Gotham's Bruce Wayne Gets His First Batman Costume In New Trailer

Gotham Sinks To New Lows With Bruce’s Awful Batman Costume

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.

Gotham Season 4 will premiere on Thursday, September 21st.

    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.

    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.

    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’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.

    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

    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.

    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.

    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.”
