    And no nipples is also a Very Good Thing.

    YES.

    and so does Batman (me speaking both as a comic books fan and as a girl who knows a hot guy when she sees one).

    Double yes!

    Double yes!

    You gotta love it when comic books update a male character’s look….and make him ten times hotter. :D

  1.  

    That’s what always bugged me about Superman. It’s like he said “My costume doesn’t look heroic enough and—oh crap! I forgot to put underwear on this morning! Oh well. Ma never said anything about them having to be on the inside….” The new Batsuit looks awesome and so does Batman (me speaking both as a comic books fan and as a girl who knows a hot guy when she sees one). And no nipples is also a Very Good Thing.\

    Shortpacked.

    “I’ll have you know my non-underwear strikes fear into the hearts of criminals everywhere.” Yeah, if I were a criminal, I’d be terrified.

    Oh you’re going to make me do Chris Sims’ post with BatBale aren’t you?

    New discussion: As I have proven before, I love Christian Bale as Batman. However, let’s all be honest, he does not pull off the “two voice” trick that Kevin Conroy perfected in B:tAS (and that’s clearly where they’re drawing his voice from).

    Then the other day I was watching this episode and realized…. Misha Collins could maybe do Batman even better than Bale. Just watch his turn from Jimmy to Castiel and… I’m just saying he’d be the only actor I can think of (so far) who could replace Bale.

    Of course, we all know that Christian Bale is Batman in real life.

    Aww, but I like his Batman voice! It’s raw and terrifying! Some dude dressed as a bat swoops down and does that growl, you’d be ready to die of fright. Or… have a slightly different reaction, based on one’s fondess of scary batmen….

    Pirate!Batman looks awesome, I just have to say…

    On the other side, noooo! Of course Bruce is the only true Batman for me ever, but I love having Dick Grayson as Batman! He’s one of my favorite characters. Well, at least he’s still got at least around a year as Batman left…

    On a side note, I wonder what they’re going to do with him afterwards? Just shunt him back down to being Nightwing? Because it seems like he’s somewhat outgrown that role…

  11.  

    Ok Willow et al, this is probably the best clip I could find of Misha doing the voice switch. Although this one isn’t bad too.

    The first one really shows him switching from “dope” to “badass” like bruce wayne should.

    Yeah, but… Ibn al Xu’‘fasch?! That’s as impossible to pronounce as Mxyzptlk.

    “Damian” does sort of hit you over the head with a sledgehammer that he’s going to be, at best, an anti-hero, though.

    What makes it worse is that that is not a chopping sword. Far too thin. That’s a stabbing sword/lance if anything.

    That’s as impossible to pronounce as Mxyzptlk.

    Or, say, “Shrrg”.

  15.  

    There could be some errors in the art Taku. Judging from the perspective and angle, I’d be willing to bet that maybe the sword is thicker than it seems.

    Or Daimen knows this and isn’t intending to kill Batman but wound him.
