On a side note: aren't all Batman costumes home-made? ...
Still, when Bruce Wayne decided to become Batman and he had to make a
costume right? The three Kents made Superman's costume in the Man of
Steel.
That's not the point. It's the grandeur of it all. It shouldn't LOOK
homemade. Since you use Man of Steel as an example, JB's Superman's
costume looked as it should (not home made).
I think Pope's and Mazzucchelli's costumes look far better than Neal's version.
You seriously think Pope's costume looks better than Neal's version? I know art is subjective...but seriously? Incidentally,
take a look at Detective Comics #27 and especially The Bat-Man's gloves
and they bear an uncanny resemblance to Pope's
Well, they're gloves...but they still don't look like Bugs Bunny gloves like Pope's do.
All of these artists are very stylized. They all have very distinct ways of doing the characters
Yes, but they still had a heroic looking Batman. Pope's Batman looks
like some homeless guy with a malformed head in a dime store costume.
U-G-L-Y...and it don't got no alibi. Pope's Batman looks heroic to me and yeah I do like it better than Neal's version. Pope's take on the character embodies Batman. You say they look like Bugs Bunny gloves but so what? You don't like Pope's version of Batman and that and what gets you a cup of coffee? It doesn't matter. I think Pope has captured the essence of Batman here. That's my opinion and just as valid as yours. It doesn't matter if everyone says the Earth is flat does it? It doesn't mean it is.
John has a character in Doom Patrol and I believe she made her own costume (although I could be mistaken) to the Chief's objection if I recall.
I could go on with examples throughout comic history.
