Looks silly and Mad Maxish compared to the original.

The Ford Lincoln & Concept marked 1966. To be honest, I didn't know about the earlier ones. I'm never was particularly a Bat Man fan. The Boy Wonder kind of made me question the Dynamic Duo......Lol.

Jack, years ago there was a radio personality here in LA on KLOS. He went by the moniker 'The Greaseman'. He did some hilarious skits on Batman & Robin and the 'very special' relationship they shared. I can't say any of it here. Made me laugh till I cried.

LOL. I've heard some hilarious stuff too. Robin is a name that crosses gender boundaries isn't it

According to the Greaseman, Robin crossed quite a few things.

If the authenticity of model cars can be relied upon, the original Batmobile is a late 1930s affair sporting a large batwing mounted fore and aft along the cars roof with a Batmask attached to the grill. Painted black of course. I had this model when I collected 1/64.

The Tim Burton Batmobile, the Tumbler, and the Adam West screen cars are the best.
And the Batman v Superman isn't bad. But I hate the Batman Forever (even though Val Kilmer did a great job and I like Jim Carrey and Tommy Lee Jones as Ridfler and Two Face) and Batman &Robin ones. Yet they look most like the postwar batmobiles with those dumbass high fins that are so flimsy they looked like they would snap off on screen a couple of times.
The two prewar convertibles were sharp though.
What the poster doesn't have is the latest WB animation batmobiles from the last decade. They have done some pretty cool animated movies based on the DC comics like Batman Doom and Gotham by Gaslight.
