BATMAN: A Closer Look at the Gotham Map from the Viral Campaign

For you CBM sleuths who need a closer look at that map recently sent to us for the Batman TDKR viral campaign, I unravelled it from the mail tube and took a pic for you to go over with a magnifying glass. Go to it! And let us know what it means.

As you know, select fansites recieved a Dark Knight Rises T-shirt in the mail today, and the tube which it came in had a map on it with mysterious strategery marked upon it. This is what it looks like when flattened.

Click on the pic to enlarge it even more.



Here was the tee we recieved as well. My son will be very popular at school tomorrow. :)

I bet even Loki would cringed at the sight of Bane.

It looks like Bane is attempting to isolate Gotham from all of the surrounding area. Bane is going to cause havoc in the city and trap everyone inside. He's calling Batman out with a challenge only he can answer

Similar plan to the one carried out in Batman Begins,in that the main objective was to cut Gotham off from all outside help.

I see the football stadium is the first target,the rail system the second,looks like police precincts the third,the fourth is probably the financial district,and the last is City Hall itself. Using the Cobble Hill section of town as an entry point[nice nod to the Penguin]and possible escape route as well...

I love how the football stadium aka HEINZ FIELD is circled towards the bottom.

nope just says "I'm ready", probably still referring to operation early bird.

If you haven't scanned that barcode in the lower right with a smartphone by now, may the league of shadows descend upon your face

They've got 3 rally points at strike zone 5. Something will go down on the waterfront.

Hat would be a welcomed addition to my room of maps of fictional diabolical plans.

the map is clearly a design to give gotham city a hat...
bane is secretly being controlled by jervis tetch to send gotham further down the rabbit hole... with multiple earthquakes... and a hookah mask

I love how Bane is reminiscent of the greatest villain of all time.

Its offtropic But Nolan should do Punisher, that would turn out great.

@Tajin88 A Nolan Pubisher and/or DareDevil would be sweet.
NeoBaggins
NeoBaggins - 12/16/2011, 3:30 AM
Punisher.

TurboAwesome - 12/16/2011, 3:35 AM
seriously just for my peace of mind. That barcode has to lead somewhere. That kind of detail isn't necessary or normal. I'd try from my computer, but there's a damn wrinkle through the center

the map shows that they're closing every entrance into gotham and it has a circle over gotham stadium as a attack point

Wow, festung Gotham..
Numbers 1 through five I guess indicate where Bane will attack and in what order. He hits the stadium during the football game first, then he attacks the Narrows which is where Arkham is in the movies.

LOOKS LIKE BANE CUTS "DOWNTOWN" OFF FROM THE REST OF GOTHAM. ALSO THE MAP FROM TDK THE FOOTBALL STADIUM WAS NOT IN THE LOCATION IT IS IN TDK IT WAS IN "UPTOWN" WHICH IS THE MOST NORTHERN ISLAND. VERY INTERESTING.
