Ben Affleck's Bruce Wayne from "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" seems to have a more modern taste in decor than some of his predecessors in the superhero role. He's big into concrete and spare leather furnishings.

You can explore Batman's world, both above and below ground, in an interactive Google Maps stroll through the Wayne residence. This is one time when it's fine to be a nosy voyeur, picking your way through the billionaire's private residence.

The detail is impressive. You can see the texture on the floor and practically count the individual paper clips on Wayne's desk. But enough about the mansion. Head down below into the Batcave and admire the work that went into building the sets and props.

Nice ride, Batman.

The new Batmobile is available for close inspection. There's a spot on the front fenders where the words "No step" are stenciled. Dirt on the tires and body panels makes it look like it was just recently parked after a crime-fighting spree.

Both serious and casual fans will enjoy the in-depth stroll through Wayne's world. Let's all admire Wayne's commitment to safety. There sure are plenty of fire extinguishers down there in the Batcave.

Once you've exhausted the possibilities of poking through Batman's home, cave and arsenal, you can check out some other fictional Google-powered destinations, like a Street View of Harry Potter's Diagon Alley and a map of Middle-earth from "The Lord of the Rings" series.
