Okay so there wasn't any major Batman'Superman related announcements made on the Man Of Steel live event (although director Zack Snyder did share some interesting thoughts on the first film) but here is what we did get: Snyder MAY have confirmed that Lex Luthor will indeed feature in the next movie when he and Kevin Smith were discussing Kal El's extra terrestrial origins. "Lex loves calling him an alien", he says with a grin. Now he might be referring to the character in general...guess it depends on how you want to take it. Much more interesting is a comment from the director when quizzed by Kevin Smith as to the relationship between Batman and Superman that we'll see in the movie. “They’re friends and then they fight... there will be some physical conflicts”, he confirms. Sounds like Bats is gonna need to break out those Kryptonite gloves! So not TOO much, but something at least. We also got the below artwork, which are not official concept designs, but were commissioned by Snyder for the We Can Be Heroes charity organization under the "Batman VS. Superman" title-- but it's unlikely that these images with influence the movie. You can bid on the art HERE.
