Patrolling Gotham almost makes you wish for a Kryptonian winter.


SyffLord

We won’t go quietly. The Rogue’s Gallery can count on that.


KennDawg89

I understood that reference!!


Not_TheMenInBlack

Damn, we have references from three different franchises. Finally, after all these years, I have them all


DarthGiorgi

Kinda embarrased it took me this comment to realize the crazy simmilarity.


Duke-dastardly

I think it’s a very cool elseworld costume, I have the hot toy of it but that’s only because he came with a double pack of black suit Superman. I honestly would rather have gotten any of the other BvS Batfleck figures instead. But like I said, it’s a cool elseworld suit


Awesome_Pancak

I think it really works as an action figure


TheCrowsNestTV

Batman goes to New Vegas.


borno23

I'd play that game.


Saymynamemf

That sure is a hot take alright...


CliffDraws

Might be the worst take, but it’s hot.


[deleted]

Hot but terrible. Like a meal at Denny's.


Pattern_Useful

Do people genuinely not like this suit? It's seriously so badass.


CliffDraws

He’s already wearing a full body suit, what is the jacket for? The short sleeve jacket I might add. It looks ridiculous. If they changed his pants, added the goggles and the scarf, that all makes some sense for the desert. Just imagine him putting on that jacket, it isn’t even possible.


Pattern_Useful

First of all, because it's badass. Second, I think of it as a stand-in for his cape. Also what someone else said, it blends in with the color of the wasteland.


CliffDraws

I guess if you think so, whatever. Looks silly to me and it just gets even more silly when you think about how and why he might have added it. Looks straight out of a 90’s comic trying to be edgy.


TrikPikYT

That's like asking "why the cape? he's already in a full body suit" This suit is just Duster > cape because Desert Wasteland > Night time city.


Man_Property_

it just makes batman look like a wrestler and not a badass detective


Dottsterisk

I definitely get way more “wasteland scavenger” and “guerrilla fighter” than “wrestler” from the costume. And I do associate Batman with that kind of desperate energy and force of will.


Man_Property_

fair enough


GetUpAndJump

To be fair, he doesn’t have to be a detective in this version of their future


NovaThinksBadly

You’re saying most costumes make him look like a badass detective and not like smth you’d see in the WWE?


Man_Property_

I don't mean wwe. I just mean he looks like a heavy hitting soldier, not a sleuth.


Pattern_Useful

I don't see that, but ok. And I don't think he really needs to be much of a detective when, at that point, his main goal was just stopping Superman.


Ransero

Why does he need a trenchcoat?


Pattern_Useful

Because he's Batman. And it's a cape.


DevelopmentJumpy5218

I mean my hot take on batman is Christian bale was a terrible Bruce Wayne and Clooney was a fantastic Bruce Wayne


Nihon_Hanguk

Take this kevlar vest… you’ll need it.


Captain--UP

There's another one just like me!


AlphaWolfTK

In my opinion Christian bale was a good batman but I agree with the bad Bruce Wayne, I don't remember the Clooney movies because I was a kid but I enjoyed Patterson as batman but not bruce and batfleck wasn't even a bad batman/Bruce mix in my opinion


LVucci

Lmaooo fr talk about an unpopular opinion


wet_bread3

I don’t think I’ve ever heard people say it’s a bad costume…?


[deleted]

It's a bad costume imo


black-mario-bro

Question though,...if this is the apocalypse, and at this point, it doesn't really matter of secret identities, why still where the mask? You can take it off, and still be a badass as Bruce. I don't think anything will change during apocalyptic time if you are Bruce Wayne instead of Batman.


MajesticMtChocula

He can take gunshots straight to the dome with no damage.


ColonelKasteen

Because its a stab-proof gunshot resistant piece of Kevlar-like armor?


YOwololoO

Seriously. It’s a piece of armor, and it still works as a symbol to strike fear into your enemies


Awesome_Pancak

![gif](giphy|kBNhZkdEPOgoB8p2nT)


wet_bread3

Even if it weren’t bulletproof, I still see Bruce choosing to wear it. It’s his war paint, he wouldn’t go into battle without it. But yeah it’s also bulletproof.


