I desperately wanted to own a Whirlybat! 

I'm disappointed there was never a Bat-train.

Bring back the Whirlybat!!!

Honestly...yes. No need to worry about 3 am traffic in Gotham!

(Also a lot of civilians looking up and going "what the hell is...oh, it's just Batman.")

Yellowjacket- 1969 Dodge Super Bee. Yellow w/black hood of course.

I'm not a Mopar guy but I couldn't pass that one up.

Did Batman ever have a blimp? My memory tells me there was a Bat-blimp in one tale, possibly a 1950s or 60s story.

Robbie, I don't recall any Bat-Blimp... but I DO recall the Flying Batcave. Because somehow, some villain in Gotham City got Batman prohibited from entering city limits on the ground.

Makes me wonder why Batman simply didn't change identities for a while. Hmm... that might be an interesting topic for discussion!

In the 80s, a company called London Editions Magazines (owned by publisher Egmont) reprinted some 50s tales. I recall the Flying Batcave!

There was a Spider-Man period, possibly during Howard Mackie's era, where Spider-Man adopted other identities for a period (I can't recall the reason, but the web-slinger wasn't in a position to continue as he had done).

Oh, and this is the best Batmobile:
