10 Superpowers You Never Knew Batman Once Had

1. Giant-Sized Batman

Batman Powers
DC Comics

As should now have become clear, Batman's early adventures were...well, weird. That included being turned into a thirty-foot giant by an evil scientist's Maximizer Ray, and with the only way of restoring himself to his regular size being a Minimizer Ray, this massive Caped Crusader rampaged through Gotham City searching for the criminals who had that.

Along the way, Batman essentially become a human version of Godzilla, causing all sorts of inadvertent destruction to his home as he leaves craters in the ground and knocks down buildings.

Eventually, he heads to the city's outskirts where he can do no damage, but soon comes face to face with that scientist and a battle of the titans ensues after the villain is also abnormally enlarged.

Eventually, Robin shows up with the Minimizer Ray, and saves the day, and both of those devices were destroyed. Honestly, though, Giant-Sized Batman was kind of useless, and won't be missed!
