Bob Kane and Bill Finger were, of course, the original creators of Batman.
In many people’s minds, Finger is still a somewhat neglected figure in comic book history, but his contribution obviously isn’t lost on the creators of Powerless as the new image attests.
It remains to be seen if this unusual mix of comic book characters and workplace comedy will go over with fans, but if the popularity of shows like Gotham, Supergirl, and The Flash are any indication, Powerless should have a good chance to catch on.
Kane received all the credit for years but after Finger’s death, Kane acknowledged that his partner deserved to be considered a co-creator of the iconic hero and his arch-nemesis The Joker.
