New Batsuit: Love it or Hate it? (Poll)

[Maxpower00044]

Ok, I've read #50:

1) the suit does look better in action in #50....but has me wondering if only Capullo and really great artists can make it work long term

2) The epilogue by Yanick Paquette to #50 shows a COMPLETELY different all-yellow belt.....which is like..."well, which is it!?"

There's actually early panels by Capullo that show the belt as yellow. It's yellow, it's just shading that's making it black in some panels.

Edit: First panel after the splash of the suit reveal shows the belt as completely yellow.

Ok, I skim read. It's weird...it looks black in many or most panels as far as Capullo.

Especially unusual when the belt was already yellow in the past costume.

I like it except for the gold outline of the bat symbol and lines on the suit. It's not practical for a character who relies on being in the shadows and blending in at night.

It'll take getting used to it, I always liked the yellow emblem though so I'm glad that's there. The purple lining is cool if capullo was drawing it all the time, but it could be weird drawn by others. We'll see.

A yellow outline doesn't make a difference. The thing about shadows and night is they're dark, and even bright colors aren't very visible (unless they're designed to be with reflective surfaces). A little bit of yellow isn't going to stand out in the dark.

They got rid of the seams, mostly, on the character that made sense to have seams. Let's hope the other costumes follow suit, especially Superman.

I voted for "hate it" because the poll is binary, but my reaction is really more meh. Reminds me of the design they're using in the Batman Unlimited kids' toyline.

I'm tempted to edit the poll to add a "middle-ground" choice, because I don't love or hate it...

Now that I've actually read Batman #50, I can say that I like it a tiny bit more than I did at first. I like Paquette's version of it more than Cap's. It appears that the belt is actually just yellow, but heavily shaded at times. I like that all the extra lines/seams are gone from the suit, and I like that the inside of the cape appears to be light purple.

Not feeling it.

Although I like the inclusion of Gold in Batman's design, I don't like this perticular use of it...

I always felt DC should have stuck with the Batman Inc. design, personally - it really felt like classic Batman, but modernized.

For reference:

I loved the Batman Inc. suit -- I really miss that.

Not love it or hate it, but a big 'meh'

The changes are too minor imo, it's like some artist different interpretation of standard Batsuit. The new suit does not even have any new function for #50 so I don't see it as necessary

I like it very much. Sleek, highlight with the yellow outline.
Has a nice, simplistic design to it. Overall only positive for me.

[CoffeeCup]

The more I look at it the less and less I like it. The is one of the worst customs batman has ever worn. The only thing I remotely like about the changes is the yellow trim, even though I prefer it without the trim, I can live with that. Every other change was horrible IMO.

[JBatmanFan05]

Don't like it for now, but will wait to see how other artists handle it. Paquette and Cap haven't given me a good enough idea of its long term chances.

[Celgress]

I'm torn, I like certain aspects but the yellow trim is rather garish.

Funny thing that. I originally wasn't going to have it because I felt that a neutral option would not add to the poll since a neutral opinion didn't add anything. I then decided that having a neutral opinion was a valid opinion and added it, but I filled out the info wrong on the poll and when I went back to correct it I didn't check to see if it reverted to the binary choices, which it did.

[Kingcrimsonprog]

Looks good to me, I don't get too picky between designs. Its not pink? Its not a robot? Sounds good to me.

Other than the belt, I like it.
