God the tactical suit is just so awesome to me

It's absolutely amazing.

 

[Baneis8feettall]

I like BvS suit better.

 

[AvegningSpider]

Yes yes yes!

Gotta love the classic Oval/Blue suit!

Gotta love the classic Oval/Blue suit!

I really hope we see this on film one day.

 

[TX85]

I do too!!

 

[GothamBat]

This is what I'd eventually like the standard batsuit to look like

All black again would kinda be a step backwards but the symbol is close to this want

The Batsuit is cool and all but... Can we get some concepts of Deathstroke and Robin/Nightwing?

This is a Batman thread, so no.

No thanks, the organic approach is the best approach and that is far from organic.

This illustrates why I'd like them to slim the suit down in The Batman. The current suit is very top-heavy.

 

[BRGomes]

I would like a suit a bit more slimmer too. Maybe with the classic oval yellow symbol.

 

[FunkMiller]

He definitely needs slimming down by quite a lot. At the moment, he's bordering on tubby. The guy is supposed to be a stealthy, powerful creature of the night. This desire to ape TDKR has puffed him up way too much. A sleeker, trimmer, more agile Batman is the way to go.

 

[Loden Greatstorm]

Still wanting a navy/grey costume.

 

[Boom]

I think a shade of blue similar to what they used for Captain America would work just fine.

He's been depicted as a considerably large person in a lot of the more modern comics.

The desire to see him look a bit sleeker is a visual preference, and despite his size, the films thus far have depicted him as very agile and physically capable and stealthy when he wants to be. His size isn't limiting what he can do in any real sense.

He's not as slender as say, 1970's versions of the character might have been (who were nonetheless still depicted as fairly heavily built), but I think you can make an argument that what we're seeing is comparable to many portrayals from the comics.

Yes

Personally, I'm all for the Beastfleck. haha I thought he looked great in BvS. The whole ideology behind Batman is to instill fear. It's something he did effectively in Batman v Superman (I thought). And personally, I feel some shots wouldn't have been as effective if he were slim.

For instance...

When he was standing in the doorway of Luthor's cell. If he were a slimmer build, I don't know if it would have been as effective. A larger stature I think makes him more imposing. I've said this before but, if I were a bad guy and I was operating in Nolan's universe...I would still do crime. Albeit a little hesitantly. If I were in the universe that had Affleck's Batman...I wouldn't mess with my odds. I'd find an honest job.

I think my only complaint is, I like the BvS suit more than the Justice League one. I want them to go back to the grey and black look. New one, in some instances, looks kind of black on black.

Just my two cents. I look forward to seeing the iterations of this suit evolve though. Can't wait to see Reeve's take!

I agree. That whole hulking physique makes him more bestial and scary. When he was approaching that thug he previously pinned to the wall in the warehouse fight, I almost felt bad for the guy.

All more than fair enough

Hmmmm... maybe it's less about his size, and about the way the suit sometimes accentuates the bulging muscles a bit too much. That's what puts me off a bit. Keep the size, but maybe make the suit a little sleeker... and make the ears a little larger.

Truly hope they keep the black and gray aesthetic along the lines of Batman V Superman, Suicide Squad and the non tactical Justice League suit. Or maybe a variation of the Batman V Superman Bat-suit with maybe dark navy blue instead of black. Just please not regressing back to all black again.

I really hate the fact that the neck is thinner. Had the same problem with the TDK suit. I just can't stand Batman with a thin neck. A thicker neck makes him look like an animal, a lot more menacing and aesthetically pleasing.
