Batman To Reportedly Wear Kryptonite-Laced, Missile-Firing Armored Batsuit In Batman V. Superman

 


Rumors are surfacing online about the finer details of The Dark Knight?s battle armor in Batman V. Superman: Dawn of Justice. In a rumor from Batman-News.com, the armor used to combat Superman will take many visual cues from Batman: The Dark Knight Returns? design. This matches what was shown at San Diego Comic-Con earlier this year. The rumor however, also says that Batman?s armor will be laced with Kryptonite and will fire missiles. While director Zack Snyder has not yet introduced Kryptonite into the DC Cinematic Universe, he teased in an interview last year that the element didn?t not exist.

The rumor also mentioned that Ben Affleck?s Batman will drive two different vehicles in the film. While Warner Bros. officially announced the Batmobile, the report couldn?t confirm if the second vehicle would be another set of wheels, or an aerial vehicle like the Batplane.

There were hints early on that the batmobile we saw in those first black and white teaser shots was only one of a few, but it'll be interesting if it's another batmobile or like the post says something else.

Isn't that more the suit though? i.e. it makes him look more toned/bigger (kind of like Christian Bale and his batman suit)

 

Without the suit in man of steel, he didn't look as big/ripped (obviously still VERY big and toned though!)

Having the idea of batman wearing a suit with Kryptonite in it is just stupid to throw out there just to make it so they can fight each other. If the fighting is like it was in the Avengers then fine so long as they combine at the end to defeat a common enemy and all is happy.

This is at least partly based on The Dark Knight Returns, in which he used Kryptonite (delivered by Oliver Queen) to reduce Sups strength.

Without Oliver in the film (?) putting it in his armor is a KISS alternative.

Also, Bats has kept pieces of Kryptonite in his kit for decades just in case Sups went rogue, even after they were allies. He also keeps different types (green, red, blue, gold etc) in a safe in the Batcave.

Sometimes he's carried it as a dart, other times as a blade or some other deliverable form. Whatever, Bats is ready for about anything.

Major Batman Character Rumored To Already Be Dead In Batman V. Superman

 

New reports are surfacing at Bad Ass Digest that one of Batman?s allies will have already bitten the dust prior the Batman V. Superman?s events.

 

Still with us? Fair enough. The latest rumor is that Gotham City Police Commissioner James Gordon will be dead and buried by the time that Batman clashes with the Man of Steel. Digest reports that in the film?s script, there is a call for a shot of James Gordon?s memorial plaque. Gordon wouldn't be the first dead ally to enter the film?s rumor mill, as many reported several months ago that Batman V. Superman?s universe would also have a dead Robin.

    • A gatekeeper is basically a company that is used by so many other (businesses) that sudden changes could impact the other business might fail. Like for example, say a car show room uses AWS to it's database, as gatekeepers amazon wouldn't really be expected to just change it's terms of conditions that would rug pull the database from the car show's business leaving them in the dark.
    • As someone who isn't in the EU what is all this gatekeeper stuff about anyways?
    • The data center gold rush has tossed all forms of sensibility and reasoning right out of the window. The craziest part being that AI infrastructure isn't driven by consumer demand. It's being driven by manufacturers to force AI onto the market, consumers be damned.
    • Apple has not said whether the new prices are temporary ..... LOL.... These are the new prices peeps, because they will still sell them. Everybody will get used to the price hike = more Profit!
    • EU says AWS and Microsoft Azure should be treated as DMA gatekeepers by Pradeep Viswanathan Under the European Commission's Digital Markets Act (DMA), a company is presumed to be a gatekeeper if it meets certain quantitative thresholds. However, the Commission can still investigate and designate a company even if it does not meet the numeric thresholds, provided the service has a major market impact. The European Commission launched its investigations into AWS and Azure on November 18, 2025, to address unfair or anti-competitive practices in the cloud sector. Today, the European Commission has informed Amazon and Microsoft of its preliminary view that their cloud computing services, AWS and Azure, should be designated as gatekeepers under the DMA. The EC highlighted that Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Microsoft Azure are the largest and second-largest cloud computing services in the European Union. Both of these platforms act as important gateways between businesses and their customers in the EU. The EC further mentioned that AWS and Azure have reached significant turnover, built large and entrenched user bases, and benefit from high switching costs and customer lock-in. Furthermore, their operational capacity and investments appear to have outpaced those of competitors. Teresa Ribera, Executive Vice-President for Clean, Just and Competitive Transition, said the following: It is important to note that the findings are preliminary and do not decide the final outcome. Amazon and Microsoft can now review the findings and respond to the Commission. However, if the Commission confirms its preliminary findings, it will formally designate Amazon and Microsoft as gatekeepers for AWS and Azure. Once designated, Microsoft and Amazon will have six months to bring their cloud services into full compliance with the DMA’s rules and regulations.
