utility belt

What does Batman listen to on his iPod while fighting crime? Bluegrass music that’s heavy on the banjos. You heard it here first.

There have been other takes on the Batman Utility Belt in the past, but few are as finely crafted as this version from JLA. Unfortunately, there are no grappling hooks or bat-shaped throwing stars in those leather pouches, which makes it hard to justify spending $280 on. Plus, they claim that it is only “a prop replica only and not meant to be worn.” Please—if I’m spending that much on a belt, I’m going to wear it even in the most inappropriate situations. Situations like: with a suit at work, or when I’m naked and ready for some sexy time with my lady. When she protests, I will simply say: “I’m the Batman.”

Utility BeltSince 1995 is long gone, you probably won’t remember the craptastic film “Tank Girl”, but you can now get a utility belt based on the comic strip that offers everything from tampons to bullets. It may pull your pants around your ankles and make normal activities like sitting down and walking through a metal detector virtually impossible, but it will all pay off that glorious day you’re in desperate need of twine or a Pooh toy.
