2. Batman – Jim Lee
According to Kevin Smith, Zack Snyder has been heavily influenced by Jim Lee’s now iconic take on the Batsuit. Admittedly, it doesn’t look an awful lot different to many of the other designs here, so it’s possible that Smith was referring to the colour scheme in particular. Black and grey is the prevailing them in almost every other suit on this list (and those previously adapted to live action in everything from Tim Burton’s take to Christopher Nolan’s) so using a shade of blue would both help this version stand out from previous iterations and also be visually very unique. However, considering the fact that Man of Steel ditched Superman’s “iconic” red underwear, it seems extremely likely that Ben Affleck won’t be wearing his pants on the outside either come 2016!
