The Puzzle

Batman is a cultural iconic comic book superhero who has been adapted into various forms of media. Here is some Bat-Trivia that can help you solve for the final coordinates. Good luck, Detective.

Solve for: N 47 ??.??? W 117 2?.???

Batman's first appearance was in Detective Comics #27.

The design of Batman's cape was inspired by the designs of Leonardo da Vinci's famous flying machines.

Adam West has a Batman logo on his teeth! He starred in the Batman TV show that revitalized Batman in the 1960s. West had a cosmetic dentist put a little Batman logo in one of his molars!

Batman knows over 125 different styles of martial arts.

In July 1939, Doctor Death debuted as the first recurring Batman villain. Also, the utility belt is first spotlighted.

The full name of Alfred, the butter/valet at Wayne Manor, is Alfred Thaddeus Crane Pennyworth.

Batman has been referred to as The Bat-Man, The Batman, The Caped Crusader, The Dark Knight, The World's Greatest Detective, and other titles.

11 characters know or have known that Bruce Wayne is Batman. (Sorry, should have said spoiler alert!) They are Robin #1 (Dick Grayson), Robin #2 (Jason Peter Todd), Robin # 3 (Tim Drake), Alfred Pennyworth, Harold (the Penguin henchman), Superman, Azrael, Batgirl, Bane, Ra's Al Ghul, and Hugo Strange. However, Commissioner James Gordon has had suspicions, but has never been able to confirm them.

Batman has joined or created various teams over the years, including: The Justice League, Outsiders, and Batman Incorporated.

The final is not on the ground. It is not hanging. It's just sitting around, up high...where Batman would perch and watch the lay of the land.
