After inheriting a vast fortune after his parents are
killed by a gangster, Bruce Wayne vows to avenge
their deaths by spending his life fighting crime in
Gotham City. Cared for by Alfred, the family butler
and Harriet Cooper, his aunt. Bruce adopts the
orphaned, teenaged Dick Greyson. Together they
adopt the guises of "Batman" and "Robin"
forming "The Dynamic Duo".
Stories relate their crusade against the sinister
forces of evil. Whenever their services were needed,
Police Commissioner Gordon could summon them with
the searchlight-like Batsignal or call them on
the special Batphone. In addition to the underground
Batlab, they used a marvelously equipped car, the
Batmobile, to chase and apprehend criminals.
