Re: How did the Bat-Poles/Automatic Bat-Costume Changer work???

Should the Bat-Show be revived in more modern times, and approached more seriously in that revival than the 1960s Bat-Show was, Batgirl would have holographic camouflage technology to disguise her Bat-Grotto. (It should NOT, in that instance, be called a Bat CAVE, to prevent it from being confused ...

Re: How did the Bat-Poles/Automatic Bat-Costume Changer work???

The DC Comics never referred to any Bat-Poles; those were entirely for television. Instead, the actual procedure the comics described referred to the Bat-Duo switching from their civilian clothes as Bruce Wayne and Richard "Dick" Grayson to their respective Batcostumes as they descended a...