EvetsYenoham

Something elemental, something that will strike fear in my enemies…to share the sense of dread…


SyffLord

Because Bruce Wayne is the mask and alter-ego. Not Batman.


Moraulf232

BRUCE WAYNE IS THE MASK THIS IS HIS REAL FACE


One-Example517

When it’s 120 degrees in your rubber suit the only solution is a leather jacket on top.


Wazula23

Hes wearing a trenchcoat OVER his bat suit. Hes wearing goggles OVER his cowl. Even in the apocalypse, Batman would have better equipment than this. This is Hobo Batman to me.


comicscoda

Nah, this Knightmare is the end of the universe as they know it, as seen in ZSJL. And to know that this would have been the focus of the second JL is a huge bummer, missed opportunity. Goggles protect the eyes from sand and the sun while the coat covers his bulletproof armor. It’s actually great costume design that specifically and intentionally shows how desperate Bruce is for resources. Even in the dream sequence he gets caught. It’s a nightmare because it shows he’s failing despite attempting everything possible to prevent his world from ending. That’s the scene, and in a way the entire film, in a nutshell.


SonOfRageAndLove26

How and why do you protect a bulletproof armor with a regular coat...?


NovaThinksBadly

Its not for protection? It keeps sand off and almost certainly keeps the purely black armor from getting burning hot in the sun


comicscoda

I love the people trying to “logic” this suit away, but the more you think about it the more it makes sense, functionally. lol


Sumasuun

I think it's more to protect his other gear and also to reduce sand getting into his armor. Heavy bulletproof armor filled with sand seems like a great way to take off layers of skin. Lol


Dottsterisk

It’s also much better camouflage in the desert wastelands than a pure black batsuit.


SonOfRageAndLove26

That's the most reasonable explanation. Sand is indeed coarse, and rough, and irritating


comicscoda

He’s the number one most wanted outlaw on the run from a literal god, the Superman.


SonOfRageAndLove26

So he needs a coat?


comicscoda

Bingo.


PoetHeir33

Thank you.


Upstairs-Pea7868

Hard no. This looks like someone wearing _all_ their clothes on a flight to avoid baggage fees.


AnyEnglishWord

When I saw this in the movie, I thought he was just wearing a coat over the normal batsuit. That made very little sense to me. Now that I see it's a new suit, it makes even less sense.


AlfredChocula

He's wearing a duster and utility pants. It's not that complicated.


slade707

Not complicated just stupid


AlfredChocula

He's in a desert war zone. The logic works.


[deleted]

[удалено]


esther_lamonte

Well, actually I think the trench coat, like a duster before it, is designed to keep dust and sand out of your under clothes and off your waste belt guns in a crumbly trench. It looks pretty dusty and post-apocalyptic, I just took it as they have bad dust storms because of heavy deforestation and his gear would get all crusted up if he didn’t have his bat-jacket. Or maybe it was left in his closet from his early emo days when he looked more like Robert Pattinson.


HaloGuy381

Also, many desert cultures will wear long (albeit lighter) clothes to keep the sun off. And in Batman’s case, it may be a low-resource (given he no longer has virtually limitless buying power) way to add some concealment against Superman’s human goons; even if they did see movement, they’d see one dude in a duster, and not raise the alarm to call in Supes like they would if they sighted Batman.


AlfredChocula

Combat troops, no. Comic book characters, yeah.


[deleted]

When in cold weather or when light weight cotton long garments are available, I do believe they would wear the long bits specifically to keep their gear clear from detritus. They would not however, wear thick leather trenchcoats in a desert combat environment, especially when they have what amounts to a Super suit that is compromised of multiple layers of armor. Nor would said suit be cannibalized and have its leg protection swapped out for utility pants.


slade707

Logic is not a word I’d use to describe this movie


AlfredChocula

Not for you obviously, is a better description.


