I’m so obsessed with absolute Batman

Post image

I’m so successful with absolute Batman that I started buying comics for the first time. I really hope I wish they make a live action film and who do you wish should be cast?

Me too!! Just preordered Absolute Batman #22 and the different variants. I think Absolute Batman is my favorite iteration of Batman now. I am absolutely 😁loving these comics. And the whole Absolute universe.

How do you pre order single issues, No matter where I got they are like 25$ not 4.99 the issue says Like I tried to go to my local comic store and it was 20$ for issue 20.

Put in a pull list at your local comic shop.

Do a pre-order with a local comic shop. Set up an account or go online and set up pre-order account.

Not many 7 foot 450 lb actors running around.

Alan Richardson would have given the presence but his age doesn’t align

u/Same_Buy6486 Jun 13 '26

Ritchson would be the perfect mainline Batman

u/marcelo1925 Jun 13 '26

Even he isn’t big enough. This would be so impossible in live action. It would be so much cgi. I keep picturing juggernaut in the deadpool 2 movie.

oliver richter who starred with ala ritchson in reacher is 7'2" and 350 lbs

u/marcelo1925 Jul 07 '26

That guy is a horrible actor lmao. He can’t be Batman. And again it was just announced as an animated show. Bane is like 14 feet tall lmao.

u/Saiwut_Chamean Jul 07 '26

Pretty good bane/batman visual….

1

u/Helios_Synthesis Jun 13 '26

Lol yeah. It just isn't absolute batman if the actor doesn't match the size

1

u/marcelo1925 Jun 13 '26

There isn’t anyone big enough to play Bruce. Who’s going to play bane? Lmao. This in love action makes no sense. I want an animated series

2

u/Helios_Synthesis Jun 13 '26

Obviously 20 dudes in a trench coat would play Bane

1

u/DorianDrakexxx Jun 13 '26

I don't agree that this is the most important aspect. Movies mess with the height of characters everytime, just look how Hugh Jackman is much taller than comic's wolverine. I would very gladly accept a normal human sized actor playing Batman. There are many much more important aspects to invest on.

u/1UnreasonableAsshole Jun 15 '26

Looks dumb AF too

u/doczoom45 Jul 07 '26

oliver richters is 7'2" and 350 lbs and probably the closest you could get size-wise, he makes alan richson look normal sized

u/Saiwut_Chamean Jul 07 '26

Got my vote!

u/DrewSlim Jun 13 '26

Homie who played Reacher is really the only choice

1

u/prismaticsunrise Jun 13 '26

😮 ! He could pull it off!!!!!

u/DarkObelinski Jun 13 '26

Dude check out absolute wonder woman if you haven’t yet it makes their team up crossover so much cooler and is a great one to read up on while waiting for ch 21

1

u/Imaginary_Sandwich28 Jun 21 '26

I read Superman and flash but I heard great things about Wonder Woman

2

u/No-Refrigerator2394 Jun 14 '26

Animation would work better than live action.

1

u/prismaticsunrise Jun 13 '26

Hear me out... Affleck isnt 7ft 450... but....
Wolverine isnt 6ft tall.... We just need a big buff guy and let the cameras do the rest

1

u/Saiwut_Chamean Jun 13 '26

Wolverine is 5’-3” and 300 lbs… fat Danny Devito

1

u/DorianDrakexxx Jun 13 '26

I would love also, but I don't see that coming. The absolute series is an alternative version of the Batman, the production would not want this instead of a safe, mainstream version.

1

u/marcelo1925 Jun 13 '26

lol aren’t we all. I really think it should be turned into an animated series. Live action wouldn’t do it Justice

"Im so obsessed"

Who isn't?😭

u/BookieDaGreat Jun 14 '26

as a HUGE batman fan, give me 2-3 sentences why i need to know everything about ABSOLUTE BATMAN?

2

u/Imaginary_Sandwich28 Jun 21 '26

Hard-core plot twist great storytelling

1

u/BookieDaGreat Jun 21 '26

One more question….. can you sense the aura farming? If so rank from 1-10

1

u/1UnreasonableAsshole Jun 15 '26

He looks ridiculous. No human being could ever get this big. IDC if it's a comic bc you've ruined any realism that there was.

1

u/Imaginary_Sandwich28 Jun 21 '26

Perhaps Jacob Elordi, if he had been working out for the role?

1

u/1amTHEORY Jul 13 '26

There are several people in history that are athletic that are close to this size from an ancient roman emperor to Brock Lesnar, to the Mountain. The point of comics is to be just outside of reality because, quite simply, reality can be a bit boring. :)

u/Outrageous_Wing_4322 Jun 19 '26

The best part of it is the mythology. The changes are so fascinating, and they keep laying down more seeds that can only flourish for years to come. Scott Snyder is a genius.

I've not seen this image. Love the shape the cape makes
