Batman's The Dark Knight Rises 'EMP Blaster' Weapon Revealed

The identity of Batman's newest wonderful toy has been revealed! First seen on the front cover of Empire magazine was an image from The Dark Knight Rises of Batman holding a new shooting weapon that kind of looked like an extra hard drive from the batcave. Fans have been wondering just exactly what the weapon is but the mystery is over. According to a new range of toys the weapon is an "EMP Blaster", a weapon that is capable of shooting an electromagnetic pulse that will disable most electronic devices within its range. We imagine it is something Lucius Fox (Morgan Freeman) has come up with for The Caped Crusader and we can't wait to see how it gets utilisied in the forthcoming film. Eagle eyed readers will have seen that Batman uses the weapon in the latest released trailer for the movie, which you've probably watched a hundred times by now, but you can give it one more view below. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g8evyE9TuYk The Dark Knight Rises opens July 20th, 2012.
