in conflict within Batman.
Another aspect all unto itself was the exterior that made the man into a superhero, the costume he wore. The Batman costume is unique among superhero costumes. It is one of the best designed mens superhero costumes and has no rivals. The batman costume is the standard by which almost all mens superhero costumes are put up against. Before Batman most superhero costumes were only a piece of wardrobe, mens superhero costumes generally had no function other than looks. But Batman had a costume with devices, tools, a utility belt and other secrets. It was body armor, allowed maneuverability and had a cape that was the key to low level flight ability. It also was a form of camouflage in darkness and was undeniably recognizable.

Mens Superhero Costumes Batman
The Origins of Batman
Batman is one of the most infamous superheroes of all time. His only competition in this regard is Superman, and it's a toss-up between the two of them as to which one is more instantly recognizable. As his name suggests, Batman's motif is that he dresses and behaves like a bat as he fights crime. Given that he has no superpowers, he utilizes his own superior intelligence and his vast array of gadgets that reside in the utility belt of his superhero costume to take care of business.
Batman was created by comic-book artist Bob Kane and writer Bill Finger in the late 1930s. The first comic book he appeared in was Detective Comics #27. He and his Batman Costume gained popularity quickly. Something about his Fancy dress caught fire with the public's imagination, and along with Superman he was one of the few superheroes to continue to be written about through the 1950s when interest in comic books was on the wane.
Batman's superhero costume consists of a black cape and a cowl with pointy ears, which is perhaps the most recognizable aspect of it. He has been depicted in many different ways over the years, but the cowl is the most consistent feature of the Batman Costume as a whole. His public persona, Bruce Wayne, is a billionaire playboy who is no stranger himself to Fancy dress, and he uses his vast monetary resources to fund his nighttime activities.
In 1940, Batman's partner-in-crime-fighting was introduced. Robin is a younger male who tags along with Batman and provides assistance. The Robin Costume is more colorful than Batman's, derived as it is from Robin's history as a circus performer. He is usually depicted as wearing a bright red vest with a yellow cape and green boots, the garishness of which serves as a distraction to the criminals he means to take out. There have been many incarnations of Robin over the years, but they all have a similar Robin Costume.Which makes them great for Mens Superhero Costumes when you want to go as a duo or a couple.
In the 1960s, the first Batman movie appeared. It was a slapstick action movie with a lot of corny humor and silly villains spouting goofy one-liners, a far cry from the character's dark beginnings. This spawned a TV show that was in a similar vein. The Batman and Robin cotumes remained the same, but the tone of the story was mostly silly and cartoonish. Eventually people tired of the gimmicks, and Batman became essentially a joke, until the 1980s when comic-artist Frank Miller reinvented the character with his two seminal series, Year One and The Dark Knight Returns. Year One presented a new origin story for the character of Batman, returning the character to its dark and nihilistic roots. Much like the original character, this dark version was a hit, and it was only a few years until a new movie was made.
The Tim Burton Batman film, released in 1989, was a dark vision that yet retained some of the campiness inherent to the character, but presented it in a serious manner. Unfortunately, after Tim Burton left, the next two films brought the character back to joke territory, even going so far as to add strange nipples to the Batman and Robin cotumes, until the character's recent reinvention by Christopher Nolan. Now Batman is back, and better than ever. Needless to say they are one of the most popular Mens Superhero Costumes on the market
