After the short-lived "dealer stock" wave of Batmobiles in the early 1970s, the comics began to move back towards the wild custom designs that define the Batmobile in 1975. The car was based aesthetically on sports car racers of the time, and in particular shared a lot of features with the Chaparral. Unlike real-world cars, however, the Batmobile had a nearly vertical windshield, and the rear of the car was scalloped to mimic Batman's flowing cape. The hood emblem returned on this car, though instead of a "bat mask" it was the yellow oval with black bat logo that had recently appeared on the animated Superfriends car. Though this particular feature didn't last long in the comics, the concept of the car was carried through into the next decade and the next Batmobile. |
