The Batcave is a fictional subterranean cave appearing in the Batman franchise, first created for the 1943 Batman film serial. It is the headquarters of the superhero Batman and his partners, and located beneath Wayne Manor, personal residence of Batman's secret identity Bruce Wayne.
The Batcave first appeared in the Batman film serial chapter entitled "The Electrical Brain." Bob Kane, who was on the film set, then portrayed the cave in the Batman dailies on October 29, 1943, in a strip entitled "The Bat Cave!" The Batcave made its comic book debut in Detective Comics #83 in January 1944. Over the decades, the cave has been expanded to include a vast trophy room, supercomputer, and forensics lab. There has been little consistency as to the floor plan of the Batcave or its contents. The design has varied from artist to artist and it is not unusual for the same artist to draw the cave layout differently in various issues.
