Batman Is Officially From New Jersey
Sean Curry
1. The 1990 edition of “The Atlas Of The DC Universe” puts Gotham City on the north side of the Delaware River.
Wikipedia confirms it, as does the DC Comics wiki.

2. Which means that Bruce Wayne is a Jersey Boy.
And you are going to have to deal with that.

6. And everyone is just going to have to deal with that.

Maricela Gonzalez 2 months agoSo you’re telling me Gotham City is basically just Camden if Camden had developed into a city more akin to Gotham than the one it is now? Head canon accepted…may or may not be due to the fact that I’m from Camden.

billyd8 2 months ago1) Batman is older than Springsteen and Jon Bon. The article would have been better off name dropping the great Franks, Valli & Sinatra. 2) Being from Weehawken, the bluffs above the Hudson at Port Imperial Blvd, Bruce would likely be getting his “Sub” at his local neighborhood Italian deli. 3) The Batusi was first performed at Club Zanzibar in Hoboken in 1952.
