Olivier Coipel is best known for working on titles like The Amazing Spider-Man, Thor, and Siege but he's now making the leap to DC Comics as the cover artist for Tom King's Batman. It remains to be seen when and if he'll start doing interiors for the company but it would be incredible to see him working on titles like this one and Justice League as it would be such a departure from his previous Marvel work. 

Coipel's first cover for the series can be seen below and it paints a very impressive picture of the Dark Knight looming over Gotham City. This is sure to be the first of many to come and not a bad start at all. 

Batman is perhaps DC's biggest (and best with King writing) titles so this is a good start for Coipel and it will be fun to see just how much he mixes things up with the Caped Crusader moving forward now. 

What do you guys think of the cover? As always, be sure to let us know your thoughts down below.

In all seriousness though, dope art im liking the watercolor vibe. Never cared for the long ears on the suit though I always preferred the Frank Miller/Greg Capullo styled cowls

@Ha1frican - Copiel's seem more mid / average length to me.
The long ears are my favorite. More demonic and intimidating.

@Elayem - Everytime I see the long ears I think

1: How does he walk underneath anything
2: How doe they not constantly break off
and 3: What [frick]ing Bat has ears like that lol

@Ha1frican - 1. Lol good point. He ducks a little I guess.
2. They could be metal lined.
3. Very true, but then again Batman doesnt really look anything like a bat. What Bats are gray and blue? Or gray and black? They're all brown
