These can be found both for children or adults and they can successfully transform even the most skinny and most unassuming guest into a formidable superhero with bucket-loads of charisma.

Batman or 'The Dark Knight' was created way back in 1939. Not only is the character still in existence, he is now more popular than he ever was. Along with other superheroes such as Wonder Woman, Superman and The X Men, The Caped Crusader has a huge fan base. The TV series of the sixties was incredibly popular and the string of movies has made the makers millions of pounds. Even after seventy years, toy shops are still full of figures and vehicles from the stories.

You will soon discover that there is a huge selection of websites that stock Batman costumes. The range consists of around 300 variations to choose from and there is a great deal of accessories to go with them. Depending on exactly what it is that you want, you can pay very little for Batman costumes or an awful lot indeed. You can keep it simple and go for a plain style suit or you can opt for an outfit that has such features as a built-in chest with six pack abs.

Batman today remains the most recognized fictional character, leaving behind his superhero theme and attaining the popularity of other greats like Sherlock Holmes and Dracula. Batman is a modern legend, and this year, the latest adventure stetches our Caped Crusader even further. In Batman: RIP, the Dark Knight comes face to face with powerful personal attacks, in an attempt to crack him.         

 The story of RIP was started long before the storyline by Grant Morrison. Batman is under assault by the Black Glove. The Black Glove knows a much about Bruce Wayne, both costumed and as a civilian. The first attack is brutal: His girlfriend is taken, and Bruce is driven insane by an implanted keyword and injected with halucogenic drugs. The villain of the Black Glove tries to destroy a good man and enslave him.                                
                                
Bruce Wayne in anticipation, had created a second personality. This 2nd Batman is based on a story involving an alien from a distant planet. This Batman is inspired by the real Batman, and tackles criminals in his honor. Our distant Batman acquires powers similar to Superman. The suppressed personality, the Batman of Zur-En-Arrh, is a perfect Batman who is unstoppable in his search for justice, and is a pure machine. He strikes back against those who try to stop him, until he is broken, due to the Joker and his girlfriends betrayal. The Black Glove tries to bury Batman and then damage his corpse beyond recognition.                                
Our superhero awakens from the attack and snaps out of his second personality state and strikes back at his enemies, after having assessed their weaknesses, and destroys them. What RIP represents is not his physical. Bruce Wayne emerges out of RIP alive, but his spirit is truly shaken.                                
                                
Grant Morrison wrote this story with the intent of challenging the Dark Knight, but also of reinstating Batman's weird history.
