Geeky Tattoo Series - Batman!

I can only think of a handful of interests or love for characters that have lasted my entire life.  Actually, maybe only a couple.  But Angie has always been a Batman fan, and she has the photo and the tattoos to prove it.  Check out the story behind her rocking batman tattoos:

 

 

How long have you had your tattoos?
I got Batman (R Hip) in December 2007. And Batgirl (L Hip) was October 2008. They were Christmas presents from my (now)fiance :)

What's the story behind them?

I have been a Batman fan as long as I can remember. My mom and I used to watch the 1966 Batman series all the time when I was little. She made me my own Batgirl costume :) I wanted my parents to name my little brother Batman. They didn't, his name is Patrick but I call him Patman.

I wanted a tattoo for a long time but I had a really hard time trying to decide what to get. I finally decided on Batman because I've been a fan for 25+ years. I don't think that's going to change. I went with Batgirl on my other hip well, cuz she's awesome! If I could, I would be Batgirl.

Did you get any flak from loved ones for it
Not really. My mom totally understood. The only tattoos she argued with me about are the ones on my wrists because they're visible. They aren't geeky other than the colors match some Batsuit colors :D


Any future geeky tattoos planned?
Absolutely. In the middle of my back (between Batman and Batgirl), I am going to have a Joker-related tattoo. I haven't quite figured out the design yet so it will probably be one of the last tattoos I get. Also, my fiance is a big Superman fan so we were thinking of getting matching tattoos of the Superman/Batman symbol.


If you guys end up getting the Superman/Batman symbols, I want to see pics!
