BATMAN - FUNKO POP 275

Batman (1989), directed by Tim Burton, marked a groundbreaking moment in the superhero genre. Starring Michael Keaton as Bruce Wayne/Batman and Jack Nicholson as the Joker, the film brought a darker, more gothic tone to the character, departing from the campy 1960s TV series. Gotham City is depicted as a grim, atmospheric metropolis, and the film’s blend of stylish visuals, Danny Elfman's iconic score, and Nicholson's unforgettable performance as the Joker helped redefine Batman for a new generation. Batman (1989) not only revitalized the franchise but also set the stage for the modern superhero film era.
