    And lastly I have an interesting article on the Cultural Impact of Batman from the Aiken Standard, written by Lauren Haley.

    "Batman is more than a comic book character or a figure on the silver screen, he’s a cultural icon that has touched hearts and lives worldwide.Over the past couple of years, Batman has cropped up in some unusual places. In 2012, the Route 29 Batman, Lenny B. Robinson, was pulled over for having Batman tags – and not real tags – on his black Lamborghini Batmobile. This story made national news.This story made more headlines when the world found out that Robinson was spending his time and money to dress head-to-toe and be Batman for sick kids."
