Batman Run 2019: Become the Superhero You Knew You Could Be

For runners who grew up with the legend of Batman firmly affixed to their psyches, this cartoon character was more than a fantastical hero who stood for right and wrong. He reminded fans good character remains an important part of every person’s makeup.

“Born” in 1939, Batman was conceived by cartoonist Bob Kane in response to “National Comics” editor Vin Sullivan’s request for a new superhero so unique, he would look like no other. Kane succeeded, as every child will agree!

Who was Batman?

By day, he was the bored socialite Bruce Wayne. By night, he donned his signature costume and swung into action as a dedicated crime-fighter ready to rid society of bad people. In his garage, a Batmobile stood ready to help him battle crooks and criminals and by the 1940s, he was joined by Robin the Wonder Boy who remains a trusted sidekick.

Batman fought against a quirky collection of bad people that included The Joker, the Penguin and CatWoman, but Batman also found love with photo-journalist Vicki Vale in 1948. During the 1950s, more characters were added to Batman’s world including BatGirl and Ace the BatHound, a dog who wore a mask to help fight crime.

Batman became a TV series and movie star as his list of adversaries grew. Today’s Batman image has been “updated,” but the character’s dedication to protecting citizens of the world has never changed. No wonder run organisers chose this character as the symbol of Singapore’s upcoming Batman Run.
