Does anyone know the source of this Batcomputer photo?

Post by BiffPow »

Found this unusual (and more recent) version of the 1966 Batcomputer online, but the link doesn’t contain the photo or any reference to where or when this photo was taken or whether this is an original Batcomputer that has been reworked or someone’s modern re-creation. Does anyone on the board know anything about this? Was this one of the items in the recent Batman museum exhibit? Any idea on who owns this or where it can be found?

That looks like Andy Brescia's and that photo may have been taken at ComicConn in Connecticut.

AWESOME PHOTO! 🤯

Lee did look great at 82. I don’t think I ever saw her looking anything but happy.

Is that an original prop? I’ve been trying to ascertain what the panels on the right are. They look like vintage avionics or radio/lab panels, but I can’t read any of the markings when I examine photos. Considering changing my Batscanner to the Batcomputer so I can recreate the “Lost in Space” navigation console using the radar sweeps.

The bobblehead Catwoman (which everyone advertises as Julie) looks like Lee to me, and the new McFarlane “Julie” figure looks like a mashup of Lee and Julie. My friend dubbed it “Julee Newether.”
