Gotta say, I think Zero Year and Jim Gordon's are much more interesting Capullo designed suits.
We'll see. I haven't read past that page yet.

I'll go ahead and quote this since it was the last post of the previous page.

Anyway, it's totally fine. It's Batman. But it's also not particularly different or memorable.

It's pretty thoughtful of Capullo to design a batsuit that can be done entirely by the colorist after the penciler inevitably forgets and just draws the old one.

I think that already sort of happened in the Yanick Paquette's epilogue in the comic.

Bat bulge reaaaaaally accentuated by that belt design. Almost as bad as Supergirl's super-merkin triangle thing.

I for one am glad Batman has a suit for when he's uploaded into the Game Grid. Now he really is prepared for everything.

He's an old hat at jacking in.

I think one of the first computer coloured comics was a some cyberspace Batman OGN.
Also that disgusting Internet issue of Batman Inc.

E: He has a straight Tron suit in Justice League right now.

EE: Found the name of that OGN. Batman: Digital Justice!
Now that's a batsuit.

Those were computer-graphics, not computer-colored. I don't think anyone colors any other way anymore.

The Epic printing of Akira was actually one of, if not the first comic that was computer colored.

I love that the underoos on the outside look was decided to be too childish and the solution is apparently to give superheroes arrows pointing towards their dicks.

Or as noted in Supergirl's case, a near-literal click-and-drag highlight over her vagina.

Same. It looks like someone pre-owned this Batman and highlighted the important parts.

It's to show she's invulnerable, she doesn't need to worry about scraping her knees when she falls over. A strong design choice imo.

Depending on the colorist it was really inconsistent whether those were her bare legs or not.

It's a dad pun that just got way out of hand. Nobody knows what's going on with her boots, she's cryptokneeian.

Ashcans: Jan 2, 2006; Let's do the space-time warp again!

That's definitely weird, particularly because the linework makes it clear that it is supposed to be some sort of stick-on addition to her suit and not just a coloring difference, with how it jags down below the level at the sides. It's like they decided she needed superman's underoos look, and then someone decided that supergirl couldn't wear anything that looked like regular briefs.

# ? Mar 23, 2016 20:57

Aphrodite: Jun 27, 2006

It's how she puts it on. No way can she fit stepping in through the top. The crotch plate opens up, the costume slips down over her head, then she clicks it closed.

Bonus, way easier if she had to pee.

Her shoulders are a very different heights, and her chest emblem is at a really canted angle, but yet her arms are almost both the same length. :psyduck:

You have more fun as a follower. But you make more money as a leader.

I like the chest symbol on the new Batman suit, but the belt would look better if it was either all black or all gold, the piping looks weird.

Her right arm could be foreshortened by bending towards us at the elbow, but her spine is leaning away from the leg her weight is on while her collarbone is slanted the opposite direction. That pose is impossible unless she has scoliosis, but she's an alien so I guess the real problem is that it doesn't convey the emotion the text suggests.
Also imagine how narrow that crotch plate must get in order to see the bit of visible buttcheek.

Just read the issue and the belt IS all gold, that's just how the colorist chose to show it in shadow for most of the shots in the book. It looks better in other scenes, I'm down.

Off topic, but kind of not. Do you have a high res version of your avatar by chance?

Looks like the armor-lines and nehru collar are gone.

So it's basically the old costume (or specifically the slightly darker blue version from the 90s) minus the underpants. Which is what they should've done from the start instead of the ugly Jim Lee interlocking plates poo poo.
