    Default Batman's New Costume (SDCC)

    Per SDCC...The Dark Knight's getting a brand-new (??????) suit inspired by his classic costume.

    The question marks are me very much questioning how "brand new" this costume really is.

    The positive is that the trunks are back and I do love the trunks. And I like the costume....I have long liked it (because it's not so brand new).

    Seems pretty darn close (nay identical) to the Hush-era costume.

    Also, what about the oval costume seen in Doomsday Clock?

Adults foolishly demand to know how Superman can possibly fly, or how Batman can possibly run a multibillion-dollar business empire during the day and fight crime at night, when the answer is obvious even to the smallest child: because it's not real.”

    That's great! Trunks rule. And with regard to the logo, it should either be just the black bat or a smaller black bat surrounded by a yellow oval.

    Batman just looks way cooler with the belt and trunks.

    Glad it’s back and they should keep it that way. A lot of his best and most iconic stories are in this suit or a variation of it, so they are only handicapping themselves by not staying with it. The Rebirth suit is not iconic or classic in the way that this suit is.

    Stories in the Rebirth suit are branded in the Rebirth era. Stories in this suit are timeless.
    It's the Dynamic Duo! Batman and Robin!... and Red Robin and Red Hood and Nightwing and Batwoman and Batgirl and Orphan and Spoiler and Bluebird and Lark and Gotham Girl and Talon and Batwing and Huntress and Azreal and Flamebird and Batcow?

    Since when could just anybody do what we trained to do? It makes it all dumb instead of special. Like it doesn't matter anymore.

    Missed opportunity to bring back the oval too. So tired of the plain black bat symbol. Maybe post-Doomsday Clock.

    The oval would've been a nice addition.

    Well, I think the Rebirth costume served well as a good modern Batman costume, Rebirth or otherwise.

    Though even as someone who enjoys classic looks, I'm not sure how I feel about replacing serviceable or good modern looks for old costumes. But that's just me.

    Well, per-Doomsday Clock we know he's not sticking with this costume either.

    Could you imagine getting beat down by a guy who dresses like a bat and wears underwear outside of his pants?

    That's gotta be a top 3 way to immediately lose any future in crimw

    I really like the new/movie costume, though! And I think Wondy's never been more popular, so why change her look?

    I really missed this Batsuit, happy it's back.
    My favorite characters of all time are Bruce Wayne and Dracula.
