Batman. What do we know about him?

1- He’s really Bruce Wayne
2- His parents were murdered
3- His sidekick is Robin
4- He never, ever, uses a gun

So what better toy than a Batman gun?

1- I have to admit, this first one is cool in a 60’s Japanese tin toy way. You know what I mean.

2- Sort of like a Bat-Luger. Simply not a cool looking gun. They probably had a bunch laying around in a warehouse and stuck it on a Batman card.

3- Again, nothing Batman-like at all. Not even that bat, which would look more at home in a 1940’s Dracula flick.

4- So stupid I love it. I want this one.

5- Epic fail. Epic Bat-fail.

I won’t have much to add to this. It is the story of a young boy battling leukemia, and the Make A Wish Foundation, who made his incredible dream come true. It is also the story of the generosity of heart of thousands of people who came together to make this boy’s day special, and of a city that did the right thing.

If this does not make you smile, and bring a tear to your eye, your heart is stone.

It’s official. Adam West, you are now my second favorite Batman.
