Probably one of the most mainstream and inspiring superheroes is Batman (move over, Superman). The Caped Crusader has been the motivator for multiple innovations that have been featured across the web and Trend Hunter.
With rumours browsing around about a possible third edition of the new and improved Batman (Johnny Depp as the Riddler, are you kidding me?!), it’s only fair we give a little respect to the hero himself.
From different batmobiles to posthumous careers, here are 40 Batmannovations.
