BAT-POLL: What Media Made You a Batman Fan?

3101

As 2019 comes to an end in less than two weeks, so does the year-long celebration of Batman’s 80th anniversary.

Since our beloved Dark Knight has been around for such a long time, the character has appeared in various forms of media — comics, movies, TV, and video games and others.

So, in this new BOF Bat-Poll, I ask: Which media introduced you to Batman?

I’m going with “Live-Action TV” because it was the 1960s TV series starring Adam West that started me on the path to my Batman fandom that’s lasted for 50 years now.

Bill "Jett" Ramey
Bill “Jett” Ramey isn’t just a Batman fan — he’s one of the founding fathers of the online Batman community. As the creator and Editor-in-Chief of Batman-On-Film.com, the original and longest-running Batman news and commentary site, Jett helped carve the very bedrock of modern fan internet press. A lifelong Dark Knight disciple, Jett has spent decades championing filmmaker‑driven Batman stories, cutting through fanboy noise with a Texas‑sized dose of honesty, and keeping the conversation smart, civil, and drama‑free. He’s the BOF Godfather — the guy who was here before the hashtags, before the clickbait, before the algorithms… and he’s still here, still talking Batman, still calling it straight. When he steps out of Gotham, Jett is pure Texas. He bleeds Dallas Cowboys blue, blasts Elvis and rock ’n’ roll, and has a deep appreciation for cold beer, dive bars, and Texas Longhorns football. He works out, he cooks, and he can grill like a man who’s earned the right to say “don’t assume” when he tells you he lives in the great state of Texas. He shares that home with his wife — “Announcer Rachel” — and their dogs: Gracelin the Labradoodle and Presley, a rescue pup named after the King himself.