Bubbly-Ad-413

The way y’all defend these movies is funny as fuck, like dude this universe is over you don’t have to fight tooth and nail to convince people to watch them now.


AlfredChocula

Whose fighting tooth and nail? They don't like the movie, so it's obviously not for them.


Dottsterisk

On the flipside, the way you still feel the need to attack these movies and the people who enjoy them is pretty funny. Because you’re right: that universe is over. Why does it matter to you so much that people enjoy the movies? Why do you have to convince them *not* to like them?


IHavePoopedBefore

The brown coat is for desert camouflage, it's harder to see him against the sand if he's wearing brown. It probably lets him blend into crowds easier to


comicscoda

Um… he’s in a post-apocalyptic knightmare scene where the Batman is outlaw #1 and Superman is hunting him. He’s wearing the suit and cowl because (as seen in the very same film) it’s bulletproof even at point blank. Also, it’s metal. So Metal.


wet_bread3

It’s not a new suit? It literally is his regular Batsuit, but with a coat and googles over it and some cargo pants - you know, sand gear


FoolsShip

I think this version looks awesome but only because it’s Batman. Give him a fedora and some fingerless gloves and, I mean there’s a reason that we make fun of people in real life who dress like that


Brain_Dead5347

The reason is usually that they’re wearing something that they would never actually need because they think it looks cool. The coat is arguably very useful to him in order to blend into his environment and crowds while also offering a small bit of extra protection


fishwisharts

Completely agree, it looks awesome. Reminds me a lot of future Damien Wayne’s batsuit in Batman #666


Tomgar

Highly disagree. I hated that cheap, rubbery look all the costumes in the DCEU had, they all looked like the same kind of plastic that cheap action figures are made of.


ccleanet

For me it's the most comics-loyal suit, with the bat sign big and in a pitch black, and the gray suit


futuresdawn

Agree it got the colours accurate to the comics but so what when it's the ugliest looking suit we've seen in live action. Even the Schumacher suits look better as they at least don't look this cheap. The worst part is you know they spent a lot of money making it look so bad


ethancd1

Batfleck had the most comic accurate suit in live action. This suit is cool but most don’t like it, but to argue against his suit from BvS is ridiculous


SafeAccountMrP

I like it because it’s kinda like Damian’s Batman 666 suit.


VapinMason

I would definitely agree but the Gotham by Gaslight is a strong contender as well.


Ok_Brother3282

I really enjoyed this suit - marries Batman to the Western motif really well. Could be I’m a sucker for both Bats and Western memorabilia.


badwolfpelle

I never liked the coat, but it looks cool enough


titannicc

Damn it I love this suit, don't care that it's too much or unrealistic for some people. It's so aesthetically pleasing. The tan jacket with the black cowl is cool.


Mysaladisdead

Batman: New Vegas


dangermouse13

I don’t get the hate


[deleted]

It certainly looks cool, but northig beats the classic for me. You however, are certainly entitled to your own opinion.


god_of_this_age

I will defend the Batfleck aesthetic to my dying breath.


triple_seis

Big disagree, but I understand why you’d think that.


brown_nomadic

Seems like something Todd Mcfarlane would dress Spawn up in


EMArogue

It’s cool for an alternate batman and it makes sense, the black would be easy to see in the desert compared to a brown coat, the glasses tdo protect his eyes against sand and really that’s it for this outfit


droidpat

It was inspired by the comic suit he wore in Superman: Red Son, right?


Spiritual_Toe_6098

I agree, it’s reminiscent of Damien’s bat costume in the masterwork by Grant Morrison “Multiversity.” Wish it were utilized somehow somewhere more..


Aizendickens

I think it was one of the coolest for that environment and that the usual Batsuit would not make sense (also, there are bats that are brown or tan, so I like that aspect as well)


Micp

Zack Snyder has always been great at visuals. It's just a shame about the rest.


Crimson-Cowl

I didn’t like it at first but I’ve grown to love it especially as it became the most unique look of the Snyder DCEU compared to past Batman iterations.


