    @soduh2: yes. I just didn't want anyone telling me it was irrelevant because the dark knight trilogy is not in continuity, I just thought it would be a fun thing to share with the cv community.

    Movie Batman= Could afford, but you'd probably still die. 
     
    Comic Batman= Not enough money, or rather you'd need multiple lifetimes.

    You should multiply their estimated cost by 10, as there is no way you won't need multiple replacements on each item.

    Seen this before stacked up against the cost of being Iron Man (unsurprisingly also staggering). I HIGHLY question them rating 3 batarangs as $1,000, though. Minuscule amount by comparison, but seriously.

    The estimate seems very low, except for the cowl.
