Make Your Own Bat-Plane!

Technically, this is older than the Silver Age, but the geeks at eStragand.com have come up with the following little bid o' fun for you. This is a GIF of a proposed Bat-Plane movie serial promo from the 40's. It's blatantly ripped off from Chip Kidd's incredibly spiffy "Batman Collected"- a nice hardback with all sorts of Batman propoganda, toys, schwag and crap. Copyright 1996 by Bulfinch Press.

Print this sucker out, then follow the directions to make your own Bat-Plane. For best results, I'd recommend printing it out on a semi-rigid card stock. I printed it out on 60 lbs. ink jet paper and was satisfied with it. It's the size of a typical paper airplane and only needs a printable surface of roughly 7 inches by 6 inches. Hardcore fans may want to take a black Sharpie and color in the underside of the finished plane for true authenticity. Umm, not that I would do that or anything...just a suggestion.
