For the first time in the history of the legend of the Caped Crusader, the legions of fans who have thrilled to Batman's death defying exploits are actually experiencing this excitement in person. The 20-minute stunt show features state-of-the-art pyrotechnics, special effects, high-tech sound, and a unique lighting set against a dramatic back-drop. Set within a recreation of Gotham City, complete with City Hall, Axis Chemical Factory, and Wayne Manor, the audience participates as Batman battles his enemies. This is one of the most elaborate stunt show attractions ever created for a theme park. The show opened at Six Flags Over Texas, Six Flags Great Adventure, and Six Flags Magic Mountain (the three opening days were only one week apart - a feat never accomplished in theme park history). Batman led the three parks to increased attendance, including an all time record in Texas. Most recently, the attraction has become a permanent attraction at the new Six Flags America in Maryland.
