Here's the real-life gravesite marker for Bob Kane, the creator of Batman, at the Forrest Lawn Cemetery in Los Angeles, CA. It reads:
"Robert Kane aka Bob Kane....GOD bestowed a dream upon Bob Kane, Blessed with divine inspiration and a rich imagination, Bob created a legacy known as BATMAN. Introduced in a May 1939 comic book, Batman grew from a tiny actor into an American Icon. A "Hand of God" creation, Batman and his world personify the eternal struggle of good versus evil, with GOD's laws prevailing in the end. Bob Kane, Bruce Wayne, Batman--they are one and the same. Bob infused his dual identity character with his own attributes: goodness, kindness, compassion, sensitivity, generosity, intelligence, integrity, courage, purity of spirit, a love of all mankind. Batman is known as the "Dark Knight", but through his deeds he walks in the Light of a Higher Power, as did his creator--Bob Kane!...Beloved Husband, Father, Grandfather. In Loving Memory."
