    Don't really see Welling in the photo at all like some people are suggesting, but that's just me. I'm not quite sold on Batman's design. I feel his costume needs to be all black if you're going to lose the trunks. I quite like the Superman design though, especially the gold trim around the shield.
     
    " Show me a Batman I don't know.  Make Batman about a mantle that was handed down from one father to the next and Bruce Wayne is in a long line of Batman trying to live up to the family legacy."
     
    It's called The Phantom.

    "what's the difference between New Earth and Earth 1? " 
     


    @danhimself:
    Well Earth 1 is Mainstream/Continual DCU B4 Wolfman's CRISIS & New EARTH (1986)
    When He Exposed The Multi-verse,,,,,,,,,I guess. 
    sooo SilvrAge 1959 (Flash B.Allen 1st Appr. & JLoA.) - 1986 (Wolfman's CRISIS) = Earth 1     
    &  
    Gldn Age DCU is,,,,1928 - Lost in Time during WWII on Real Earth.-??40's?? = Earth 2 
    DCU Continuity POST (After) Wolfman's 1986 CRISIS/J.Byrne SuperMan ReVamp = New Earth
    at Least thatz how I have kept it straight. 
    &  
    Don't let Morrison's "JLA Earth 2" GrphcNvl Confuse ya,  
    That How The Crime Syndicate (Anti Matter Earth) see's New Earth 
    as DCU Continual, being - Earth 2, to Their Anti-Matter Earth (or Evil Earth) Being 1.

    I kinda wish Superman's outfit could have gotten a revamp, even if only slightly. It'd be nice to see an alternative take on his uniform. But still, I'm getting this.
