Batman: 80 Years of the Dark Knight 

Batman now has *80 YEARS OF PREP TIME*

Jim Gordon - you are a hero Batman: A hero can be anyone. Even a man doing something as simple and reassuring as putting a coat around a young boy's shoulders to let him know that the world hadn't ended.

"I am Vengeance." "I am the Night." "I AM BATMAN!"

1970s Neal Adam’s Batman is what really solidified the overall aesthetic look of Batman physically...

I remember staying up dumb late watching the animated series as a 5 year old

Still can't believe that my favourite comic book character is 80 years old and is still going strong. #longlivethebat

Me: DC, I ve never said thank you DC: and you ll never have to

My inspiration. The reason behind my never giving up. World's greatest detective. World's greatest motivator. You changed my life Batman. Thank You Bill Finger and Bob Kane.

Yayyy my favorite superhero can’t believe it 80 years.....I’M BATMAN

The change from 1967-1970 was amazing

"Why aren't you laughing?!" "Because I've heard it all before. And it wasn't funny the first time" Still one of the best interactions between Batman and the Joker. It says a lot about their contrasting psyche

-He's not invulnerable, yet the man of steel is afraid of him -He's not super fast, but criminals know that he's watching them and even like that, they won't see him coming -He doesn't have a power ring, yet his willpower is bigger than that of any green lantern -He doesn't have a lasso of truth, but he smells the truth if someone is hiding it and will simply break it out -He's not half machine, but will analyze every situation to rig it for his advantage He's batman, period.

I got a message from 1966 Robin, “ Holy 80 years of Batman!”.

Make another Arkham game, PLEASE!!! it has been 4 years already

Just watching Batman get progressively grumpier.

“A hero can be anyone, even a man that puts a coat into a boy’s shoulder making him knowing that the world still haven’t ended yet” -Bruce Wayne

*Because he's the hero Gotham deserves, but not the one it needs right now. So, we'll hunt him, because he can take it. Because he's not our hero. He's a silent guardian. A watchful protector. A Dark Knight.* -Commissioner James Gordon

I remember being a fan since I was 5. I can’t believe he’s 80 years old.

80 years of the best Superhero ever created! Thank you DC!

This guy deserves all the respect in the world. He's not just a character. He's us. We live him. #LongLiveTheBat. Edit: #RestoreTheSnyderVerse

Still had a good feeling that there was more to celebrate as The Dark Knight’s 80th Anniversary is a major milestone in the worlds of pop culture and comic books. Happy Anniversary Batman

I am reading “Dark Knights metal” right now and I am loving it so far

Others: What is there to afraid about him? DC: Because he is Batman The name enough to tell who he is

1:27 is when you see the biggest change that shapes Batman into being what we know him as today. Thank you Frank Miller.

My favorite character and world in all of fiction. Matt Reeves and Robert Pattinson have my full support on building upon this long legacy.

Long live the Batman. The best hero of all time.

Happy anniversary, Batman! Here's to countless more battles against the forces of evil, and other awesome action!

Why we love batman? Because he is Batman one and only legend

I remember when it was 75 years of Batman omg. I feel old(I’m 19)

Neal Adams is my favorite Batman artist, and Denny O’Neil is my favorite Batman writer. I love the Bronze Age stuff.

Looking forward to Batman's 100th when I'm nearly 50.

80 years and still by far the best superhero long may he reign.

It's not who I am underneath, but what I do that defines me 🖤🦇

Before 1944: Days that Batman smiles.

Should’ve did it like you did Superman it was truly amazing

Happy 80th Anniversary, Batman!!! ✨🎇🎆

You're not brave... Men are brave Best Batman line ever!

Batman is the true hero. #longlivethebat. He and his gadgets. He is so awesome from DC comics #27 till the present

Man, I love Batman so much! He is my #1 favorite superhero of all-time. 😊

I've been reading Batman comics since the late '70s. Happy Birthday Batman.

I am vengeance! I am the knight! I AM BATMAN!

80 years passed but Love these positive vibes BATMAN spread. You have a magic in your eyes. You are so creative The one I appreciate on this planet.

Happy 80 Batman!! One of the true classic heroes;) 🦇

I love how the music changes throughout the video as it starts off full of wonder and excitement but gets darker and more serious all throughout. Kinda reflects on Batman's character as a whole throughout the years.

Everybody talking bout Iron Man, here’s the real G.O.A.T. Edit: Yay 1K likes.

Long live the King, from 1939 to many more great years

80 years of vengeance. 80 years of the night. 80 years of Batman!

The greatest Hero DC has ever invented!

I don't know which one of my favorite Batman I mean all of them are cool

Oh the glorious Neal Adams run.. I miss the more down to earth bats

Batman, Spider-Man, and Captain America are my all time favorite superheroes

The Batman, most iconic hero of all time, thank you DC

Legendary superhero and my fav as well as inspiration ..long live batman

3:30 after 79 years he finally got married. #longlivethebat

Very amazing 80 years of Batman awesome one of the best characters of all time from DC comics

70s to 90s was Batman's best look for sure!

Wow, it has been 80 years hasn't it. I cant even remember a time when I was -66.

Long live Batman him and Spider-man are my favorite super heroes ever!!!!!!

-He may be Vengeance, But is a true champion of jutisce -He may be the night, But fight to bring a shining Day -He is the Dark Knight who fights to bring hope to the innocent´s hearts He is The Batman.

Thank you to the creative artists and storytellers for your contribution to this amazing character’s journey.

My favorite is the 70's... Alex Ross artwork... and Arkham Series version of Batman.

OMGGG YESSSSSSSS !!!!! EVERY BATMAN EVER BUT KEVIN CONROY IS THE BEST ICONIC VOICE FOR THE DARK KNIGHT AND BRUCE WAYNE and i say that because some people only have that bruce wayne voice or just batmans

“It’s not who I am underneath , but what I do that defines me”.

Man, remember when Batman was goofy, and smiled, and wore blue, because its shockingly around half the character's existence????????????

Wow, Batman is a best superhero of all time

Batman is not just a character it's an emotion .

The best Character of all time

Long live the legend

Happy anniversary Batman!! You're my hero. #Batman80

Greatest Superhero ever. I love you, Bruce!

Can I just say of how 1972 and 1973 still look amazing for even today, could definitely pass as a comic from this generation. Happy 80 years Batman.

80 years and still keeping himself in shape respect bruce

Man Batman had a blue suit a lot longer then I thought he did

Batman will always be the number one superhero forever ❤️❤️❤️

Legends never die...

Greatest superhero of all time and its not up for debate. 🐐

One of my favourite art work of Batman is Batman Damned. The art work is incredible.

You know, it’s the 60th Anniversary of Superman’s cousin Supergirl.

My favorite hero and the reason why I love comics/other superheroes. Thank you Bob Kane!

He is so cool that DC is named after his comic title. Detective Comics!!. Dark knight forever 🤩

awesome Timeline! Batman is the greatest. so many Great artists have contributed to his history

Jim lee and Greg Capullo were born to draw Batman !!!! Congrats to the bats 🦇🦇🦇🦇

Happy 80th Birthday Batman/ Bruce Wayne. #LongLiveTheBat

"it's not who I am underneath but what I do that defines me" - Batsy 🦇

I'm kinda pissed Superman has an Animated one for this while this doesn't. Like I know Superman is a Big Deal of DC but the Trinity is so that includes Batman Like c'mon.

Happy Anniversary to the greatest superhero of all time!

He is the reason for me to love comics

Thanks for the annotations alongside images; you've just given me eighty years of reading material to check out.

The True Alpha And Omega Of Superheroes. #Batman
