The Bat-Mech suit from the Batman Vs Superman trailer is kick ass
I read an article recently about why the new Batman vs Superman trailer is worrisome and while I agreed with about 70% of the authors points his issue with the new Bat-Mech suit is completely out of place and shows how he is not a true Batman fan.
Readers of the Dark Knight Returns (the comic, not the movie) will recall that Batman did indeed have a suit of mechanized power armor that he did used to fight against none other than Superman. Seeing that suit in the trailer actually gave me a sense of reassurance that maybe there is hope for this movie.
Of course with the exception of the Dark Knight Returns and a couple of Justice League stories (the Tower of Babel for example) most of the Superman/Batman crossover has been dead boring. They are just not in each others league. Batman can’t actually compete against Superman should Supes opt to stand a ways off and burn of Batmans head with heat vision and Superman can’t compete with Batman either intellectually or in coolness. It’s like watching two guys missing the opposite arms try to arm wrestle.
That being said I do have hope for this film and will keep my fingers crossed.
The image above is a Batman hoodie that we just added to the Arkham Knight collection. I just like it a lot.
