Hong Kong-based freelance designer David Lo illustrated this graphic series of Batmobiles past and future. Its inception was as a red sedan, only referred to as "his car," in Detective Comics #39 in 1939. From that unceremonious origin to its future in the 2016 film Batman vs. Superman: Dawn of Justice, the Batmobile has undergone many transformations to more resemble its superhero driver, while always remaining sleek and stylish.
