COMICS: Batman's New Costume Revealed!
Writer Grant Morrison shares his thoughts on some of the live action adaptations of Batman's costume and reveals the Caped Crusader's new comic book look which features the return of the classic yellow symbol...
When Bruce Wayne returns from being trapped in the past this fall, the Caped Crusader will be brought back into the spotlight by writer Grant Morrison. In Batman, Inc. we'll see the "franchising" of the Dark Knight who will train and command a team of heroes including Dick Grayson, Knight and Squire, El Gaucho and eight others who'll then also wear his colours.
The LA Times quizzed Morrison about the upcoming series (all of which you can find by clicking the link at the bottom of the article) but perhaps most interesting was the two exclusive pieces of art they had, including the one above, which feature the return of the classic yellow symbol on the costume.
Here's what Grant Morrison had to say about Bruce Wayne's new costume as well as what he thinks of some of the live action interpretations: "All the costumes have been in constant change...You look at the difference between the costume tights that Adam West wore and the gay disco armor that was in "Batman Forever" compared to the modern, militaristic thing that Christopher Nolan does. They are all completely different but they are all instantly recognizable as Batman."
