Thanks to the lovely Lexi for submitting this gem. She found this in Crumbs, a bakery in Manhattan. The sad thing is, Bruce Wayne was probably about this age the last time he was able to enjoy a cupcake. After his parents died he had to swear off the junk food in order to acheive peak physical condition.

Superman Sucks
(This is kind of getting around, I think. Not sure who does it but I've seen a few pictures and I have to agree. )
There is a new Superman movie coming out... at first I was kind of excited because the last one was garbage and they seemed to have a better grip on where to take the story this time around. Then they start casting Lois Lane and other known characters and it occurs to me that this movie will suck too, because you cant teach an old dog new tricks...especially if you can't even move past Lois Lane! Batman is awesome for not having a real consistant love interest. Who needs 150,000 interpretations of Vicki Vale? Superman is old ass news. The only thing they could do to revitalize it is to adapt the Death of Superman story or at LEAST move past the same old fucking characters. "Oooh who is gonna play Perry White??!" Who cares...
Homemade Costume
I am fascinated by reimagined Batman costumes.
This guy made a homemade costume as least partially inspired by the Gotham by Gaslight (First Elseworlds) book. I think anyway. Despite his douchey-ass expression this guy did a pretty cool job redesigning the costume.
This image made me laugh as a kid, despite being slightly offended that Mad magazine would dare fuck with Batman. I have drawn hundreds of doodles of Batman with a Superman shield in the years since seeing this.

Eel sauce? Might as well spray it with a skunk. I would never eat this atrocious dish, despite the very appealing nomanclature. I believe this would have the opposite effect on Oswald Cobblepot, who would no doubt greedily indulge in the 'Batman' despite personal reservations over the name.

Cop Killer
So cops were calling for a boycott of Batman Returns and it made for a sick headline. Apparently they were protesting the Bodycount song "Cop Killer" which was put out by Warner Brothers. I picture a similar headline circulating in the Nolan-Verse Gotham City as we speak.

1989 Costume Logo
I like what they did with the Batman logo back in '89 (although it was probably designed in 87 or something). Normally this type of tampering would not be cool, but I like those little feet. I also think the heavy black circle is cool too. Do you think they should have a traditional logo for the costume in the new Batman movie? I like the yellow and I think strategically it can work for Batman. When surrounded by the cape he can remain in the shadows, then announcing his appearance by exposing the yellow emblem. This makes it seem like he just appeared there. Anyway..
Batman with Lightsaber VS. Shark
There is an interesting story behind this painting, which has been rather popular on the internet lately.
Read a funny interview with the kid who inspired it

The painting was done by artist Andrew Zubko and has become an internet sensation.
Batshitz
I made a lovely little video you should watch. Its called Batshitz
Gay Batman
Batman has been the brunt of gay jokes and innuendos for years. The presence of a Robin definitely contributed. Interesting you never hear about a Gay Superman.
Fatman Forever
There is something very comically appealing about a fat Batman. You don't see a lot of fat Superman images, but lots of fat Batmen. It may be a result of the fact that 'Batman' sounds like 'Fatman' or it may just be that its funny to think of Bruce Wayne letting himself go after all that hard work. Adam West certainly contributed. Anyway I can guarantee you will see a lot of fat Batmen on this site.
