Jan Strnad's script called for a milk mustache on Bruce but DC strongly objected. That's why you see him wiping his mouth in the second panel of the layout. I've heard that Bruce Timm has a rule against showing Batman like this, mostly still in costume, but with his cowl down. It surprised me when I first heard about it but it makes sense now. It takes away from his mystique. Bruce Wayne's, not Bruce Timm's. Nothing could diminish Bruce Timm's mystique.

ReplyDeleteThanks Kevin
Damn, I love me the Nowlan Man-Bat. Really, besides your Hellboy, number one on my favorite things to see you draw. He just looks...right.
ReplyDeleteBut as far as the images shown above, yeah, I love the progression of the shading. Even the second to last image is grand.
so great, one of my favorites from you...
ReplyDeleteLove it , nice to see the evolution too.
ReplyDeletei would very much love to see more of your script to finish. it always gives me a better idea of what to focus on, and to create interest when i draw a page.
ReplyDeletethanks Mr. Nowlan
peace out
My favorite panel is when batman confronts the bad guys in grey/black shaded tight suit. Those bad guys are so stylized and the grey/black made my day.
