13 MAN-BAT COVERS to Make You Go SKREEEE!

It’s Halloween! Time for superheroes and scary monsters!

The Scarecrow? OK, but that guy is seriously overrated (and overused).

Well, it’s Halloween — a time for costumed avengers and creepy creatures — so let’s go with Man-Bat, the cracked-mirror version of the Masked Manhunter, created by artist Neal Adams and writer Frank Robbins in 1970.

Here are 13 COVERS to make you go SKREEEE!
