#THE LONG DARK CONCEPT ART SERIES#
The clip didn't contain any new imagery from the series, but Timm assured fans of its authenticity, describing Batman: Caped Crusader as "more Batman: The Animated Series than Batman: The Animated Series." 16 in a behind-the-scenes video featuring its considerably high-profile creative team. Titled Batman: Caped Crusader, the new series was showcased at this year's DC FanDome on Oct. Abrams, Bruce Timm and Matt Reeves teaming up to create a spiritual successor to the highly regarded Batman: The Animated Series. Notably, despite his association with Batman and other dark characters like Spawn, Capullo never wanted to become a horror artist but considers himself "typecast" due to his partnership with Snyder.Īlthough this particular pitch failed to progress past the development stage, Batman's animated future is assured, with J.J. The storyline provided a retelling of the Batman's early days, putting him in an outfit inspired by the classic Bob Kane and Bill Finger version, complete with purple gloves. Capullo and Snyder worked on the Dark Nights: Metal and Dark Nights: Death Metal events, co-creating the grotesque Batman Who Laughs - a twisted amalgamation of Batman and the Joker. This element of the suit quickly vanished but eventually re-emerged in Snyder and Capullo's Batman: Zero Year. The presence of purple in the Dark Knight's costume hearkens back to the Caped Crusader's Golden Age roots, where Bruce Wayne's original Detective Comics disguise featured a pair of purple gloves.
