MoreMan-Bat (Robert Kirkland 'Kirk' Langstrom) is a fictional supervillain and anti-hero appearing in comic books published by DC Comics, commonly as an adversary of the superhero Batman.
The character has been featured in various media adaptations, such as feature films, television series and video games.
Dr. Kirk Langstrom, a zoologist who specialized in the study of chiropterology, developed an extract intended to give humans a bat's acute sonar sense and tested the formula on himself. The extract worked, but it had a horrible side effect: it transformed him into a monstrous human/bat hybrid creature. This side effect made him so distraught that it temporarily affected his sanity and he went on a mad rampage until Batman found a way to reverse the effects.
Later, Langstrom takes the concoction again and the Man-Bat returns. He also coaxes his wife, Francine Langstrom, into drinking the serum and she goes through the same transformation, becoming the She-Bat. Together, they terrorize Gotham City until Batman once again restores them to normal.
