Batman[a] is a superhero appearing in American comic books published by DC Comics. The character was created by artist Bob Kane and writer Bill Finger, and debuted in the 27th issue of the comic book Detective Comics on March 30, 1939. In the DC Universe continuity, Batman is the alias of Bruce Wayne, a wealthy American playboy, philanthropist, and industrialist who resides in Gotham City. Batman's origin story features him swearing vengeance against criminals after witnessing the murder of his parents Thomas and Martha as a child, a vendetta tempered with the ideal of justice. He trains himself physically and intellectually, crafts a bat-inspired persona, and monitors the Gotham streets at night. Kane, Finger, and other creators accompanied Batman with supporting characters, including his sidekicks Robin and Batgirl; allies Alfred Pennyworth, James Gordon, and Catwoman; and foes such as the Penguin, the Riddler, Two-Face, and his archenemy, the Joker.
Kane conceived Batman in early 1939 to capitalize on the popularity of DC's Superman; although Kane frequently claimed sole creation credit, Finger substantially developed the concept from a generic superhero into something more bat-like. The character received his own spin-off publication, Batman, in 1940. Batman was originally introduced as a ruthless vigilante who frequently killed or maimed criminals, but evolved into a character with a stringent moral code and strong sense of justice. Unlike most superheroes, Batman does not possess any superpowers, instead relying on his intellect, fighting skills, and wealth. The 1960s Batman television series used a camp aesthetic, which continued to be associated with the character for years after the show ended. Various creators worked to return the character to his darker roots in the 1970s and 1980s, culminating with the 1986 miniseries The Dark Knight Returns by Frank Miller.
DC has featured Batman in many comic books, including comics published under its imprints such as Vertigo and Black Label. The longest-running Batman comic, Detective Comics, is the longest-running comic book in the United States. Batman is frequently depicted alongside other DC superheroes, such as Superman and Wonder Woman, as a member of organizations such as the Justice League and the Outsiders. In addition to Bruce Wayne, other characters have taken on the Batman persona on different occasions, such as Jean-Paul Valley / Azrael in the 1993-1994 "Knightfall" story arc; Dick Grayson, the first Robin, from 2009 to 2011; and Jace Fox, son of Wayne's ally Lucius, as of 2021.[4] DC has also published comics featuring alternate versions of Batman, including the incarnation seen in The Dark Knight Returns and its successors, the incarnation from the Flashpoint (2011) event, and numerous interpretations from Elseworlds stories.
One of the most iconic characters in popular culture, Batman has been listed among the greatest comic book superheroes and fictional characters ever created. He is one of the most commercially successful superheroes, and his likeness has been licensed and featured in various media and merchandise sold around the world; this includes toy lines such as Lego Batman and video games like the Batman: Arkham series. Batman has been adapted in live-action and animated incarnations, including the 1960s Batman television series played by Adam West and in film by Michael Keaton in Batman (1989), Batman Returns (1992), and The Flash (2023), Val Kilmer in Batman Forever (1995), George Clooney in Batman and Robin (1997), Christian Bale in The Dark Knight trilogy (2005-2012), Ben Affleck in the DC Extended Universe (2016-present), and Robert Pattinson in The Batman (2022). Kevin Conroy, Diedrich Bader, Jensen Ackles, Troy Baker, and Will Arnett, among others, have provided the character's voice.

The suit from the Flash with the oxygen tank isn't an aquatic suit, it's a wingsuit designed for flight according to official merchandise (also note the wings). It definitely retains that art-deco vibe from the Burton films which I really like

The Batman returns suit is my personal favourite batsuit. It just has the aesthetic I want, the yellow oval, simplistic armour plating, the coolest looking cowl and a cape that drapes nicely over the suit. If the suit was to come back, I’d segment an areas on the suit and put Kevlar in between to allow for more movement. As for the cowl, I like to look at it as a helmet for protection as well as an intimidation factor. The suit just does it for me.

[@chadarcher13]

Returns is my fave also, best cowl yet, has yet to be topped imo and I love how its the closest to having he cape fully envelop his body as well, like in the animated series

The only thing I don't like about the Batman Returns suit is the neck portion of the cowl. Those scales are the end of the cowl remind me of Kermit the frog's gills. However I love the simplicity of the body armor, the black and grey color scheme, and the ears are my favorite. I would love to see a version of the Returns cowl using the same technology as the BVS cowl so there's more flexibility for the actor.

