Carmine Infantino is synonymous with the Silver Age of DC Comics and is credited with revamping the Flash into the character (or at least costume design) that everyone is familiar w/ today. Among that he also helped tone down the sillier aspects of Batman and Robin that had come to be in the 1950s.
This picture (and the similar take still lingering in my stream) is inspired by this artwork one of Infantino's best known images of the Caped Crusaders.
Hello everyone and welcome to Part 2 of Batman Year Zero, hope you enjoy, and can I just say thank you all so much for the support for part one, it really means a lot to me. Once again hope you enjoy!
Context: This takes place roughly 4 years after Bruce Wayne left Gotham.

[Somewhere in the Himalayas]
Ra’s al Ghul: Good. You’re getting better, but not good enough!
[Ra’s swings wildly at Bruce forcing him up the stairs]
Bruce Wayne: Then I’ll just have to get better!
[As they keep fighting, someone is watching from the shadows]
Talia al Ghul: Such potential young Wayne has, don’t you think, Ubu? Not to mention he’s incredibly handsome.
Ubu: I’d say he’s a pretty average fighter, but once Ra’s has had his fun...he’ll be dead.
Talia: Not quite. Didn’t you hear?
Ubu: Hear what?
Talia: Ra’s is planning to make him the next Head of the Demon.
Ubu: What?! That hasn’t happened in over 600 years!
[Bruce shifts his gaze noticing Talia and Ubu for the first time, causing Ra’s to get a blow in on his side]
Ra’s: Never lose focus in battle!
Bruce: [Spits out blood] Duly noted…
Ra’s: You should’ve learned that by now in the 2 years you’ve been here.
[As they continue to fight, Bruce is able to get the upper hand and eventually disarms Ra’s and pins him to the ground with his sword at his neck]
Bruce: (panting) Ha...I’ve beat you…
Ra’s: Indeed you have...I knew you would one day...now...do it!
Bruce: [Slightly confused] Do what?
Ra’s: KILL ME! Become the Head of the Demon like you’ve always meant to be!
Bruce/Talia/Ubu: WHAT?!
[Talia and Ubu run out of the shadows]
Talia: Father, no!
Ubu: Sir...you cannot be serious!
Ra’s: Oh, I’m dead serious...it is time for me to move on and for Bruce to take my place. So Bruce, what are you waiting for? Complete your training and kill me!
[Bruce tosses the Katana to the side]
Ra’s: W-What are you doing?
Bruce: When I set out on this journey I promised myself one thing: I would not become a killer.
[Ra’s stands up]
Ra’s: I thought you were ready. You are physically but when it comes to mentally…
Bruce: So...what's next?
Ra’s: Nothing. Talia will escort you to your quarters and later there will be dinner.
Bruce: ….Yes, sir.
[Talia begins to walk Bruce to his room. Halfway there, she speaks…]
Talia: You know, Bruce, you’d be excellent with the League of Assassins.
Bruce: Pardon?
Talia: You heard me.
Bruce: What makes you think that?
Talia: Well, I’d say you’re the best student my father has ever had. Not only do you have the strength…
[Talia creepily strokes his bicep]
Talia: But you also have the determination which so many of our students lack.
Bruce: I...um..thank you?
[They reach his room and Bruce enters the room.]
Bruce: See you tonight?
Talia: (laughing quietly) Yes. See you tonight.
[Bruce shuts the door]
Talia: Wait 20 minutes, then make your move. Do not fail.
[Three assassins emerge from behind her. Talia begins to walk to the dining hall.]
Talia: Such a shame. He would’ve been a perfect candidate for my plan…
[Later that night, Bruce is getting ready for dinner]
Bruce: What to wear...what to wear…
Bruce: (hearing a small scuffle) What was that noise?
[He turns and catches the blade of a Katana]
Bruce: That was a big mistake…
[Laterer in the night]
[Ra’s, Talia, Ubu and other unnamed assassins sitting at a large banquet table.]
Ra’s: I hope everyone's enjoying their meals...I wish Bruce was here, but...he made the wrong choice.
Talia: That he did father.
[The Banquet halls slam open, revealing Bruce with a tattered suit. He throws the three assassins to the ground in front of everyone, then he sits down]
Bruce: Sorry I’m late, everyone. Ran into a little problem.
Ra’s: (Whispering) How did you?
Ras’s: Do not worry...I’m glad you’re here.
Talia: (Whispering) He really is the perfect candidate.

Please leave feedback below as it helps me get better. I wanna know about writing quality, writing style, length, story, etc.
Wow, that was a doozy. I wanted to break it up into two parts, but I figured it’d be best to leave all of the League of Assassins stuff in one big part. Hope you enjoyed, leave your thoughts in the comments, and stay tuned for “Badgers Trying to Open A Pistachio”.
Also, I do not own any of these characters, they are owned by their respective owners. I'm just some dude who likes to play with LEGO.

A side by side comparison. The original Batman the Animated Series action figure next to newly released DC Collectibles version.

a beautiful kitty from a wonderful contact (rootcrop54)! She let me crop & change the colour. Isn't he beautiful!!
Call me crazy, but this looks good. Warner Bros. does a lot of direct-to-DVD Batman feature animation releases. Batman Ninja is no exception except this time, for the first time, they adopted an anime style and boy does it just work. They even concocted a story around how Batman ended up in...
Batman looked across at the jack-in-the-box as the lid popped open. He wasn't surprised to see the skull which appeared, it was the sort of thing he'd come to expect from the Joker and if all he had to deal with was a few of these scattered throughout city, then he had nothing to worry about ...

The requirement of the raffle was to build something superhero related.
PORTO CERVO. Da Gotham City a Porto Cervo. Batman atterra al villaggio Harrods, davanti al porto vecchio, tra le boutique allestite in cubi trasparenti firmate dall’architetto Giò Pagani. E forse non è un caso. Perché dietro la maschera di Batman si nasconde il miliardario Bruce Wayne, uno degli uomini più ricchi e potenti del mondo. Ma questa volta Batman non è in veste di giustiziere. È privo della sua armatura e della sua tecnologia e rivolge lo sguardo al cielo, quasi a invocare con una preghiera la salvezza del mondo. L’installazione, firmata dall’artista italo-australiano Adrian Tranquilli, è curata dalla galleria d’arte Louise Alexander, con sede a Porto Cervo, Parigi e Londra. Titolo dell’opera (già presentata al Palazzo Reale di Milano) “In Excelsis”, nell’alto dei cieli. L’artista ha immaginato tre Batman in preghiera, tre sculture giganti in vetroresina che si stagliano alte nel cielo, davanti all’ormeggio degli yacht. I supereroi, disposti in semicerchio, sono avvolti in un drappo bianco, con le braccia protese in alto, in segno di preghiera. Unica traccia del loro essere supereroi è la famosa maschera che avvolge il volto. Batman è il protagonista delle opere più recenti dell’artista Adrian Tranquilli. Nel cortometraggio “Don’t forget the Joker”, presentato al Macro di Roma, l’eroe dei fumetti ha duellato con il Joker, suo acerrimo nemico, interpretato dal critico d’arte Achille Bonito Oliva.

After many attempts to avoid linear actuators and worm gears, I just wasn't able to pose Batman as dynamically as I wanted without some joints taking too much weight. BUT because I have the scale and and torso set up I had to keep it at the same scale, which meant very limited space for technic, and ALOT of revisions, here's what i landed on. Hope it helps out fellow big-fig builders.
I made this for my friend's birthday. I got really mad cause I smudged the lettering, and for some reason it looks green even though it's black, but it's fiiiineee.
