Batman in various Nordic languages

When I showed the Batman in Icelandic -thingy to Chris (see the post below if you missed the original), I was (once again) laughing too hard. He looks at me and the following conversation takes place:

C: "I see"
C: "so, what's Batman in Finnish then?"
Me: " ... "
Me: "... right..."
Me: *laughs even harder*

FIY: Batman in Finnish is "Lepakkomies"

These amazing shoes were found from Bat Blog (where else)


And as an added bonus, I do believe the Swedes call him "Läderlappen" Correct me if I'm wrong

    He used to be Lynvingen in Norwegian, but as some point they just changed it to Batman.

      Lightning wing? I think he's known as batman in Finland nowadays too, but to be honest, not sure. I know he was lepakkomies when I was a kid... Superman was terasmies (steelman).

      Nice, I do think the Swedes take the cake on this one.

      Kai se on "ihan vaan nahkis kavereille"? (Man, I find myself to be absolutely hilarious)