I think a high placement for the West Batsuit is entirely valid. Every suit should be viewed within its own context, and 60s Batman wholeheartedly embraced the cartoony side of the character, with the visual style of a live action comic book. Within that context, the suit is a 1:1 translation of Batman's comic book appearance, and the fact that it looks more than a bit silly is all part of the self-aware comedic charm of Adam West's Gotham City.

[@thestarkknightreturns]

He was my first live action Batman suit but I never liked it. I always thought it was terrible, even as a kid. To each their own but it did not do Batman any favors for decades.

[@jonathancandelario9976]

Honestly I never realized the Clooney one was a repaint aside from new gauntlets. That and the fact that the Birds of Prey show used the Batgirl suit but with Gold accents goes to show the power of a repaint

[@alexzemaitis1207]

Fun Fact: The Sonar Batsuit was eventually repainted black and was used for screen testing for Batman Begins

[@ganumon1984]

The Battinson Suit is personally my favorite Movie Batsuit! It’s more agile, the cowl is fascinating, and I also like the idea that Bruce Wayne uses different materials to make the suit instead of using military armor. A few minor updates the Battinson Suit needs is to make the suit 90% more agile so Batman can use more of his martial arts while fighting, making the cape and cowl darker blue and the utility belt yellow while they still blend in with the grounded environment, and adding batarangs to Batman’s list of gadgets because he uses those in the comics. Outside of Movie Batman, I also love the Arkham City and Arkham Knight Batsuit from the Arkham games. For a standard Batsuit from the comics, I even love the Definitive Black and Grey Batsuit with the black trunks and the Blue and Grey Batsuit by Neal Adams and the Batman: Hush Comic.

Every suit made for Keaton, whether the 89 or 92 suit back then or the new ones for The Flash that have been perfectly stylized to fit that Burton-verse aesthetic, they’re all just such a beautiful reminder of how much that particular Batman meant to me as a kid growing up in the early 90’s. Comparatively, when screen photos of Pattinson’s suit were leaked I was mortified: the lace up boots, laces running down the pant legs, the thing holster… I could’ve have been more pleasantly surprised.

[@incognitofool6516]

The extra legs on the 89 suit was because of some strange rights issues going on with the emblem at the time of the suits creation. But the time post production had started, the issues were settled. Hence the two extra legs not being on the poster

[@roc5291]

Pattinson’s suite is my favorite as well. Love how his jaw is not encased in the cowl. How his mask is very skull like. I believe Matthew Reeves even said in an interview that the boots he wears are Austrian military boots. Just love the idea of his suit as well. You can tell he started off as a very buff, ultimate protection suit and then evolved it so he could be more flexible, as he has now a year under his belt by the time we start the film in his second year as Batman. The little things that you don’t see often in the film like him not immediately wiping away his black eye paint from around his eyes when he takes his mask off or the boxing tape around his hands when he has his gloves off, all these little details just made it ideal for me. Can’t wait to see how it evolves in film 2.

The 2 extra points on the bat-symbol on Keaton's suit are from Alan Moore's The Killing Joke. The symbol in that comic has the two extra points by the tail tip

[@hOtneO]

The Batman suit worn by Robert Pattison was the Tom Ford of the movie Batman suits. It wasn't this stiff rubber coffin that Keaton had, it wasn't this visually busy jigsaw that Bale had, it had a balanced between form and function. While Kilmer and Clooney had their Batsuits tailored off toy lines and made it so hot for the actor to film in, it was too busy both the nipples and the abs, and the two tone highlights of the cod piece of the ice suits. Where they got it right was Batman Begins with the panther neck and the all black suit, it was iconic to see Batman sitting from on high and the wind blowing his parachute like cape with a velvety texture as designed by Lindy Hemming in the making of documentary. Then Affleck had probably the best Batman suit at the time, gone are the wannabe Iron-man rubber suits and back to basics fabric tights that was clearly borrowed from Frank Miller's The Dark Knight Returns. They got it right in how this is a brawler suit, this is a Batman that can really bring the pain, as seen in that amazingly perfect fight choreography in the warehouse that was inspired by the Rocksteady's Arkham video games. And it went downhill from there where the suit got unnecessary flairs with buckles and goggles. But Robert Pattison looked like Batman so much in his suit just the silhouette of him is perfect. He has a suit that is padded in the front to take on a shower of bullets, his cowl shows off his strong jawline, he's able to act well with his eyes, and he has finally a belt that does away with the yellow which was long overdue just like the strongman underwear from the comics. And I know the studios can't help themselves with each new movie to change the costume to sell new toys and merchandise, but I hope that Matt Reeves is able to keep the suit the same. It is as good as it gets. The suit is like how a special ops team would wear, quiet and flexible, and in the comics Bruce Wayne is supposed to have a collection of scars and bruises anyways. What we see in The Batman is a fresh start and a break from the Keaton DNA of stiff unrealistic rubber suits and the padded Shazam suits of Ben Affleck.

