[hero talk]

I'd like to see Batman go plaid!

Is the suit on on the cover to Batman #50 the new one?

The belt and gauntlets look different, but it's hard to tell if the awful bat knee pads have changed.

Something tells me that's not it. Just a stylized version of the current suit I think. The theoretical supposed changes there look too little to even have a news story on the matter.

This art was out before Capullo announced that he was trying to get his batsuit okay'd so I doubt it is.

I thought the Arkham Knight suit was pretty good. Rocksteady has a really good bunch of costume re-designers.

The yellow oval is back!

Always preferred the oval, nice.

So we finally have the yellow oval back. Awesome .

Looking forward to seeing the rest of the suit.

Batman #51 solicitation reads like a final issue.

Isn't Greg's last #50 iirc?

I thought that "oval" is just the Bat signal above the gotham skyline? I mean it could be back, but we can't be sure based on that picture. Also Capullo's batsuit design was just recently approved, doubt he had the time to incorporate it in the cover. Think he left it obscure on purpose in case his design gets approved.

Either way I still think its just the signal, not the symbol.

Batman's back with a new suit.

Captain America's back with a new suit.

What is it with these two that they continue to have these parallel storylines?

A yellow oval seems like a weird thing to add right after a new Batman movie where he doesn't have one. Not a fan of the yellow oval, doesn't translate well to live action either. The BvS suit was perfect IMO.

I don't think the yellow oval is "back". In that picture it's just the Bat symbol in Gotham's sky.

[JBatmanFan05]

The solicit pic doesn't concretely say the oval is back. It could be, it could very well not be. That could just be the Bat signal in the sky. We just don't know.

Back to speculating what the new suit might look like, because we still have no idea.

Yeah, it could certainly be just for the cover... or, like you said, it could be a bit of a tease of what he wanted to do, before the new suit was officially approved by DC. We'll just have to wait and see.

The movies and the comics don't match up though -- Bruce is really young in the current comic continuity, while the BvS movie is taking inspiration from DKR and making Bruce much older. I agree, that the yellow-oval would look out-of-place on Batfleck's chest, but I think it would be appropriate for Snyder/Cap's Bruce, for his Batman Rebirth.
