Batman’s 80th Anniversary at SkyAvenue, Resorts World Genting

Are you a fan of Batman? Well, yours truly is more to a Superman fangirl, but I do find that Batman has a mysterious and dark appeal to his brooding alter-ego persona, and so, when I heard that the hero from Gotham City will be making appearance at Resorts World Genting, I knew I had to check him out.

Yes. That’s me. Standing at the Bat Call Sign in hope to see Batman. I know it’s not an emergency or anything and one should not misuse the call sign to summon Batman, but hey, he’s somewhere around in Resorts World Genting, and I really want to see him. Batman first appeared as a socialite turned crime-fighter Bruce Wayne in DETECTIVE COMICS #27 on March 30, 1939, and has stood a symbol of determination, bravery and justice to generations of fans for 80 years. Who wouldn’t want to be up close and personal with him? I sure do!
