Details On Upgraded Batsuits for Justice League by filmjunkee
New details on Batman’s upgraded costumes in Justice League have been revealed from costume designer, Michael Wilkinson. The classic Batsuit we saw in Batman v Superman will have some extra armor for Bats to help him out as he’s kicking ass. The suit will be more pronounced in the stomach and chest area, but the real focus came to the gloves.
One new detail is that Zack [Snyder] wanted a little more sense of armor and deflection on his gauntlets when he is shot at, and so I designed these [gloves] that are kind of based on the samurai. We know from Bruce Wayne’s history that he studied martial arts in Japan, so I thought that could be appropriate. But we sort of modernized it with a Wayne Tech aesthetic here. It’s a little more aggressive.
The new tactical suit is something we will all swoon over because there is one element we desperately wanted for the regular suit in BvS.
We loved the way, in the comic books, that Batman’s always drawn with these white flashes for eyes. So we played around with ways of doing that, and realized that they would sort of catch the light, to call to mind that classic age from the comic books
