I like it, but I don't really think the hard black against bright yellow shield was a great look for Batman. It looked good enough in Burton's movies, but RARELY has any approximation of t been attempted in the comics, because it just does not look good in ink.

At the time, the Tim Burton films were considered a
yuge improvement over the '60s stupidity, and they were. "Now this is a bat I can dig", said the casual fans. But when the Nolan films came along, it was Burton's work which was considered camp. "All right, NOW we're cooking with gas", said the comic book fans. But after
Batman vs Superman and that bloody suit that DOES NOT FIT, I find trouble believing they're "taking it to the next level" — it's a step back, actually.

I'm a major fan of black-on-black ER WAIT THAT CAME OUT WRONG I'm still talking about visual design, not porn.
White Light/White Heat, the black vinyl edition of
Blackstar, that's where it's at!
Back to
BvS, the other major fuckup there is Superman's whole kamikaze sequence. How in all that is F could Kal-El fly holding a Kryptonite-pointed spear? And why didn't he pass it to Gal Gadot so
she could stab Doomsday in the dick?
