The infographic, created by MoneySupermarket.com, looks at how much it would cost to run Batman's empire. The main conclusion? It's not easy on the wallet. \nIn fact, Batman's collection of vehicles alone cost about $80 million. His Tumbler/Batmobile alone has a price tag of $18  million due to its jet engine, front-mounted machine guns, remote-control system and GPS technology.\nMeanwhile, it would cost about $37,000 each year to run Wayne Manor and the Bat Cave.
