Origin of the Batcave

[@archiveanakin3161]

I just wanna say I've been watching this channel since 2014 (I was 11 now I'm 19) and you're the biggest reason to why I've become a such a huge comic book reader. I really appreciate the work you guys put into these videos and I wish you all more success :))).

Batman has eight batcaves... he even has a mini Batcave also I love how he collects souvenirs from every bad guy he takes down

[@godofzombi]

It would be cool if he had a toy dinosaur and a normal penny and joker card at each location. You know- to make it feel a bit more like home.

[@TheSkullDragger]

@@godofzombi that would be funny

[@davidm4566]

How did he get the giant penny down there?! I mean he would have to get a whole crew down there and somehow keep it secret.

[@kratoscraken5614]

This was sooooo cool and it is said Batman has actually more the 1 Batcave and not to mention he has multiple bases all around Gotham 👌

[@shaundocmcgowan8836]

I love what Nolan did by stating it’s origin, where it was used in the 1800’s to transport fugitive slaves as a part of the Underground Railroad . Explained to Bruce by Alfred.

Way late to the party but...Yeah man...I love that as well. Great comment.

My favorite version of the Batcave would be from the 60’s / Adam West version because of the cool automatic costume change pole Bruce and Dick slides down as their entrance. In fact, I’m surprised it isn’t mentioned in this vid.

[@jimr9499]

I always wondered how they changed...was there a platform halfway down where they stopped and put on their costumes real quick then continued sliding down ...? Lmao

[@UltimateSpider1385]

The two best things I love about the Bat Cave are the Giant Penny and The Robot T-Rex 🦖.

[@juanhartley4897]

I love the sense of wonder we get. The trophies are always just there. Remnants of his golden age adventures. Best seen through the perspective of a young new recruit Robin.

[@duganchase8577]

Wow did you really come up with tgat opinion all on your own ive never heard anyone say that before oh thank you so much for sharing😑

[@doncartier6796]

I know it wasn't mention nor do I think anyone would count this version of The Cave, but I really liked the satellite Bat Cave in the video game, Batman Arkham Asylum. I thought it was cool how it's a suspended version of the original. Kinda adding to the persona of a bat. Not to mention, it came with the crime lab, a batwing, and it was so off in the cut that only Batman himself could've easily accessed it, given how many times his cave has been inflitrated. Still nothing beats the original though! Love your channel, Arris!!!

[@richardedgell]

Bats?

[@kevbarron6501]

For anyone who's seen The Batman recently and is confused as to where the batcave is in it. Bruce stays at Wayne tower near the centre if Gotham city. There used to be a private rail road from Wayne manor to Wayne tower. It was private and used by Wayne enterprises staff. So basically the basement of Wayne tower is where Wayne station is. Only known by Alfred and Bruce.

[@mostafafarweez3161]

My favorite is from 1989 movie. There is something special about the1st time you see something and sticks with you.

Adam West Batcave Is Still One Of The Best

[@Artisan1979]

I like the post Nomansland Batcave. The fact that the floor has fallen out and now Batman has had to rebuild it around that endless chasm with different levels.

[@bradmcalister2473]

That was fun! I always wondered how he got the Batcave built, like logistically speaking. How did he justify the work down there?? Was the electrician just like "Oh yeah, perfectly normal to be running this much power to the cave beneath the house." Also, was this a union job? If not we need to talk to the site manager..

[@sarahsims6164]

Your comment made me think of that cutaway gag from Family Guy: "They made a Lazy Susan for your nuclear-powered car."

[@ot4kon]

[@archangel5627]

It’s simple really. Bruce Wayne did the same exact thing people like H.H. Holmes. He had contractors and construction workers work on the Bat Cave in sections. When one section was complete he would then get rid of the previous group of workers and then hire new ones. He would continue doing this until it’s completion.

[@blickyru]

Do a video over DC universe locations. Gotham, Bludhaven, Metropolis, Central City, etc

[@roccoborghetti4693]

I honestly think that Arkham Origins had the best rendition of the Batcave to date. It’s simple, practical, realistic, and iconic. Obviously it’s a “Year One” kind of cave so not everything is in it yet but there’s tons of room to expand and make a trophy room, exit tunnel for the Batmobile, and a mooring but overall it’s got everything else. Batcomputer, Workshop, Medical facility, Training Grounds, 2 elevators to Wayne Manor, garage, Batwing landing pad, forensics lab, and a revolving case for all the Batsuits.

[@Mayhem_jester]

I've always wonder how he got those trophies down there

Cat woman was also introduced outside comics, in the Adam West TV series she was a character made spesificlly for the show. She would later be brought into the comics in the 90's after DC fully acquired the rights to the character, to complete with the sudden popularity of Felicia Hardey Black Cat.

[@trvaron]

The Batcave that embodies everything that I think of as far as a Batcave is from Batman the Animated Series. It's dark with only pools of light lighting up certain parts. It's got the awesome retro -futuristic bat-computer. It's got the awesome art deco styling. It's got the best entrance/exit for the batmobile. It's mainly a huge cavern with stalagtites and stalagmites. It's got all of the depths and levels needed including the water at the bottom for the bat-boat. It's got the trophy room with the T-Rex, the giant penny and the giant Joker card (along with other trophies). It just comes across as so much more legit than the fully furnished headquarters that you typically see in the comic books. I wish that there was a breakdown dedicated to the Animated Series version of the Batcave.