[@wayneigoe6722]

The thing about the blades on the Keaton "Knightmare" suit is they're totally impractical... Like if you're gonna use knee blades, you'd want the pointy bits pointing UP, not down. It kinda becomes useless when the blades point down, because the pointy parts are never gonna connect with anything. Also, fun fact: the 89 suit used a pair of jordans spray painted black for the boots of it. 37:19 Correction: due to the cameras of the time, the cape and cowl aren't actually blue, they're purple because the cameras couldn't capture blue properly due to Technicolor technology and TV limitations of the time.

The nightmare looking suit is actually an artic climbing suit. Makes you think Keaton fought Mr. Freeze maybe? My favorites are the burton suit. 89 being the top for me. I love most of these Flash suits and think the new one is great. Seeing the flash tomorrow for Keaton!

100% agree on the Robert Patterson suit. Hands down the best live action Batman we got.

[@davidjenkins2773]

The Gotham tv show bat suit is the way it is because of WB's last second involvement to restrict the costume designers of this suit to prevent clashing designs with the current media of Batman. The original design of the bat suit was actually more resembling the ones in the Batman arkham asylum.

[@S.A.N.503]

I couldn't agree more about The Batman suit. It's BY FAR my favorite live action suit. the BvS suit would be my second favorite, and the Batman Returns suit is my third favorite. Thos are the holy trinity of Batman live action suits. Dope video, bro.

[@GooseStar]

I was actually excited when I got the noti for this

[@MelchVagquest]

I can agree with much that you said about the Dark Knight suit. I feel like it was meant to always be in motion because I didn't notice anything negative about it until I saw him standing still or when I selected it in the Arkham games. Batman Begins suit definitely looks more like Batman. It's interesting that Christian Bale wore each of his Batsuits in 1 1/2 movies

[@gianbasye8173]

My Favorite is Michael Keaton as Bruce Wayne/ Batman suit Batman 1989 and Batman return 1992 with yellow Belts Music by Danny Elfman theme song Batman

[@joaquinwaters1810]

Honestly I wish for Affleck’s final scene in The Flash they would have gone as classic as possible. Simple, trimmed down, full gray and blue coloring.

[@eduardofranco8528]

That's the first video of you I've ever watched, didn't know if I was going to subscribe or not, but then you brought up The Weekly Planet, and sold me lol loved the content

[@user-iz7km4zl5k]

My favorite Batman costumes are the second version of Christian Bale's costume from The Dark Knight, Affleck's costume from Batman v Superman, and both of Keaton's costumes from the 1989 and 1992 films.

[@-Anonymous-.]

1. Begins 2. 1989 or Returns 3. TDK 4. Pattinson 5. BVS

[@Comkill117]

Personally, Batman Returns is the top of the pile. It’s got a decent sense of being a little practical looking, but it’s just so imposing and larger than life. It fit how he fought in those movies really well too as the more limited movement he had informed the character. It was campy, theatrical like you said, and most of all it was just badass.

[@mr.moviemafia]

I don’t personally dislike the “motor-cross” suit, but I get the critiques. It’s bulky, but I actually like the Blue/Grey color scheme enough to bump it up a few rankings.

[@Jahsizzl9]

Yea the blue and grey is awesome

[@TJUC123]

Joel Schumacher apologized about Batman and Robin ALL THE TIME. 😂

[@-WolfMan-]

The Ben Affleck Suits are By Far the BEST (IMO) It's literally how BatMan SHOULD look after Years of Battling Tough Street Thugs and Super Powered Villians - The suits are Simple - No weird bullshit - and the Grey & Black Hulking Look is absolutely Perfect ... and Plus He can actually Turn His Head in this suit!

[@__M7MD]

Agree but the bvs suit would still be number 2 for me I get it looks more like Batman But the 1989 suit is really unmatched for me that black and gold colour scheme with that yellow and black logo is too slick So for me it’s 1 1989 suit 2 bvs suit

[@-WolfMan-]

@mhmd4745 Yeah I agree the Tim Burton suit was a Game Changer - in fact, I Dare say it set the Precedent for all SuperHero Suits that ever followed! But now ... just imagine if the Keaton suit was Bulked up like the Affleck Look!! Now THAT'S ... BATMAN !!

