10 Best Batman Costumes Of All Time
2. Tim Burton Batman
Bruce Wayne's a short-arse, his muscles are made out of rubber, the chest emblem looks weird and Batman can't even move his head, let alone fight. On paper, the Batsuit of Tim Burton's Batman (and its sequel, Batman Returns) shouldn't work.
And yet, for comic book fans of a certain age, Michael Keaton's is the definitive Batsuit. An all-black number save for the belt and chest, this is the coolest live-action Batsuit ever committed to screen - instantly iconic and, as Batman swoops in during the opening action sequence, so very legitimately Batman.
Burton and Keaton turn the lumbering lack of movement to their advantage too, giving Batman a slow but menacing walk, effortlessly dispatching goons with a well-placed punch to the head or kick to the stomach.
More functional and more faithful suits have visited the big screen before and after, but so few made it cool like Keaton. Even better, he had a matching car too.