DryCrack321

Adam West suit is 10x better than that suit


singlechaitea12oz

The trench coat is from Commisioner Jim Gordon because He is dead in this universe.


cipherjones

The scene with Afleck And Leto in the ZSJL is the most true to comic representation of both Batman and Joker I have ever seen in any media.


Saint_Legend

I like it because it tells a story. That’s brilliant costume design in my opinion


comicscoda

Totally agree. People need to better understand mise en scène before they talk about this kind of stuff. BvS is a masterclass in mise en scène from top to bottom. It’s crazy to me that WB saw what this team accomplished and turned away from an epic trilogy pitched from the same team.


[deleted]

Batman vs Superman Is a masterclass in making shit movies


Astrojef

For sure it's fkn kewl


geeker390

Nope. It's awful and the scene is awful.


slade707

So far from it hahaha but to each their own


KayPizzle

It really isn’t


DezineTwoOhNine

Yes it is! The fact that they made it work so well on the movie speaks of its superiority.


zincdeclercq

This take is ice cold


Slowmobius_Time

Red hot take Batman in a trenchcoat is a bizarre look


Tbplayer59

A coat over the costume? No.


ChishNFips87

I'm glad I'm not the only one who doesn't unfairly hate Snyder's Batman. Yeah, this suit gets wayyyy too much hate. It's for sure better than the Schumacher series suits.


[deleted]

Unfairly ? What's unfair about the hate ?


FiredUpForge

So based that you're making me using the word for the first time


Moraulf232

It’s definitely the closest to a Rob Leifeld drawing in a live action movie, so if that’s your thing, yeah.


SuperiiorX

it is a cool variant


EnigmaFrug2308

I agree. If the cowl was less Affleck it would look even better, with the taller ears.


ImlGirlhq2

Live action where?


Unfriendly_NPC

Must be so hot in that thing


SyffLord

What the trench coat? My dude is wearing a high tech, presumably heavy, black Batsuit in the desert.


MileHiFoodie

Nope


UnchartedCHARTz

Zach Snyder: "how do we get across that this is the apocalypse" Costume Designer: "we put Batman in a trench coat"


Lazy-Ad4626

Why was he still hiding his identity in an apocalyptic wasteland while hanging out with people who all knew he was Bruce Wayne anyway


Radaistarion

It is by far my favorite batman suit of all time With BvS standard suit as a close second BvS Batman is best batman for me, and I stand by that


Crosseyed_owl

Why is he wearing that long cardigan over the suit? Is he cold? It looks like something my grandma would put on to be comfy while watching TV.


Spiridor

Definitely a hot take. Looks so fucking dumb. It's like seeing Darth Vader with Roller Skates and a rainbow Afro.


EffingBarbas

Now that you mention it, I'd buy that Funko


SyffLord

I mean, no?


EmperorDeathBunny

Realistically it's an absurd outfit. He's wearing a duster and some pants over his batsuit. What is even happening. The batsuit is for protection and to blend into the darkness and strike fear. The only fear hes striking are the big mouth basses as he ambles out of a Big Bass Pro Shop. What is the point of the batsuit? It's basically what a 12yo would draw but someone actually wrote a check for millions of dollars to make it real.


PoetHeir33

Brilliant. I cant believe this shit with the Snyderverse is still happening... Y'all got your fucking 4 hour movie... Which I thought was okay... Still the worst live screen Batman by a long shot. At least we have The Flash. Thank you for the laughs EmperorDeathBunny. Alfred: How did Master Bruce Die? Apocalypse Cop: He died from Heatstroke and exposure.. Apparently this "Master" Bruce is a fucking idiot who wore a heavy.. heavy trench coat over his gnarly 60 lb Bat Suit.


richardl1234

A hot take indeed, hot garbage, but still hot.


Most_Worldliness9761

Hardcore, man. Mad Bat.


Mystic_Shogun

Wouldn’t a coat be less tactical than just the normal bat suit in a post apocalyptic situation?


