In a new trailer for Gotham Season 4, we finally see a young Bruce Wayne (David Mazouz) donning an all-black protective suit to mask his identity from street thugs as he grows into becoming the Dark Knight. Unfortunately, it’s pretty horrible.
Fans of Fox’s Gotham will be happy to know that the show’s fourth season will see Bruce Wayne in a black mask and padded costume protecting Gotham City as a vigilante. It’s not quite Batman yet. In fact, it’s downright awful. Fans have become impatient with the show’s slow pace and the very long build up to Wayne discovering his destiny as Batman. I’m almost certain this biker costume is not what most people were hoping for.
The new trailer shows Alfred (Sean Pertwee) doing his best to dissuade Bruce from becoming the city’s hero. Hopefully he manages to dissuade from this awful suit instead.
Considering he is still a very young Bruce Wayne who didn’t actually become batman until he was fully grown the masked suit shouldn’t look like a batman suit at all so the headline is very misleading…. I’m pretty sure Spiderman’s 1st suit wasn’t close to what it ended up being later.
It is fugly.
He looks like Bible Man
Even bibleman looks better
Its not really stupid its a made up suit , then the real deal will come , another idiot post from fortress ? Cmon
That whole show is incredibly stupid. It’s a juvenile attempt at telling an amazing and complex mythology. It could have been really awesome, it’s a shame.
Spidermans original costume didn’t look so good either
It’s just batboy, he’s probably gonna get f’d up this season
Name one super hero that had a dope first costume, expect black panther.
Superman
You don’t remember smallville do you?
Expect superman
Yeah! Stupid like this hahahaha
This show is a joke, a disappointment for many Batman fans.
IT”S not a Batman show!!!!!! So no reason to be disappointed!
Safeeya Mahomed
It maybe too soon.
He’s not going to get it right on the 1st try. Like Clark in Smallville when he became the Red-Blue Blur and then just the Blur, then he got it right.
Hopefully he’ll figure out that he needs to make himself more of a symbol that people can get behind as a result of this ridiculous look.
It is not supposed to be the “bat” costume people, he has no Idea at this point in his life that he will be a bat, just beginning stages here!!
Still looking forward to this
It’s NOT the batsuit!!!!!! It’s the Vigilante Bruce Wayne suit. He hasn’t even THOUGHT of Batman yet! Why do people keep trying to make Gotham a “Batman” show when it’s a Gotham BEFORE Batman show?! Besides which it’s JUST a tv show (a GREAT tv show but still JUST a tv show) and Batman isn’t a REAL person so no reason for every one to get so worked up about what the proto batsuit might look like.
I don’t think he needs a rubber mask. The ski mask was fine.
Personally I liked the show in the beginning. Giving insight into Bruce’s journey from the death of his parents to becoming the BAT. I also apreciated getting a look at the villians as they developed from lackeys, citizens, mob gofers ect, to what they will be.
Again, when the show started I was fully on board and accepted the shows writers had a lot of liberties as to the back stories of the characters as they had never been fully defined.
But, I lost intrest.
But this article is just BS.
Regardless of what the suit Bruce wears, it is not going to be the Batsuit. He is still Bruce Wayne. Not Batman.
Every flagship hero has had some stupid looking suit in the beginning. But put it in context.
The heros that are having back stories were already wildly popular and we all were familliar with their iconic suits. So seeing anything other than that just isn’t satisfying.
So if you expect a back story first costume to be dope as fuck, you are setting yourself up for disappointment.
His costume kinda reminds me of captain Americas costume in avengers 1 while the movie was good his costume could have been better (thankfully it did in future captain America/avengers films) Gothams batman costume is just like that where the show is good his costume could have been much much better
bring out the gimp!
hahahaha EXACTLY !!!!
to be a young crime fighter! so much hate!
It seems like most changes like this on the show are only temporary and evolve quite quickly. The costume’s only a prototype I’m assuming, so I doubt we’ll see it long. Either way, I’m a fan of the show, so I’ll be sticking around.
Assuming? You should know it is
I stopped watching after the mid-season break last year
yep
Which break? The one before or after the “Jerome arc”?
Is he Batman or Dildohead
isn’t he just learning to be batman??
Because he’ll totally have a multi million dollar armor at 16
I’m getting a little burnt out on all of the comic book TV shows and movies to be honest. I say this as someone who has a tattoo of wolverine.
You eat pizza everyday and after awhile you don’t like pizza anymore
That’s basically where I’m at. 😂
Mainstream has embraced the counter-culture,
The counter-culture cannot survive being embraced.
It’s not even the mainstreaming of the subject that bothers me; I’m just feeling a tad over-saturated.
I’ve been feeling this way since like last year. I’m pretty tired of anything Marvel and DC. I need to find new underground series. The type almost no one has heard about.
