Batman....

Ever since 2015, the year where Bill Finger was given patrial credit for creating Batman, the once unknown Bill Finger has been given more attention and respect than ever before. There was even a Hulu documentary about him, called Batman and Bill, that explained the true story behind Batman's creation.

Batman was created in 1939. Between the years 1939 and 2015, full credit to Batman's creation was given to Bob Kane, an artist who had the initial idea to have a superhero called Batman. It can't be denied that Bob Kane was an essential part to getting Batman made. However, the Batman we know...
