Those of use who might be (or might not be) looking forward to Joseph Gordon-Levitt as the next Batman, it might be a good time to look back on the past 75 years to see exactly how the Dark Knight has been portrayed … at least in logo form.
From FastCoDesign: Designed by Cathryn Laver from Calm the Ham, the graphic traces the evolution of the Batman logo from its earliest iterations in the comics of the 1940s through its use in Adam West’s delightfully campy TV take in the ’60s, Frank Miller’s dark graphic novels in the ’80s, and George Clooney and his nipple suit in the ’90s, and ends with the multimillion-dollar Dark Knight films today. The genus is always quite clearly bat, but unique species abound.
