10 Best Batman Costumes Of All Time

4. Matches Malone

Batman Inc Batsuit
DC Comics

A Batsuit, but not technically a bat suit. To go the places where neither Batman nor Bruce Wayne could reach, the Dark Knight concocted (or co-opted) his Matches Malone identity - a swaggering, matchstick-chewing hoodlum with a Noo Jersey accent, sunglasses and 50s gangster moustache.

After Malone's death (depending on which Earth continuity you happen to be reading), Batman would break out the make-up kit and disguise himself as the man, going deep undercover in Gotham's underworld.

The Matches Malone identity may not be Batman's most visually exciting Batsuit, but it is a useful one, and almost certainly his most impressive.
