Ask the average comics fan who created Batman and many will still say Bob Kane. That’s because Bob Kane’s name was the only credited name from Batman’s debut in 1939 until just a few years ago when DC Comics began co-crediting writer Bill Finger. This episode takes a look at how Bob Kane secured one of the best contracts in the Golden Age of comics, what his peers thought of his work, and how he outright lied to claim all the Batman fame for himself over the years.