Travis E Hathcock you are dead to me after that comment 😂😂
Oh bullshit, that’s like saying ‘all video games are the same’ or ‘all books are the same’ or ‘all comedies are the same’. Fuck your jaded bullshit. Go outside and get a life if you’re bored with your hobby.
Think a lot of us are feeling like this. There was a daft thread asking if Robert Downey Jr should make a 3rd Sherlock film or a 4th Iron Man and I was just how could it be possible that people aren’t sick of Iron Man..
The whole thing has gone into overdrive and it’s too much
There was always going to be a trial and error thing regarding his suit. I mean he was never going to immediately go to a final style suit, it’ll have to develop with the character.
Really? Spider-Man’s first costume was a red and blue jumpsuit and a red hood. Daredevil simply wore all black at first. And we’re hating on a teenage Batman who isn’t even Batman yet, not even at Year One??? GTFO
all that money and he’s rocking a crappy gimp suit…
How can he ever be year one batman when he already wore a batsuit at 16(or however old he is)?
We hate that they destroyed all lore. That’s why the show is terrible.
Who cares what you think if you dont like the show just dont watch it
If don’t care what I think why are you posting your shit?
this looks like it should have been in the kick ass movies…..
U mean a movie about kids making super hero costumes?…
Kind of like how Bruce is a child of that same age right now??.
How ironic they would make something a child is suppose to have thought up look like something a child thought up….
still a shit costume…..even spider-man had the decency to hide his face……
PREACH ON!!!!!
Was just gonna post the same thing…..
Dylan Maloney too bad YOU didn’t have the same decency as Peter Parker!
I can guarantee you that, regardless of financial means, most 14-16 year olds wouldn’t be able to develop a practical costume that is any better than this one.
He’s. A. Kid.
It’s SUPPOSED to look bad, so they can show the progression toward his more permanent suit-look. Dumbass. 😒
Big Kiddy? Lol
Kinda looks like nick cage
I’ll see how it plays out. It would make sense for Bruce to go through a trial and error period before he perfected his crimefightin techniques.
Expectations live with them and you’ll be a sad angry person…
Gotham “sinks to new lows”? Were there “old lows”? It’s been great from the start (although one would never gather that sentiment based on that headline). I’m not going to stop watching it over someone’s negative opinion on a costume.
Old lows were totally destroying anything about it that resembled Batman. Followed quickly by introducing every single member of the dc universe a la Smallville style of hideous writing. Went downhill from “sucks big time.”
Kurt Mathis
I agree with assessment. I considered starting it myself, but the whole “its Batman, but at the same time it isn’t Batman” angle, just felt to tiring to keep up with.
Its not batman bruce is only in a handful of episodes it centers around gordon not bruce
Kurt Mathis agrred. I stopped after season 3. This was supposed to be origin stories. Instead all the characters were already themselves. Penguin, joker, all of them. In between their episodes it was just a catch a criminal a week story. Boring.
Kurt Mathis You’re a dumbass. Gotham is possibly one of the best renditions of the entire mythos to ever exist. Cry more.
Wow, I want some of what Aaron is smoking.
Opinions are like assholes … Everyone has one, and most of them stink!
To each their own, as to whether or not you like or dislike Gotham. Nobody is “correct” in their assessment or stance regarding Gotham, or any show, movie, or music. It is merely a personal preference.
Now, can we move-on and start working on actually improving the world?
The article is by The Riddler?
It’s early Batman can’t use new costume come on now
Oh stop your whining. Not everything has to be perfect.
It has to be a prototype it looks to generic
Garbage. The whole, sordid, asinine, stupid series. Just utter garbage.
Isn’t it supposed to look bad?
What the duck it doesn’t even have pointy ears! How can you look like a bat without pointy ears!?!
It’s not supposed to look like a bat. He hasn’t become batman yet. He’s a kid, who’s just starting out trying this crime-fighter thing. Yeah, it looks like something a kid put together. Because it IS.
BATMAN IS THE GREATEST DETECTIVE OF ALL TIME AND EVEN AS A KID WOULD KNOW BATS HAVE POINTY EARS!
He’s not Batman yet, he hasn’t even come up with the idea of trying to look like one……also, I should get that caps lock button looked at, it appears to have stuck
HE 👏🏼IS 👏🏼ALWAYS 👏🏼BATMAN 👏🏼BRUCE 👏🏼IS 👏🏼HIS 👏🏼TRUE 👏🏼MASK
Show is crazy and fun.
Is DCsucks month over yet? These pieces are getting more eyerolling
Is just the beginning, all heroes begin wearing shity costumes even Batman
I was taking it as his proto-Batman costume. Not his actual Batman costume…
Why God why?!
Mike Rothenberger I still have 47 episodes to watch on the DVR
😂 just give it up man. Just one more DC character from our childhood that they butchered
People who watched M.A.N.T.I.S would understand the reference in the costume
