Top 10 Weird Things About Batman Comics

3 The Whirly-Bat

Batman must stop crime as quickly as possible, which means he needs a fast vehicle to transport him from one end of Gotham to another. He could use any of his Batmobiles, Bat-planes, Bat-Helicopters, Bat-cycles, and Bat-literally any other vehicle. He seems to have them all. There are so many options available to him that some of them seem absurd.

The Whirly-Bat is one of these ridiculous options! The Detective Comics #257 first featured the Whirly-Bat in 1958. The Whirly-Bat, a small helicopter that can be used to perform aerial surveillance and combat, is one-man. They were destroyed on their first mission, however, so they weren’t very efficient. They were not very efficient, however.
