A star!
Batman is the first superhero to conquer the Walk of Fame
Comic characters such as Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, Bugs Bunny and Snoopy have already been immortalized with a star on Hollywood's "Walk of Fame". Now the first superhero, Batman, has been given a place of honor on the famous sidewalk. The plaque was unveiled in front of cheering fans, guests of honor and photographers.
Wearing a black cape, mask and the iconic bat symbol on his chest, a man posed on the star - it is the 2790th on the tourist mile in the heart of Hollywood.
Ex-Robin among the guests
Among the guests was US actor Burt Ward, who played the young companion Robin in the 1960s TV series "Batman". Ward had his star unveiled on the "Walk of Fame" in 2020.
Before him, Batman actor Adam West (1928 - 2017) and the inventor of the comic hero, Batman illustrator Bob Kane (1915 - 1998), had already been honored there.
The new Batman star is located in front of the Guinness World Records Museum building in Hollywood. The Guinness Book of Records once recognized Batman as the comic book hero with the most appearances in feature films.
First superhero star for Batman
With the first superhero star, another milestone has now been added, as an employee of the company for record-breaking achievements said in a speech.
The dark hero made his first appearance 85 years ago - in March 1939 - in the issue "Detective Comics #27". Cartoonist Bob Kane created the Bat-Man on behalf of National Comics, later DC Comics, together with author Bill Finger. They set Batman in the gloomy metropolis of Gotham City.
Behind the black mask is the multimillionaire Bruce Wayne, who was forced to witness the murder of his parents as a child and then swore revenge on all criminals. His character in the black costume and cape became world-famous through comics, TV series, films, toys and computer games.
