You find the strangest stuff over on Etsy sometimes. Like this mask which envisions a hybrid between Batman and Bane. The artist who made it likes to call it “Batbane.” I just like to call it straight-up weird.
Grab the Batbane mask for about $163(USD) from Ministry of Masks if you’d like to be the biggest freak in town.
When Gotham is in ruins, you have my permission to take this mask off your head.
Looking for a piece of fine art to hang up alongside your Renoir and Rembrandt paintings? Well, here you go…
Batman? Check. Unicorn? Check. Robot? Check. Rainbow? Check. Frolicking Dolphins? Check. What else could you ask for? What’s that you say? Sharks with laser beams? Sorry, you’ll have to look elsewhere.
Grab this awesome 11″x14″ print from artist Rosewine for $13(USD) over on Etsy.
Kia Motors, DC Entertainment, and RIDES Magazine unveiled their first of 8 Justice League-inspired Kias at the recent 2012 New York Comic Con. The launch was part of DC’s “We Can Be Heroes” campaign, which helps fight famine in Africa.
This Batman-inspired Optima was on display at New York’s Time Warner Center and is the beginning of a 10-month partnership based on the characters that make up the Justice League. They hope to raise awareness of the charity campaign, which Batman would certainly approve of.
I’m not sure that Batman would ever buy a Kia, but I love what they have done with this car. It certainly looks great with the whole Batman theme – especially that grill.

Here’s an Apple Maps parody that’s absolutely hilarious: what if Batman used Apple Maps in The Dark Knight to find Rachel Dawes? Yeah, that wouldn’t have been good. Siri would have sent Batman down wrong turns, parking lots and malls just to see everything get blown up. More »
We’ve already seen a LEGO version of Batman’s base. But while that one opted for a vertical build, Carlyle Livingston II and Wayne Hussey chose to make their Batcave sprawl lengthwise. It’s crammed with wonderful details just waiting to be discovered.
According to The Brothers Brick, the diorama is made of over 20,000 parts and weighs over 100lbs. Some of its parts – such as the Batmobile’s turntable and the costume wall – are moved by motors to evoke Batman’s cutting edge technology. Then there’s the excellent lighting that sets the gloomy mood. It took Livingston and Hussey a total of 800 hours over 12 weeks to finish the Batcave.

These cookies look delicious. Any kid would be happy to pig out on these sugary treats. Forget a birthday cake. Fill my belly with some LEGO pieces, some Batmen and some friendly neighborhood Spider-Men.
These come from Cookie Artisan, who is all about delicious snacks that are just as cute as any cake. These Batman and Spider-Man LEGO cookies are so completely awesome and delicious looking they are making my mouth water.
Man, I wish I was a kid and my mom made these for me. I could stare at that image all day long, but I would just be hungry and jealous.

Mark Wayne Williams, the chubby Batman who was once arrested for dangling from a building, just got arrested again and yep, he was dressed as Batman at the time of the arrest. What did he do this time? More »
After false starting a couple of weeks ago, the Blu-ray trailer for The Dark Knight Rises is back, and Entertainment Weekly has heard from Warner Bros. that December 4th is the official release date. Also on display from EW is this limited edition Bat Cowl packaging which will be available at launch. While there’s not a full spec list, extras will include a Batmobile-focused documentary and more than a dozen featurettes about going behind the scenes of the movie with Christopher Nolan and his team. We expect to see more details soon, for now just check out the trailer embedded after the break.
Update: The press release with all the details and an image of the Blu-ray box art are out, posted by TheHDRoom.

Additionally, fans can nab the whole trilogy in the The Dark Knight Trilogy Limited Edition Giftset which has a price of $52.99, although they might want to wait until 2013 when The Dark Knight Trilogy Ultimate Collector’s Edition will arrive. Got all that? Check after the break for the list of extras plus the box art for both versions due this year.
Update 2: Check out the full press release after the break, including word about a The Dark Knight Rises app on iOS as well as Android for newer Samsung Galaxy devices. Already out on iOS as the Gotham City’s most wanted app, it will add more photo modification and interactive features, and when the disc is released it will become a second screen app for use during the movie.

Good for over $1 billion at the box office, Christopher Nolan’s third Batman movie is probably this year’s most anticipated home video release (The Avengers next week may have something to say about that) and now Warner Bros. has given us a trailer for The Dark Knight Rises on Blu-ray. Previous movies in the series have always delivered on Blu-ray, as well as his other recent hit, Inception. Unfortunately the video maxes out at 480p, but we don’t need any additional resolution to see the release date listed for both disc and digital download is December 3rd. Rumors have flown about different releases dates and possible extras like a director’s cut, but recently sources have indicated no such extended offering is in the works. Whether you think the flick was long enough (or even too long), you can press play to check out the clip embedded after the break…and clear the first Monday in December on your calendar for a trilogy viewing marathon.

When I think of superheroes, I usually envision large, hulking men or women in tights, capable of taking down the most evil of supervillains. They usually don’t conjure up images of tiny, cuddly knits which are small enough for the cat to swallow.
But the textile artists of Sweden’s Crivens Studio clearly have the latter in their minds. They handmake and sell these miniscule superheroes which measure just about 1″ tall each. Each tiny hero is knit from yarn and the is small enough to let your dolls play with them – assuming you still play with dolls – and your dolls still play with dolls too.
They’re currently available for $25(USD) each in Batman, Superman and Iron Man versions, and if you’re more into zombies than superheroes, there’s a couple of those for sale too.
