89 vs. 92..Favorite Batsuit

[shadowbat69]

Pretty straight forward I think.  Which of the 2 Keaton suits is your fave? For what reasons?



I love the sleekness and sharpness of the Returns cowl, and the overall look of the armor. However, by far the 89 suit is my all time favorite. It has a badassness to it that just looks like it would strike fear into someone. There is a raw, roughness to the design that it gives it a more believability that someone could actually manufacture it themselves. It also has a more animalistic organic look that gives the illusion of a giant bat.

a tough one cause i love the design of the returns suit, but i think it is too perfect for something that someone has build themselves.  The original has a rougher look, less glossy, more like the skin/fur of a bat.

I think the Batman'89 suit is ok, but the Returns suit is my absolute favorite! A great sculpt, I loved the industrial sleek chest piece as opposed to the abs in the '89 suit, the cowl fit much better with the mouth piece actually fitting and I also prefer the normal yellow oval to the one used in '89 that had two extra legs on the bat.

I like the 89 suit because it?s the first movie suit BUT the returns is far better because it for one looks like armour and the slick design of it makes it look more practical and the returns cowl JUST ROCKS, the lines and definition on it are so much more cleaner and defined.

I am probably gonna get laughed at for this, but what was the reason for the 3 pronged tail on the 89 emblem? I had always thought it was a copyright issue or something.

My favorite is the 89 Batsuit because the 89 movie is my favorite and the batsuit looks more awesome then the Returns batsuit but I do like the Returns batsuit.

Sounds like we need to upload an article on this.lol

I do believe I have something somewhere on this bit about the symbol. When things get launched Ill try to locate it and load it up.

If I had to choose between those 2 I would say "The 89" suit.

But, Adam West's suit was the best Batman...ha ha!

both great but the 92 suit is more streamlined - looks like he could do more in it - and on that note the new suit in dark knight looks far too like a motocross outfit - the black on black emblem is barely a factor anymore which bugs me - the cowl looks like a weird helmet - gets all narrow at the neck so he looks like his head is too big for the rest of his body - and they've made the whole mouth area look weird by shrinking it so much

wonder if gotham city will look like some weird version of thailand again

ehh

I like the way the 89 suit looks more home made, like something Bruce did make in his cave.  Sometimes I feel a sleek suit removes the reality a little.  However, I do love the Returns suit.

As for the new one, I do agree that it is a little motocross looking, but i like the idea that Bale can move a lot more now.  I think that the Begins suit was the most combersome one of the lot - the cowl was too big.