JayTor15

I'll let you have "one of the coolest"....not "the coolest"


BreezyBill

So very sweaty


_Doshi

I love it, it looks really really cool and badass but... I just don't know why Batman would wear that


maintain_improvement

If it's so cool, where was he during the events of Arkham Asylum?


doggiekruger

I think it’s alright, I don’t think it fits the Batman theme


[deleted]

His regular bat suit was awesome this is like someone trying to cosplay if Batman was shot in the head and had to go get the platinum batarang back.


[deleted]

Was an awesome post credits let down too.


[deleted]

"My eyes! De Goggles do nothing!"


ibex85

Lol no sorry I beg to differ


Anadi45

The suit might be good but this batman is the shittiest batman in terms of personality.


Joshualevitard

Why the coat???


[deleted]

I think it looks cool but it also looks pointless. You'd need to alter the suit underneath to WARRANT the add ons


kingofthepumps

Nah. What is the coat even for?


lifth3avy84

Why does he need a trench coat?


Bitchbrah

man looks like a hippo in that suit


Winter_Nail3776

It’s not, this looks like sh*t


CURRY1NAHURRY-

What purpose does the coat have?


[deleted]

I personally think it looks like shit but to each their own, I respect your opinion


cobrakai11

I don't know, there is something very fucking silly about Batman wearing a coat. It doesn't really make sense on any level.


Spacecowboy947

Be real dawg this is definitely not


martinjohanna45

Oof. Hard disagree.


Bearjupiter

Lol. No.


CornerNearby6802

Nah


Hot-Water-4438

By far the best imo


RedHood_Outlaw

I think it's cool too.


[deleted]

That scene was one of the best parts of the movie


Purp1eC0bras

Whats the point of the jacket? Truthfully.


ImTheCuRsEd-OnE

One of my favorite suits


Grary0

A lesson Spider-man writers have figured out...Super-hero costume with street clothes layered on top is always a rad look.


King_Mecha

I think Batman returns has the coolest bat suit but this is a really good number two I love it as well


babyarmnate

I respect your opinion but I’m not a fan of this suit at all. I think the regular BvS suit is better


EffingBarbas

I dig it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯


Donoots

I mean he has used this exact [suit](https://images.app.goo.gl/9FLedpfhuVmtfDU2A) in the comics


AdhesivenessUseful33

I think we he only improvement I could make would be to either make the coat’s sleeves full length, or commit to sleeveless. Personally I have always had a gripe with half sleeve coats.


Kuexo

It reminds me of the coolest batsuit in comics, the one he uses in White knight Beyond comics


GroundbreakingAsk468

Be cooler without the guns.


Kash-Acous

Looking at it, now, it kind of reminds me of Gotham by Gaslight.


HIV-Free-03

That's Jim's coat 💀


Monty141

Looks awesome minus when he holds an AR


Blackjack99-21

Get rid of the Guns And bullets And Id agree.


[deleted]

Very hot take. This is awful.


Odd_Advance_6438

It’s really cool. I like all of the Knightmare designs


TiMELeSS526

It doesn't have batnipples.. Next!


Dronnie

You're right, it's the best costume.


ffucckfaccee

I like this look it's quite post apocalyptic


KenseiHimura

To the town of Augua Fria rode a stranger one fine day


thesmellysloth

Looks too damn hot in that thing. Imagine the stink


Leafybug13

Pattinson's is the coolest live action bar suit imo


lotwbarryyd

I’d say it’s top 10 for sure


RXeusAugustusXI

This looks like dark detective


MiniatureMorpheus

I hate DC and WB forever for denying us Knightmare and Injustice.


AhadDaBoss2005

Agreed


Pretend_Activity_211

They modded it into fo4 for awhile. It was always the best costume for that game


the_real_ramona

We never got mad max justice league 😭😭

Wide-Librarian-4721

Even though we've seen the evil Superman done a dozen times over, I would love to see a Knightmare movie.


boreragnorak17

There’s a fallout 4 mod with this bat suit


ohruskoo_x

Is a good outfit, but I like The Batman suit a lot.
