Salma Hayek at Batman And Robin Movie Premiere

Here's a celebrity photo I came across on the Internet the other night, at random, totally by accident. I was researching some old Batman movie stuff & when I saw this photo I thought, "Hey, it's Batman-related, I can post it!", ha ha! This is a picture of Salma Hayek at the 1997 Batman And Robin Movie Premiere. Oh My God! She is probably, easily, the most beautiful woman in the entire world! Now, just enjoy... you're welcome.

BATMAN , ROBIN, & NIGHTWING Desktop Wallpaper...and The JOKER Too!

Please remember, every Wednesday here at the Bat-Blog is "Wacky Wallpaper Wednesday"! This week I'm very proud to showcase a special background sent in to us from our friend Alexandre. He made this desktop wallpaper that features Robin, Nightwing, & Batman. Of course they're action figures, but the clever thing is that the whole picture looks like a Sears family portrait...IT'S AWESOME! The lighting, poses, & camera angle, everything, is done very well. I know a lot of people will love it, thank you Alexandre, good job. Now the next background is one that I made. It's not as creative but JOKER FANS should like it. It's the Clown Prince Of Crime as he appeared on the cover to the "Batman: The Man Who Laughs" Graphic Novel. It came out in 2009 & was done by Ed Brubaker and Doug Mahnke, a great book! Please remember that the Bat-Blog has hundreds of FREE Batman-Theme Wallpapers you can use. Just dig through our BAT-ARCHIVES to see them all. That is located on the very left-side of this page, near the middle.

New DC UNIVERSE ONLINE Video Game Wallpaper Backgrounds!

DC Comics & Sony Interactive are starting to sort of hype their DC UNIVERSE ONLINE Video Game again so I thought I would post a few Desktop Background Wallpapers to help celebrate. Shown here are some really great images of The Joker ( my favorite one & on my PC now, ha! ), Mr. Freeze, & Dick Grayson himself, Nightwing! You can get many different ones off their official website, plus see some cool videos, by clicking HERE!

Video - Simon Pegg Makes Fun of Christian Bale's BATMAN Voice

I like the actor Simon Pegg & here's a funny video I came across where he makes fun of the "Batman voice" in The Dark Knight movie...enjoy.

BATMAN DESKTOP BACKGROUNDS - Wacky Wallpaper Wednesday!

At the last minute I just realized it's Wednesday & that means "Wacky Wallpaper Wednesday", Whew! So here's 2 brand-new desktop backgrounds I made using some fun Batman graphics. The 1st one is a comic strip drawing showing the Dynamic Duo having a problem with their dinner at a restaurant, ha ha! The next one is an image from that "Mortal Kombat vs DC Universe" Video Game. What ever happened to that? It sort of died. I never really cared for the MK franchise but this game was pretty cool. Please feel free to check out the BAT-BLOG ARCHIVES for many more wallpapers. It's located on the left-side of this page, near the middle.

DC Universe Batman Action Figure of the Gray Ghost!

Oh yeah, at this year's 2010 San Diego Comic Con there was a lot of news about brand-new Batman toys & action figures that will be coming out later this year but my favorite thing is the fact that Mattel, in their DC Universe line, will be coming out with "The Gray Ghost"! He was a character created during the TV run of Batman: The Animated Series & appeared in an episode called "Beware the Gray Ghost". It's one of my all time favorites! It was a really great story but the cool thing was that they got Adam West to do the voice acting for that character. It was really a big deal at the time. You know, to sort of have West come back to the "Batman world". Basically, the Gray Ghost was an old time TV series that a young Bruce Wayne, as a small child, loved to watch with his Father & it inspired him deeply. In fact, after becoming Batman, he used his memory of the floor design to the "Gray Ghost's Lair" to design the total look of the Batcave. In other words, the Gray Ghost was Batman's childhood hero. The story had some interesting angles like showing the life of the "Gray Ghost" actor in modern times & how he was always broke & having a hard time paying the rent. He thought he was a has-been, but all the while he never knew how important he was to so many people who grew up watching his show. It was a very heartwarming side-story, sort of a cautionary tale. Anyways, just check out the photo of the figure, it's AWESOME! Also, for fun I posted this video down below of a Fox TV promo for the "Beware the Gray Ghost" episode.

New HOT WHEELS BATMOBILE Cars & IMAGINEXT BATMAN Action Figures From Mattel for 2011

OK, Here's some more fresh news from Mattel that was presented at this year's 2010 San Diego Comic Con & I'm sort of reporting on 2 different toy lines here, Hot Wheels & Imaginext Action Figures. The 1st photo shows a few new HOT WHEELS Batmobile cars to keep an eye out for ( But don't start camping out at Toys-R-Us tonight because these won't come out for a while - just stay tuned to the Bat-Blog because you know that when they come out we will be spazzing-out, ha!). It looks like they'll have some interesting new Batmobiles in 2 different series. One is the "Custom Motors" line & the other one is the "Color Shifters". The Custom Motors car is the Tumbler Batmobile from The Dark Knight movie & it looks like you'll be able to customize it like a model kit or something. I don't think I have ever seen this toy line before & it looks pretty interesting. Now the next one is the Color Shifters car & it looks like the Batmobile from the 1989 BATMAN movie, awesome! I've seen these before & they're kinda neat. They have special paint that changes color when you put them in hot water. This one has "flames" on the hood. Now the next major toy line covered here is the IMAGINEXT Action Figures, Vehicles, & Accessories. I know these are made for small children ( which is great ) but I gotta admit that I totally love these! The main 2 things to share here is the Batman figure with his Bat-Boat & Killer Kroc with his Swamp Boat. Plus, if you look at the picture with the Batboat, you'll also see the Riddler with his Riddler Car...awesome!

New DC UNIVERSE CLASSICS Action Figures & ACTION LEAGUE Mini-Figures From Mattel for 2011

OK Kids, here's some really great photos to totally drool over, ha! While at the 2010 Comic Con the Mattel Toy Company gave a presentation of some upcoming toys they will release later this year & early 2011. This post is about their DC UNIVERSE CLASSICS Action Figures & we're mainly covering the Batman-related characters. As you can see they're gonna make some really great figures for this series. Just to be clear, what is shown here is "WAVE16". Wave 14 is shipping now & Wave 15 will come out in early fall. But back to Wave 16, look at what they have here! We got AZRAEL from the 1993 Knightfall storyline, the Villain BANE looking all buff & mean, The RIDDLER ( looking like he's from the Silver-Age, cool! ), & 2 different versions of Dick Grayson as ROBIN, The Boy Wonder! The Robin figures look the same to me except for the heads. One kind of looks like he's from the 1940's, while the other one reminds me of the 1970's Super Friends. Please tell me, which Robin do you like the best? Alright, now the very last photo is some of the mini-figures from the ACTION LEAGUE series. They're gonna have a ton of these of Superman, Green Lantern, etc...but here are 2 favorites, Batman & The Joker! I really like these, they're pretty cool!