[@__M7MD]

@@-WolfMan- Kind of like playing Batman Arkham knight and using the 1989 suit

[@jacob2971]

I honestly love the grey and blue batfleck suit lol. My fave of his with the tactical one. Id say those two, Keaton from flash and Pattinson's are my faves. I WANT THE DCU'S BATMAN TO HAVE GREY AND BLUE TOO !!

[@Andre-nn3tu]

Robert Pattinson’s suit goes hard af. I just wish his symbol was made from the gun that killed his parents

[@Thespeedrap]

It was a gun shaped like which was cool but it's not like the yellow black version I still dig that Batman logo still feels like the Batman.

[@ronaldrodriguez14]

My favorites 3 batsuits are: 1. The Arkham Origins suit 2. The 89 Batman suit 3. The The Batman suit.

[@HBProductions58]

The battle suit from Keaton in flash feels like what he would wear to fight Christopher Reeves’s Superman.

[@elwoodjacobs4353]

My favorite for stylization is the Returns suit (my only complaint is the lack of '89 logo, _love_ that one), & my favorite for realism is Battinson's

[@onearmouredboipictures8653]

That Knightmare Keaton suit is actually his arctic suit.

[@DarthArachnious]

Clooney's Blue Suit has the best sculpted Bat Symbol. The Panther Suit has the best Cowl. Otherwise, the original Keaton Suit is my favorite because of its matte finish. Pattinson wins for Utility Belt because it actually has pouches.

[@hOtneO]

When you watch the final action in the third act of The Batman, where he fights off the Riddler's followers, now imagine other Batman actors doing that scene with the suit that they got in their career: Keaton couldn't do that- his suit is too constrictive, so too Kilmer and Clooney. Affleck and West could do that scene sure, but get shredded by shotgun. Pattison's got the right suit where it has just enough armor protection for him and the flexibility for him to do the fight scenes.

[@TerryTrowbridge]

Love the Nightmare suit. It's like the first on-screen Elseworlds Batman we've ever got.

[@joemax4]

I know he’s gone but hoping McFarlane give us the BvS and JL suits. With his sculpting they’d knock the texturing out of the park.

[@killercaritas9442]

The Batman begins suit is underrated, but my favorite is Batman returns.

[@naszirboyd9950]

The Battinson suit. I will always remember going to the theater with my step dad and my brother to go see the film the fights cinema photography to the Batmobile roaring the in our theater it was absolutely a blast. Can’t want for The Batman 2 it so much more detective focused and dark too.

[@ericrose7354]

Personally my my favorite is the 1989 batman suit.

[@TheDrexLord]

I think the perfect 89-97 suit is the batman 89 suit in Arkam knight. It's clearly what they wanted to make but the equipment they had to make it just wasn't their yet, the only issue with it the emblem

[@Critter1267]

I respect your opinion but the sonar suit over the dark knight suit is one of the wildest tales I’ve ever heard.

[@Hum0ng0us]

For me, the BatMike Suits are the best in reverse order, though I have a complete 89. Keaton is just Batman. He's captured the essence of the character best for me.

[@tigermacc8850]

I like Robertson suit. Until you go below the Belt. Thr BVS and Batman Returns are my favorites

[@tracyschneider4110]

# 7 looks like a version of the Thomas Wayne batsuit from Flashpoint Paradox. Admittedly I’m still hoping & waiting for live Batman Beyond. My fav to date is The Batman 2022 batsuit. 2nd is the gray & black batsuit v1 in Batman v Superman. 3rd would be gray & black batsuit v2 in Zack Snyder Justice League.

[@godzillash9323]

Is it just me or does the cape on Keaton's nightmare suit look like a repurposeed trenchcoat? (There seems to be a sleeve over the arm of the batsuit)

[@godzilla5611]

Really good video, really unpredictable.

[@randybaumery5090]

The 1989 Batsuit will forever be my favorite.

[@sagardeepghoshmondal232]

Batman suits...bvs, tactical, pattinson these 3 are phenomenal

[@PorterAston]

I got to see the flash early and the suit seems a bit stronger than in the 89 and 92 movies

[@b3nni3_]

My favorite suit ever is the one in the flash movie
