10 Extremely Comic-Accurate Superhero Movie Costumes

Filmmakers face a very difficult task when they have to bring a comic book character to life. On the page, the only limit is the artist’s imagination, but what works in a comic book might not work – or even be possible – in live-action.

The portrayal of Batman in Batman V Superman, with his brutal, murder-happy ways, might have been controversial, but the costume(s) Ben Affleck wears in the film is one of the most spot-on lifts from the comics we have ever seen in a superhero movie.

As the plot borrows heavily from Frank Miller’s revered The Dark Knight Returns, Batfleck’s bulky grey suit with the bloated bat symbol is a complete replication from the graphic novel. Furthermore, the metal armour Bats wears in his fight against Superman is also a direct rip from the suit used in the exact same scenario in the comic.

With Michael Keaton’s being too rubbery and Christian Bale’s too militarized, Batfleck gets the trophy for the most comic-accurate Batsuit in cinema history.
