Evolution of the Batmobile

I noticed this sweet graphic tracking the evolution of the Batmobile that I just spent a fairly ridiculously long time staring at. I've read my share of Batman, but there are tons of designs that I'd never seen.

I've never really liked comics books, but wow, I never realised they could also be so consciously boring visually. Most of the 70s, 80s and 00s designs for the car are appallingly uncreative. Many are virtually or totally unaltered versions of existing cars. In fact the most unique, fresh and striking designs come from the TV, movie and cartoon adaptations.

I guess if you want creativity, you don't look at a medium that recycles the same characters for 70 years.

I've never really liked internet comments, but wow, I never realized that one specific instance represents the entire spread. Most of the .coms, .orgs, and .net sites for social interaction are appalingly uncreative. Many posts are virtually or totally unaltered versions of existing comments. In fact the most unique, fresh and striking ideas come from Fox News, CNN, and Glenn Beck.

I guess if you want intelligent discussion, you don't look at a medium that connects millions of people from around the world together in live discussion.
