I love the anti-chafing material. Also, that's not very thick armor! Even if it is titanium.

CNC! Easy as 1️⃣2️⃣3️⃣!
The best part of using Titanium as an armor when dealing with explosives and things that catch fire is just how big a deal it is when Titanium ignites.

Edit: Actual explosion from when the fire gets to the Titanium scrap is at 3:30 in the video linked.

Included in the Batman RIP graphic novel. It’s got a lot of stuff like this.

Marvel did actually did books breaking down every piece of superhero gear.

Not sure if Batman's look-in-the-camera face in the middle panel is more Kermit the Frog or Jim Halpert.

What the hell is an arrow arrow? An arrow that shoots arrows? That’s redundant.

I think a couple of those were left out, but he definitely referenced those exact pictures for each of the arrowheads. That was a great issue.

edit: I'm still a little confused about what that thing is above the boomerang arrow.

It shoots a bola which is two balls connected by wire. The balls wrap the wire around the target to tie it up. Catwoman has them in the Arkham games.

That little thing is part of the boomerang arrow. He fires it like a normal arrow and then that thing fires the real arrow back.

An arrow that can turn 90° to hit enemies behind cover. I call it the Perpendicul-Arrow.

I'm pretty sure all these schematic drawings were the work of Eliot Brown. My favorite is always going to be this one:



I admire his manful attempt at justifying how Wolverine can bend his wrists despite the claws.

Ah yes. What kids nowadays don't realise was when Wolverine was introduced it was a big reveal that the claws were a part of him and not just a feature of his costume.

And later in the 90's it was another big reveal that his claws were gone and not just a result of the Weapon X project.
One of my favourite parts of Barry Windsor-Smyth's version of his origin is how he was ambiguous about if the claws were bone or as a result of the adamantium bonding process.

I'm willing to accept men who can push the earth out of orbit. I'm willing to accept women with magical ropes that forcibly extract the truth from others. I'm even willing to accept that "I'm the goddamn Batman" bit.

But the idea that anybody, even a cat-themed supervillainness, can resist the adorable machinations of a small puppy is some truly unbelievable bullshit.

It's a boomerang arrow, because boomerangs.

I was trying to find that exact panel used earlier but kept getting photos of the actor who played the DC villain Boomerang on the CW tv show Arrow.
