Bob Kane

“Bill Finger and I, we created the Batman. I am the sole creator in the eyes of the world, and I've got to live with that.”

“I made a deal with DC Comics that I would be the sole creator of Batman. That's the way the contract reads.”

“I always felt that Batman was more of a detective than a superhero.”

“It was a different time. In those days, it was like, one artist and he had his name over it. The policy of DC in the comic books was, if you can't sign your name to it, you can't have a credit.”

“I think the Batman is a lonely character, and that's what's so interesting about him.”

“Every artist wants to be known for one thing. This is my one thing.”

“Batman is a symbol of justice, a symbol of hope for a city that has none.”

“The creation of Batman was a collaborative effort, but I am the one who had the vision.”

“To me, Batman is a hero in the classic sense, a man who has dedicated his life to fighting evil.”
