Big meaty Proletariat Batman
In this issue he beats off a bunch of white supremacists
Here is the link to the annual issue, its a standalone story so if you want you can start with it
The first story is written and drawn by Daniel Warren Johnson, he made a really good transformers comic here is a link to issue 1
WHY is he so fucking huge, like is it diagetic or just a stylistic choice, i’m not complaining just confused
Dude, they state in one of the previous issues that he’s 6’7" and 320+ pounds, it’s insane. I like Absolute Batman, but in an ironic kind of sense. It’s like a take on old '90s EXTREME comics, but it is so ridiculous it’s good. Not my favorite of the line, but I enjoy it’s outlandisheness.
What’s you favourite Absolute series? I just finished batman may go for Absolute Wonder Woman next
Wonder Woman and Martian Manhunter have amazing art and are must reads IMO. Superman is just okay and I’m having to force myself through flash and green lantern.
I feel the same but I’m pretty positive on Superman. It’s definitely a step below Bruce and Diana, but it’s trying to take on much bigger subjects politically which I appreciate even if it doesn’t always land.
Wonder Woman is by far the best, closely followed by Martian Manhunter. Superman is a great read and I only put it third because Wonder Woman and Martian Manhunter are so damn good.
Nice yeah I’ve just dled WW
Ya, I’ve seen worse.
The time that the old Batman spent learning every martial art known to man, new Batman has spent bulking.
This is actually a great explanation. No less dedication, but far fewer resources.
He is canonically a big boy since issue 1
Everyone is constantly referring to him as huge so it’s definitely diagetic, but it’s stylistically exaggerated at moments of high tension and action
that explains a lot actually, yeah he definitely looks more like just a big guy in the non-action scenes now that I’ve read some, it’s just in the thread image he looks like fuckin’ dr mundo
