This themepark ride is called “Batman” so how scary could it be?
I wondered whether it might be scary running across the rooftops of Gotham city, jumping from gargoyle to gargoyle only to throw yourself through a skylight and into the combat below. Having watched this computer rendered animation of what the roller-coaster “Batman” will be like I’m sure the Gotham rooftops have met their match. This […]

Here I was worrying that Gotham would roll out on an American cable network and may never get any further than that. Warner Bros’s worldwide television department have announced a deal with Netflix that will take the series across the sea. From 2015, each season of the series will be made available to Netflix members […]

This is what Tetsuya Nomura did to the Dark Knight. Nomura’s best known for Kingdom Hearts but he’s a character design on Final Fantasy too. This remake is kind of offical to. That’s not to say that Batman will now star tto look like this but that the redesign is part of the Square Enix’s […]
Gotham City villains Disney character style
These Disney characters meet Gotham baddies are the work of Brazilian artist Rick Celis. Fans should also check out his Facebook page for various art projects and I found it an easier browse than his Deviant Art page.

This is a thing: Batmetal
It’s Batman meets Metal. In particular, this is ArhyBES’s take of Dethklok’s Face Fisted. Their “new” band is called Children of Batman and this remake is called Batface. You might not want to listen to this at work because, well, metal. And swearing. I like the arrangement of Red Hood, Robin and then Nightwing across […]
