Dick Grayson is Batman

Description

It's the natural evolution of the character. Blasted DC, curmudgeon fans and their retcons destroying all the good ideas.

I changed the costume up a bit that Grayson wore in the comics. There were some ideas with potential, but were executed in a silly manner.

I lengthened his gloves/gauntlets to make them more utilitarian, as a close-range fighter would need. The comics gave him various levels of short gloves that just looked silly for anyone, let alone Batman.

His belt had to change, period. I hate the giant Bat-shaped belt buckle they gave him, so I just changed it to a simple buckle. I kept the idea they had of the future tech looking utility belt for the sides (I imagine it's inspired by Batman Begins).

I also added shinguards to his boots. Every artist seemed to do his own version of the boots, so I did mine too. I thought having armored gloves but not boots lacked a sense of balance. And hey, I loved Keaton's armored Batman suit from the 1989 movie.

Dick Grayson Batman FOREVER!

Looks great, and yes, Dick Grayson is awesome. As was Keaton's Batman suit. But as you know I am a bit partial to Bale's Batman suit (my techie side). But in any case this is a great take on Grayson's suit :)
