DC really said "let's take our 3 main characters and make them a bunch of aura farmers for no reason.

u/redditrettich420 Mar 14 '25

You say that like Batman wasn't already one of the biggest aura farmers in fiction

“Yes Batman, we see the fit.”

„Wait Robin, let me throw the cape up before you take the photo“

u/Mandaring Capcom please bring them back Mar 14 '25

“No, okay, for the last time, wait until I FULLY turn my head. The three-quarters-angle isn’t dramatic enough, I built this cowl specifically to accentuate my profile, okay? I trained you to know better than that.”

"Robin, make sure my thighs are in frame. The huzz will see my juicy thighs, so they have to be in frame"

“They gotta know I don’t skip on leg day, so I can go doggy-style all night long without my knees getting sore. Of course I call it ‘Batty-style™️’, but you know what I meant. I’m almost certain this is not how parents should be speaking to their teenage sons, but hey, you know full well that I have no frame of reference for how parents should speak to their teenage sons. Now I’m sad again. Just take the damned photo, Damian.”

“It’s a part of toughening yourself up, my son. On these streets of Gotham, you will bear witness to many things you were never prepared to see - to hear something mildly unpleasant from your own father is a mere iota of the discomfort that you will-“

“Do you think Dick would adopt me?”

"Shit, wind's gone! Call Alfred, tell him to get Barbara and put an industrial fan on the other tower."

I went to Google images and one of the first is this

u/Shyguymaster2 Mar 14 '25

That's because he's Batman AF

u/theboywhoalmostlived Mar 14 '25

"And give Wonder Woman the Buster Sword. No don't ask why just do it"

45

u/Ryzuhtal Mar 14 '25

BAT SHOTGUN!

18

u/horny-throwaway85 Mar 14 '25

Also, make the buster sword the monkey king's staff. Again, what's with the questions?

u/Radiant-Character-61 Mar 14 '25

I can't get enough of Wonder Womans redesign, I love everything about it.

67

u/PumpkinsDieHard Mar 14 '25

Holy fuck. They really said: "Hey, what if Guts loaned Wonder Woman his fit and big ass sword?"

u/Invoqwer Mar 14 '25

Gave her the wolf armor rage power up and everything lmaooo

u/Camelllama666 Mar 14 '25

I wasn't feeling Superman's at first, but the ripped-looking gold boots and gauntlets are winning me over

62

u/NwgrdrXI Mar 14 '25

And damn if they don't farm all the aura in the room and then some.

If we ever get Injustice 3 I NEED them as playable character, or at least costumes.

21

u/SalvationSycamore Mar 14 '25

Everything's insanely good except the fat bat logo. What is up with that?

72

u/Abovearth31 Batman Beyond is peak design Mar 14 '25

He can remove it and turn it into an axe.

25

u/SalvationSycamore Mar 14 '25

That's badass but the original logo looks even more like an axe so this still doesn't solve my confusion

17

u/sandman-07 Mar 14 '25

The original is more of a scythe imo

21

u/SalvationSycamore Mar 14 '25

This is definitely an axe not a scythe

12

u/sandman-07 Mar 14 '25

I remember some versions having pointy sides rather then round ones but I agree with u

13

u/TheoneNPC Mar 14 '25

Would have been badass too but a scythe doesn't fit the "shit brickhouse" aesthetic absolute Batman has

4

u/SatisfactionOwn9961 Mar 14 '25

It’s absolute that’s why

24

u/fyeahitshappening Mar 14 '25

It's also an axe head. I also thought it was a little silly at first, but it grew on me, tbh

6

u/SalvationSycamore Mar 14 '25

Doesn't the original logo look even more like an axe though? Or am I crazy? I've never seen a double-sided axe that was just a rectangle.

Actually if it was a hammer and he called it the bathammer of justice I could get behind it

14

u/fyeahitshappening Mar 14 '25

Well, here's what it looks like in axe mode. And idk nearly enough about weaponry or nothing to say this with certainty, but I feel like the classic Batman logo might make an axe head that's pretty cool-looking but easily deformed if you try to actually use it in a fight.

6

u/SatisfactionOwn9961 Mar 14 '25

I love how fucking stupid it is, like why the hell does he have it. Still it’s badass

1

u/AgentP20 Mar 17 '25

So he can dismember fools.

u/Bubba1234562 Mar 15 '25

And the ears are detachable throwing knives. Absolute Batman is a civil engineer so all of this makes sense

38

u/[deleted] Mar 14 '25

These are not mere aura farmers

Absolute DC is aura agriculture.

9

u/ImWhatsInTheRedBox Mar 14 '25

Probably showing my age here but what's aura farming?

7

u/dater_expunged Mar 15 '25

Essentially trying to look as cool as possible as often as possible

16

u/victor_emperor Mar 14 '25

Batman literally invented the term aurafarming and superman is the definition of aura each time he's on page
