Batman's appearance in DC's new cinematic universe is slowly approaching. We'll finally get to see the Dark Knight and Superman share the big screen in Man of Steel's sequel in 2015, but odds are they'll reveal the character's look well before the film's release (just like they did with Superman). However, seeing as Kevin Smith has teased everyone about the batsuit Ben Affleck will wear, we can't help but speculate over what it'll look like.
This week, we provided you all with ten awesome attires Batman has worn over the years. Surprisingly enough, it wasn't a costume from a comic book that won the poll after two days of voting -- it's one from his latest video game, Batman: Arkham Origins. Take a moment or two to gaze at the glorious costume below.
It's definitely easy to see why a majority of Viners gave this version of the batsuit their vote. Yes, this is a costume Batman wore while he was still new to the scene and Man of Steel II's Batman will be experienced, yet it's still a suit which could apply to any version of the Caped Crusader. It's a practical look, offering just the right amount of armor. It's enough to protect him, yet not so much that it could hinder his movements and render him clunky. Most important of all, it looks downright awesome. Seriously, take a minute to stare at the above image again and try to tell us you honestly don't think that's a good look for Bruce.
Here's the full poll results.
- Batman: Arkham Origins 29%
- New 52 26%
- Pre-52 Jim Lee 14%
- Noel 8%
- Batman Inc. 6%
- The Dark Knight Returns 4%
- Batman '66 4%
- Neal Adams 3%
- Azrael 3%
- Year One 2%
Hey Viners, did Batman's look from his latest video game earn your support, and if so, why do you think it would translate well to the big screen? Or, did another costume earn your vote? Be sure to tell us which did and why. If you feel like going the extra mile, share an image or two to help justify why you think the costume is worthy of serving as inspiration for the upcoming movie.
