How Big is YOURS?

If you’re on this site, then you’re a Batman fan and no doubt have countless amounts of memorabilia. Whether it be movies, comics, underwear or even a lunchbox (in no particular order), you have a precious item(s) that expresses your feelings toward The Dark Knight. Have you ever thought your collection was huge? Thanks to a guy from Indiana (representing my home state), he puts us all to shame.

Kevin Silva is 52 years old, and has spent $100,000 on his “batcave.” He says he caught the 1966 Batman show when he was 5 years old, and never looked back.

“My dad bought the family a colour TV the previous Christmas, so my first images of

Batman were pretty vivid.”

Silva says he received a Batman lunchbox as a gift when he was in kindergarten, and has been collecting ever since. He even has that lunchbox to this day!

I don’t know about you, but I’m jealous of this guy. Granted he’s paid for it ($100,000!!!), and has an understanding family, but I still want what this guy has.

Let’s take a trip down memory lane. My first piece of Batman memorabilia was a matchbox-ish Batmobile from the 1989 movie.
