BATMANSerial 75017583 · Principal Register
Dead · Cancelled
Owner: DC COMICS
Class 042 - Scientific & Technology Services
Filed Nov 13, 1995
Registered Nov 18, 1997
The record shows that the mark “BATMAN” is no longer active; it was cancelled on August 22, 2008 because the owner, DC COMICS, failed to file a Section 8 declaration. The mark had been registered on the Principal Register on November 18, 1997 for class 042, covering scientific and technology services such as providing multiple‑user access to a global computer information network for the transfer and dissemination of a wide range of information. A similar name used in that same field would raise the closest concern, while use in unrelated goods or services would be farther from the scope shown. The cancellation does not mean the wording is free for all uses; it only removes the specific protection that existed for that class. No enforcement actions, oppositions, or cancellations beyond the Section 8 event appear in the supplied history. For someone considering a similar name, the record suggests a meaningful risk if the new use falls within class 042 or a closely related technology service.

The way I'd use it, honestly, is as the thing you attach when a bank, a marketplace, or a co-founder asks "are we clear on the name". It answers in one page.
