    Any fans of Arkham Asylum by Grant Morrison and Dave McKean here? I thought it was very fresh, original and groundbreaking when it came out.

    Yes, fantastic piece. One of my favourites.

    Batman the Animated Series is getting a board game this summer. It plays one to five players and takes 45 minutes to an hour to beat.

    I wanted to share a silly thing I made. I thought this would go well with the black & gray Batman I made a few years back. Everyone had those stupid Kenner figures when the 1989 movie came out. Believe me, I had them all!

    BatmanTDK.jpg

    Back when I was a kid I took one and made it black and gray, and even kept it all these years! I thought: if they can make blue & gray, blue and dark blue, camouflage, and even GOLD, then why the hell didn't they ever make a black & gray one??

    Today I had the same thought: if they made every ridiculous color variation imaginable, then an NES variant would have fit right in!! NECA made one after all.

    This was just a spare Kenner Bats repainted; the only challenging part was making the cape. The logo was printed and glued into place.

    Just another oddity for my collection! :))

    Get ready for some nostalgia kiddos!!
    This is a display I’ve wanted to put together a while now; what you’re looking at is a mix of figs from when I was actually a little kid and a couple recent eBay purchases to complete the collection!
    If you’re noticing a few missing (for example Tec-Shield & Bruce Wayne) I actually have them as well but ran out of room. Damn large figure stands.... btw if someone has a link to a smaller version I’m all ears. I even meant to include my 2 custom ones but there just wasn’t space.

    Burgess Meredith is my favourite P. N. Guin, a bit left field though from todays actors what about Jack Black?

    For a Lego Batman movie, sure. I think he would just make a live-action Penguin goofy though, and not in a good way. Penguin, as a character, already innately runs the risk of being plain goofy rather than menacing.

    Gary Oldman in prosthetics would make an insane Penguin.

    To be honest Cobblepot is not one of my favourites from Batman's Rogues Gallery, reimagining the character for cinema would probably be the best way to go.

    I agree. He isn't my favorite either. I think the best way to reimagine him for cinema though would be to make him downright dark and menacing. A true crime boss of a grotesquely squat yet imposing stature, perhaps with a broad mouth of animalistic teeth along the lines of DeVito's. Make him dangerous. Make him worthy of being feared.

    I agree they need to avoid making The Penguin a joke character, I would say Phoenix would be great if he were not already lined up to play the Joker.

    Cheers Dalton, Lowell and Talisa Soto were in some great photo's together.

    Hope I’m ok to post this but seems as good a place as any. One of my birthday gifts from last week was this Batmobile from Batman:TAS. For me, one of the best Batmobile designs.

    Gotta love that art deco design. My favourite Batmobile, if only there was a live action Batman film featuring that car. Just look at those lines.

    @MajorDSmythe have you seen this?

    It’s been floating around the net a few years- possibly built from the ground up.
    It sure looks beautiful in the real world

    It really is a thing of beauty. Trying to figure out where to have it on display.

    If I remember correctly, Batman would use his hand grappling hook to make those extreme turns. :))
