The fine folks over at ScreenRant have made a cool infographic that showcases just about every Batman costume ever. It’s missing a few of them, but it’s pretty comprehensive including, most notably, the all black number he briefly wore in the comics in the 1990s.
But, hey–it’s still pretty awesome!

I think the outfit you’re refering to is the Troika outfit they list there.
They left out DC One Million and the Young Justice costume
Yep, I said the all-black outfit was in there. 🙂
That all black outfit lasted as long as Moench was on the book or from 1992-1998.
So I guess you just blocked all of those years out of your head, did you? 🙂
I’ll take a poster of this please, thanks
It’s all about the Silver Age. Blue and gray all the way!
Black and gray! It’s suppose to be back and gray! Blue was just how they highlighted black back in the old days and the original black and gray suit became blue and gray to the audience… same thing happened to Spider-Man…
*grumble*
*kicks can*
Blue and gray is WAY more intimidating.
Plus it makes for a better song.

I’m with Conor. The blue and gray looks good on paper, but makes ZERO sense for the character. I think the animated series nailed an ideal middle ground it with the deep navy blue.
I’m with Conor on this, black and gray is the way to go. Blue and gray is highly impractical if you’re trying to meld in the shadows!!!
On a side note, they included the Batman of Zur-En-Arh! Yeah! 😀
I like it because it’s impractical.
One of my favorite comic things is when they color Batman and Spider-Man with black instead of blue. Looks better.
I really want a Zur-En-Arrh mini or something. I think it’s one of the best ideas Morrison’s come up with so far in his Batman run.
I’m behind you 1000% man! I’d sell my unborn kids to read that!
That’s not a Morrison idea though
True, I should have been more specific. I meant that Morrison’s reinterpretation of Zur-En-Arrh is one of his best ideas.
New Batman Adventures version rules them all!
Thanks for sharing this guys!
wow, didn’t realize he had so many different suits. it seems that all that change much is the color. shows that the design of the suit is iconic. I had no idea that they’re making a Batman Earth one, I really like the Superman earth one. Hope it’s good. thanks Conor.
Awesome image. It would indeed make for a great poster! Thanks for sharing this.
It makes me realize how silly I think anything but the all-black suits look, as far as what I’d say a real Batman would go for. Though I admit the absolute scariest are Azrael Batman (holy crap) and Zur-en-Arrh Batman (please – kill my friends and take my wallet – just don’t do anything else to me!).
Wow I love it! Thanks for the great Christmas Eve-eve gift!!!
Where’s the costume with the shoulder horns?
Batman wearing bright blue or blue in general never bothered me. Yeah maybe it doesn’t represent a bat but it still looks awesome.
Maybe my bias is showing for the era I love the most, but the Troika costume (didn’t even know that was the name of the run) is my favorite. It looks the most practical and it’s perfect to represent Batman by being all black. This infographic should have had the cape of that costume going down the rest of the image, cause that would be the most accurate interpretation of it.

this is awesome. i want a poster of this.
do you think that closet in the batcave is big enough for batman and robin as well. hahaha i kid, i kid.
batman rules. definitely the baddest dude in all of comics.
he doesnt have any powers, but he has one helluva wardrobe
I actually think the Thomas Wayne suit from Flashpoint was my fave.
To be honest, my favorite incarnation of the costume, will always be the batman year one. It has the right color scheme, it’s sleek, simple yet bold, and it looks amazing in silohette. Ever since i saw that image of batman staring down the criminal underworld gathering through a broken wall it has been my favorite. Only wish the ears were just a tad, just a tad longer.
Very cool. I would’ve liked Tim Drake Batman from Titans Tomorrow, Jason Todd Batman from Battle for the Cowl and Thomas Wayne Batman from Flashpoint, but then you start ending in every elseworld ever and it gets out of control. Green Lantern Batman, Russian Batman, Vampire Batman, Lego Batman!
Also I just finished reading an article about the first appearance of batman and how it’s been recoloured, so I love the purple gloves.
