I don't read the comics. Is it not supposed to be a black patch roughly sewn over the actual logo? Cuz that would be kinda cool.

u/ThanksContent28 28d ago edited 28d ago
It’s part of a new upcoming series where the writers were supposedly told “do what you want, as long as it bad ass.”
This is an elseworld Batman, who instead of being rich, is a common civil engineer (but super talented as engineering). He is large and bulky, and doesn’t have Alfred as his butler. His cape is made with various wires and hooks so that it can be used as different tools. The chest piece is the head of a battle axe. Originally the logo was just a big block, but editors convinced them to add the spikes. Bruce also had a blonde, shaved, crew cut, but that’s changed now to a longer, darker cut.

Honestly that’s kinda sick tbh. It’s goofy but what the hell.

u/Ok_Try_1665 28d ago
I have the same opinion honestly, leans more on goofiness like this while maintaining the badassness. The brick bat symbol wasn't too bad honestly, and this is an else world story. It's not canon breaking

u/Ind1go_Owl 28d ago
I agree. Goofy shit like this is fun. People just like to be upset.

Creative and alternate takes on heroes/villains should always be welcomed. otherwise things get stale

"HOW COULD THEY RUIN OUR ICONIC CHARACTER?" cried the fans, who have no understanding of how the medium of comics work.
And yes, I realize this goes way back before the cinematic golden age of superheros. But like, for real, the best part about comic characters is the myriad of takes that each one is partial to. Its the entire reason multiverse shit exists in the first place!
Batman, in particular, has some of THE best explorations of what's possible with the simple concept of his persona. Damned fuckin SLAPS and no one can change my mind

u/gosh-darntit 28d ago
what's it called?

u/ThanksContent28 28d ago
A crew cut, but that’s not important. This upcoming series is the “absolute” series.

He doesn't have a butler, so he made it himself. He's not good at cutting out the bat shape.

Honestly. Remove the bottom side parts so the black bat is just big spike going down and it would look cool. Like Godfather ice-cream cone poster.

How about something like this?
With the long spikes and slightly curved lines. . would fit with his new cape, logo and the long earsI have a feeling that a pro could make it work.

It's an atrocious logo. The only reason it works even a little is because we already have an idea what the original looks like. In universe people would literally just think it's a badly drawn rectangle.

u/Schmush_Schroom 28d ago
The bat logo looks more like a brick wrapped in barb wire to me. Man really letting himself go with this one
41
u/CorvusGriseo 28d ago
Apparently it's supposed to be a metal plate that Bats can take off his chest and use as a gigantic axe. Still an odd design, tho lol

u/Schmush_Schroom 28d ago
No fucking way really?? A ninja sneaky brawler type hero using a giant axe of all thing. This truly is one of the design of all time.
49
u/CorvusGriseo 28d ago
Absolute Batman seems to be less of a ninja and more of a tank. Dude's a 2m tall construction worker with thighs the size of logs, his batcape has spikes that lets him hit people in the face/pull them away or walk over them, he has a gigantic axe. He seems to be less "I'll sneak from behind to choke him" and more "I'll punch him so hard his eyes will pop out"
It's a fun concept for an elseworld Batman, especially with the whole blue collar thing

So they took all of the things that is batman out and then have some random buff guy put on the costume and voila, I'm batman. Awesome, from Man Ham Aslume to Brick Man Abs.
Lmao Imma go insane.

u/CorvusGriseo 28d ago
I mean, the comic still isn't out. All we know is that this Bruce is going to be working on a budget and seems to be tankier, it's a fun idea with potential. Reminds me a bit of the russian Batman in Superman Red Son. Is an elseworld, dude, let's see how it plays out lol. The new Ultimate Spider-man isn't a genius nor a teenager, he isn't doing his own gadgets, yet he's pretty fun to read because it's still good old Peter/Spidey

Fair, I will check this out if the review is good then. So far everything I know about this batman are from you so I really don't have any opinion except for the weird logo design

u/CorvusGriseo 28d ago
Yeah, the logo looks weird, I'm not a fan either, but it being an axe makes me like it a bit more. I like the concept of this Batman, now I'm kinda hoping it has a good enough execution

u/KingCreb956 28d ago
I mean, just look at new new batman's legs. Man has fucking tree trunks attached to his torso. Man could probably go 0-60 in 3 seconds with hams like those! When he drops down from the rooftops the concrete cracks with his landing, I don't he's sneaking anywhere

I mean… he does seem a bit less sneaky in this iteration. Plus, normal Batman has used a battle axe, albeit a significantly smaller one. Once.
