With the mixed reviews Justice League received coupled with the film having two very different directors working on it, there has been a lot of discussion as to who was responsible for what for every aspect of the film. From scenes and characters that didn't make the final cut, to the overall direction of the film, there is a lot to talk about.

Of course, one aspect not exempt from this is costume design.

Artist Jerad S. Marantz took to Instagram to reveal a piece of concept art showing an alternate version of Batman's tactical suit. This suit features a weaving of kevlar mesh and armor plating, an exoskeleton to give him an advantage over the Parademons, and a cowl that is very reminiscent of The Watchmen's Night Owl. If you look closer at the cowl, you'll notice that it has collar bone reinforcements, as well as what looks like throat protection / voice modulation, to create Ben Affleck's Bat-voice.

Peep it out below.

 

#batman #tactical #conceptart for #justiceleague Always an honor to work on a bat suit. I had an incredible time working on the concept art for costume designer @michaelwilkinson in London with the amazing crew at #warnerbros #leavesdenstudios The artists on this show really brought it! Thanks to @brookedibbs @hodge1001 and Mark Trunk for being so friendly! I think I was in the Uk for a couple of months after working with the the great LA team: @constantinesekeris @pboutte @ianjoynerart @keltoncram Special thanks to Stephanie Porter the assistant costume designer that balanced her incredibly challenging job with babysitting me and making sure I didn’t get lost riding the tubes 😊 #dccomics #dccinematicuniverse #wonderwoman #cyborg #aquaman #theflash #steppenwolf #parademons #kirby #zbrush #costume #zbrushsculpt #keyshot

Looks pretty close to the final design but just a bit less bulky looking which I prefer. The scenes where Bruce is wearing the suit without the cowl makes him look ridiculously bulky.

In fact, both batsuits in the film looked worse that the BvS suit which I thought was almost perfect.

I don't know what it was but the cowl on both of the new suits just didn't look right. I think it was the ears sloping backwards. It just looked wrong.

It's got an Arkham Origins vibe that I dig. Shades might be cool in some sort of "alternate reality" version of Batman, but they have no business being on this version of Batman.

Finally saw JL the other day, I'm so disappointed in what a disaster it was.

Some concept art doesn't translate well on screen sometimes, Ben looked like the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man towards the final battle, or maybe that was Ben's weight gain

Also, the goggles were pointless. He wore them once when he was in the batmobile which kinda made no sense.

If the reason for them is to protect his eyes then why would he wear them when he's sitting in the batmobile behind a windscreen but then keep them up when he's out in the open fighting parademons?

@bcom - agreed. All i can think is that Snyder really really loves his goggles. Looked great in BvS but here? Ehhh

Aside from the goggles, Ben Affleck's face and the weird wrinkles on the cowl, this look is perfection

The film was a mess but overall I left the cinema with a smile, something I didn't do after BvS. I put that down to the characterisations and interactions of the league being a lot better than Batman and Superman in BvS.... and also the film lacking any classic Synder divisive moments made it easier to switch my brain off and just fanboy out.

You know I am disappointed that they are making "The Batman" movie, I was really hoping for it to be named "Batman The Detective".
