Blog Post #6

Has your research focused on the DRIVING QUESTION?

My research has focused on how Batman has changed in the last 75 Years. The changing of the Batsuits and the Batmobiles have changed just as much as anything. Also my research has focused with how the changing of the weapons and Batman himself has changed.



How has your research differed from the plan you created in your research proposal?


The plan i created in the proposal was to find certain changes and now i have expanded and got every possible change there is to Batman and my research has led me to many different things about Batman.

What do you need to change before we begin work on the final product next week?


I don't need to change anything before working on the final product.



What have been your mistakes?


My mistakes so far have been getting the dates work as to when the suits and car have changed.

What have been your successes?


My successes have been the amount of information that i have collected and the amount of details that i have found.

What I have learned about my topic?
I have learned that Batman was originally created to be a Hollywood Villain but the outfit design did not meet the standards of a villain. Batman was drawn by Bob Kane who was a very known artist that needed more work. 

What I have learned about American History?
Bruce Wayne witnessed the death of his parent and was forced to live with the mansion keeper Alfred. It was when Bruce had become older that he came face to face with bats and developed his fear. Bruce used his fear as a way for him to protect the citizens of Gotham.

Where do I go from here?
From here I will start preparing for my final product and gather all nessacary info that is needed 

My plan for next week ?
My plan for next week is to make a collage of batman changing over the years.

Blog Post #2

The past week I have learnt that Batman was created in 1939 and never had a vehicle until 1941. Another thing I have learnt is that "Batman" comes from Bruce Wayne's fear of Bats.

1)Batman was created in 1939. Batman's first appearance was in the May 1939 Detective Comics issue 27. Later Batman had become a major character for Detective Comics. Bruce Wayne also known as Batman was born to Thomas and Martha Wayne. After the death of his parents at the local theater Bruce was left at Wayne Manor along with Alfred the servant. Once Bruce found out who had killed his parents, Joe Chill,  he created Batman as a way to save Gotham and to track down the man who killed his parents.

2)One of the first villains that Batman fought were "The Roman" also known as Carmine Falcone. Falcone was politician of all cities and chief of police. Falcone was the most fought villain of Batman until "The Joker" and "Two-Face" came along. The Joker is a demented clown who has no powers and is just a royal pain to Batman even from the every beginning. Joker is also one of the oldest villains of Batman starting with crime then killing Robin. Two-Face is known as Harvey Dent a District Attorney in Gotham that had two sides and went insane. Two-Face  was obsessed with the number 2.  Catwoman aka Selina Kyle, is another well known villain of Batman that wore a cat suit and had an on and off hate relationship with Batman.

3)In the 1939 comic the Batmobile had not been created yet so Batman and Robin would travel by running or gliding in on a rope. It wasnt until 1941  that DC Comics #31 introduced the Batmobile  along with the Batcycle, Batboat, Batplane and Robin's Redbird.
