I've always loved the original Azrael's costume

http://i416.photobucket.com/albums/pp245/MDSnowman/Azrael04.jpg

[El Sombrero]

Kate Kane's is the best. The black / red is incredibly striking and I like how they used a logo similar to Batman Beyond, which I always thought looked cool. Her red hair & white face also create awesome contrast.

[E. Wilson]

The modern Nightwing costume, which I hope someone else slips into sooner or later.

[Jimmy Bond]

I know I'm in the minority, but I really like the Red Robin costume. Not the name, but I think the costume is one of Alex Ross's best designs.

[Free-Man]

Batwoman, specifically the slight redesign in Detective Comics. The poster above was correct when he mentioned the striking contrast between the cheshire cat mouth and the red and black armor.

i like how dick grayson as batman is using long clubs. similar to his daredevil thingies he has there.

[Frisky Dingo]

That's not a mullet. This is Dick rocking the mullet look:

Yeah, that Nightwing suit is great. The saying "less is more" works greatly here. Simply, sleak, and dark. Word.

Strangely, I've never read a single Cass Cain Batgirl story, but I think her suit looks fantastic:

That brown trenchcoat Gordon wears is one of the most iconic things in the Batman mythology.

i really like damien batmans costume because of the trenchcoat.i saw it and instantly thought damien. it would be cool to see gordon raise him a little bit. even if its just little moments at the bat signal.

[Global Honored]

Yes, I really dig the Damian/Batman 666 getup.

I used to hate it due to the cowl, but I think thats just because I wasn't used to seeing Tim in a cowl prior to that, and I wasn't a fan of Ramon Bach's first five issues of the series, but thankfully, Marcus To has caused it to grow on me.

i am no tim drake fan. he always seemed like the forgetable robin to me. but i like him as red robin. alex ross did a great design on this. even if he had wanted it to be dick grayson in kingdom come.

Those are the same design, Tim's first Red Robin costume is a rip off of Kingdom Come's :cool:.

Tim's got a new one though more unique to his Red Robin, its not bad.

Thing about the Kingdom Come Red Robin is that he was so hardly in it, you forget about it.

[Jbenn]

Not a huge fan of BB but I think Terry's Bat-Uniform was pretty classic. I wouldn't mind seeing Cassandra using a version of it (I think Cass's full-mask Batgirl costume is as iconic for her as Babs was in her day).

[maniacthw]

This. The Red Robin costume is downright sexy.

To even things out, we should see mainstream Dick Grayson fly a nuclear bomber. :biggrin:

But I can't support the any Red Robin costume so long as it has that accursed ugly cowl. Maybe in the future, when the wearer is wrinkled and bald it makes sense. But Tim looks incredibly un-cool in it. And he's a superhero, looking cool does matter.


I liked Jason's Batman costume.

I also dug the Robin suit he had in Hush under the trench coat.

[HaroldAllnut]

My favorite has always been the classic Tim Drake Robin outfit, big gloves, ninja boots, and all.

It's like someone decided to mix Robins old costume with Batmans and then throw up all over them.

i know its the same costume.. i said alex ross did a great job when he came up with it.

[Jared]

My favorite Robin look is Tim's from BTAS.

The all red and black "one year later" Robin costume hovers somewhere in my top 3 superhero costumes of all time.

[pariah-1972]

Does the Bat costume from Arkham Asylum count?

[LightningRider]

She isn't Bat Family per se, but she is Kate's cousin and currently resides in Gotham.

Love the look.

[Sixty-Three]

this thread should be retitled the "Red Robin Costume appressh" thread.

[El Sombrero]

I'll co-sign the Tim Drake OYL costume. IMO the best Robin costume ever.

http://i176.photobucket.com/albums/w182/molly6342/superheros/Robin/TimDrake.jpg

It looks so much better without the green, and while the "exposed legs" on Dick / Jason are iconic, it's kinda stupid in an unrealistic way, this makes much more sense as something a vigilante would actually wear while on duty.

[The Batman]

I've always loved the original Azrael's costume

http://i416.photobucket.com/albums/pp245/MDSnowman/Azrael04.jpg

By rights, Azrael's costume shouldn't work nearly as well as it does. I just can't help but like the thing.

Kate Kane's Batwoman, to my mind, probably has the best look out of all the Bat-family. It's sleek, stark, and stunning. The Red Robin costume is growing on me, but there's still something about it that feels off or incomplete somehow.

Does Ragman get to be a part of the Bat-family? He's supposedly operating in Gotham. I've always loved his weird patchwork look.

^^I completely agree

Also have to add Kate Kane Batwoman and Damian Robin. I like all the Robin costumes, though, really. I like all of Tim's, but I don't like the Red Robin outfit. Kinda blech.

BTW, where's the Damian-Batman/Conner-Superman stuff from?? An issue of Superman/Batman? I've never seen a Damian-Bats story not by Grant... also gotta say, I love his Batman costume, but since that's Batman it doesn't really count for this thread.

Haven't read it but I just looked it up and apparently it's Superman/Batman #75.

I don't think anyone can argue with the late Nightwing costume. Simple and perfect and such an improvement over the previous one.

I also have to echo the OYL Robin costume.

I want to like the Red Robin but it just feels like it isn't quite there, you know?

That's why I loved that they used it for Jason's costume in Batman: Under The Red Hood. It was so much more practical.

If only this costume was always drawn to look this good! Usually, it looked blah.

It's a little bland, IMHO.

I would like fins on the cowl (more bird-like), a scalloped cape with an interior-only golden edge-lining (like Captain Marvel), and a red stipe on the boot. I think it could use more color and style.

[NakedOni]

I love the super-gritty 90's Jean-Paul Valley Batman.
