Behold, the first official picture of the new Batsuit for the Batman vs. Superman sequel! Theoretically, that’s Ben Affleck under the cowl.

Batman hates color

I like it! I like the shorter ears. I like the toughness of the costume. I like that it looks more like his traditional costume than some highly detailed, interconnected armor like from the Dark Knight trilogy. I hope we get to see a clearer picture eventually, but as for this first image, Tweeted by director Zack Snyder, I like it!

For an even better look, check out this Reddit thread where a guy colorized the photo to get a much clearer image!

And what’s that in the background? It’s the Batmobile! Snyder posted this picture yesterday.

Dat ass

I like the look of the Batmobile too.

So yeah, even though I really didn’t like Man of Steel, I’m digging all this Batman stuff.

Now then…give us Robin!
