As you'll recall, Willi wanted to kill Batman for beating the snot out of his poppa, General Von Dort, an incident Batman could barely remember, but still snarkily rubbed it in Willi's face, just so:
No matter how many times I see Batman in that hat, it still stupefies.Did you think that was just a bit of flimsy backstory crafted for Willi to give him motivation to kill Batman? Think again.
If you'll go to your local Big Monkey Comics store, then purchase a copy of the newly-released Showcase Present: The Elongated Man, and turn to page 297, what will you see?
Batman knocking out General Von Dort ...at the climax of a team-up with the Elongated Man. Yep, it really happened in previous continuity.
Sweet, sweet continuity.

The absolute best part is that this story is seriously saying Batman driving blind is in continuity.
Also "Bat-stuff" is real
How is Batman's body accomplishing that pose?
That thing Batman's wearing is just a couple of attachable bottles away from being a beer-hat.

Years of rigorous training in cubism.

Another missed opportunity by DC.
Fredrick Wertham would have had a field day with a Batman whose lower torso could rotate 180 degrees.
In the Silver Age section of the Batman Guide, it points out that "General Van Dort and his Nazi cronies" was one of the groups the Elongnated Man took down. Thanks for bringing this to the public eye, man.
Do you think he made the goggles big enough? Add a little Elmer's glue and a handful of glitter and he's a NASCAR-drivin' Elton John!
Wow, there is a lot of useful data above!
