When Batman meets Obelix...



licensed ...

OK, I know the caped crusader had a rough life, but come on ! Holly Pizza Batman ! What will Cats say ? Chasing psychopats around Gotham makes you hungry ? Drinking to much Guiness at the Irish pub with friend Gordon ?

French toymaker JIM made this figurine - the ring on the head meant it could be worn as a pendant of some sort...

Batman, JIM, France, 1970's
The funny thing is that later on, in the 1986 "The Dark Knight Returns" novel to be precise, there is a 55 year old version of Batman going back into the cape. And he doesn't look very slim either.
