Batman: Bluprints of the Bat Robot armor released by DC Comics

With the official debut of the brand new Batman in the pages of this week's "Batman #41", Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo have gone and done something that hasn't been explored in Batman canon proper before... By putting the least likely person you'd have expect into the suit in Commissioner James Gordon.

While there is certainly more than meets the eye to this (you have to read the issue, or see the SPOILER reveal here via Comic Book.com), schematics showing off the robosuit designs and its functions have been released by DC Comics.com.

Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo present... The new Batman?

Pretty much expectations for BIG CHANGES for the Batman universe are going to happen when Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo end their biggest storyline of The Caped Crusader yet in the pages of this month's Batman #40. Something will occur that will change the entire landscape of Batman as we know it...

Newsarama has a detailed interview with Snyder, who initially wanted "Endgame" to be his final Batman story... But any continuation thereafter would see something drastic happen to the status quo that would be fresh and uncharted territory to fans of The Dark Knight. What could it be... And is this a mecha Batman we see with a gun in the cover to June's Batman #41?

We can only wait and see what will happen next.
