![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() DC Direct released a more comic accurate New 52 version of Batman in their Justice League line, but Mattel's trumps it on articulation and visual flash. ![]() The incised armor lines throughout the figure and raised bat insignia on the figure's chest really pop due to the figure's glossy, metallic deco, updated with a slimmer modern utility belt. It's not really anything new, Batman having received a similar overhaul for the 1989 motion picture, Batman, in which actor Michael Keaton donned an all-black outfit, ushering in a new era in modern superhero styling. While I somewhat prefer the batsuit with traditional shorts/trunks, the more armored, updated renderings of New 52 Dark Knight has it's own appeal. I have no explanation as to why I've not read any of the much lauded New 52 Batman title by author Scott Snyder and artist Greg Capullo, but I did enjoy Jim Lee's rendition in some of the earlier New 52 Justice League issues.
