Jersey Posted December 29, 2006 Share Posted December 29, 2006 Wow, simply awesome. Thanks for the link Tim. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
veritech-z Posted December 29, 2006 Share Posted December 29, 2006 Uh, does this guy have any idea who Batman was? He is clearly referring to Superman, yet throughout his article he calls him Batman...Batman had no powers at all, just a huge bank account...I know this may be the single coolest invention ever, but that typo really turns me off to the whole thing for some reason...

Why do you need superpowers if you have cool gadgets, and a huge bank account? Let's face it, Batman's a gadget guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

veritech-z Posted December 30, 2006 Share Posted December 30, 2006 Why do you need superpowers if you have cool gadgets, and a huge bank account? Let's face it, Batman's a gadget guy. It wouldn't bother me so much if he actually mentioned the gadgets, but it's stuff like this: However, no-one will ever forget the human who could actually fly and who appeared on earth in 1939. This man could jump and fly through the airs at whatever chosen moment: Batman… Cartoon character created by Bob Kane. and this: And like Batman, when he flies alongside airplanes they can only look and admire him That just get to me a little bit...He went so far as to look up who created Batman, but that's where the accuracy stops...Anyway, I really think this invention great, I've just got a pet peeve about that type of stuff. Get it right (or at least close) or leave it out, know what I mean? It would have made SO much more sense if he'd said either Superman, or The Rocketeer (even better).

cygnusx1 Posted December 30, 2006 Share Posted December 30, 2006 Email him about the Batman thing...I bet it got lost in translation somehow...or maybe he drank too much of that French wine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gollum Posted December 30, 2006 Share Posted December 30, 2006 Well they DID get the bob kane reference correct. I'd assume they used the name batman because he's the only popular HUMAN that ever flew in comics. And batman was quite popular back in the day. I don't understand the "flying with planes" reference, but I've seen some crazy stuff in the dark days of all comic series. Overall, this guy gets the adrenaline junky thumbs up. Way way up.

Gollum Posted January 1, 2007 Share Posted January 1, 2007 Ok, so who's gonna be first to go out and put some turbines on their Z now? They'd be great for a 30-100mph boost i bet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
