The one in the Arkham games was iirc Jean Paul, but in the comics that costume was afaik only worn by Micheal Lane.
Personally I would love to see this version of Batman's costume make a return. I really enjoyed it.
Keep your hands to yourself, leave other people's things alone, and be kind to one another.
For me personally I hate Duke's look, but it also just does not make sense with his powers and the whole dayshift thing. If the point is that he's operating in the daytime, then he doesn't need to be super bright right? Cause its already bright. And he has light based powers, I just think that would work better or be a stronger contrast when used at night since there's less light.
Was there ever any explanation editorial-wise as to the change? I know the story reason - it was after Bruce kicked Jason out of Gotham. I'm just wondering because his previous look with the helmet is so recognizable and generally liked, so there doesn't seem like there was a lot of reason to switch to the mask. I mean, it's not like they needed to differentiate him from the rest of the Bat-Fam.
Yeah it’s like, I know DC doesn’t live in a bubble, they have to know the costume’s not very well liked.
That's more small update than real redesign.
I mean it is not that usual that if they start a new run that they let design a new suit, that is basically their iconic look with some details changed, I mean they are doing that with Batman (and a lot of the other Bat Characters) all the time.
I would say me, but my girlfriend has been taking care of that lately, so improvements are underway.
