    Yeah, Bane looks sick..intense. Want to see him in action so badly, to correspond the image with the performance (of course i've seen the spy vids/shots, but I mean finished product and truly *in the moment*). I personally, am optimistic about Hardy's performance... think it's gonna be KILLER.

    As for Bats, lookin' good ~ as ever. Quite curious about the gadget. It's true his suit appears a little different, what a tease these guys are putting up such a cloaked image lol. Shrouded in mystery, love it though! Then, it's just his style...

    We're so close to the full-length trailer I can taste it! Tastes like awesomeness (haha). How excited are you guys? A glorious day it shall be~

      Hardy s a CLASS act , and his acting skills have never been in question ! ( i know i keep going on about WARRIOR but there is a scene in the movie right at the end , i wont spoil it but it was heart breaking stuff , Oscar calibre stuff ) But its going to be a huge challenge for him to get a performance across under that mask !

      Yeah i pray for a NEW suit ( que all the HATE = ) But i am not getting my hopes up as the cowl and the gloves are from TDK suit , but there is something going on with the sleeves , so maybe !

      Yep, Dec 16 th = EPIC for All Bat fans !

        I don't think it will be much of a challenge as it will come natural to Hardy. But that's just me. - I loved Warrior , especially the ending. So pissed how poorly it did in the box office. I promoted the shit out of the movie ,as I am in MMA. Me and my class set a booth up for the weekend at the movie theatre to promote.

    So i just watched WARRIOR again ( AMAZING film , must see if you havent ) but i realised Hardy has a tatoo on the exposed shoulder on the pic , so its either been photoshoped out or could be under a huge amount of make up wich could explain the marks , irritation around the shoulder !

      Like someone said in one the previous comments , they use dermablend it is a thick make up that covers it up like it was never there.(Also this stuff leaves no mess) - http://www.youtube.com/watc...

    So both pics have been revealed !

    I am loving BANE those eyes are intense crazy , also think the mask is looking killer !

    I am not gonna celebrate a NEW Batman suit just yet ( @ One Eye ) its unclear at this point , but there is a possibility = ) And as for that gizmo he is holding , very SCI-FI ?

    We will find out more on the 27 th Nov when the mag is released !

    If Bane has no Pain, he must have an Achilles' heel (eyes maybe). you can see a bulb in the 'gadget' and maybe it's an UV rays illuminator for these fearsome eyes. (sorry, English is not my native language)

    Hardy does look bigger in the picture. I really think that they slightly photoshoped this picture.

      trust me, every picture of someone you ever see in any magazine is photoshopped

    Just heard that Bane has the CIPA disease, wich makes him unable to feel pane. the mask is to provide him naxolon, and helps him to normalize his biofunctions like sense of pain, breathing, and resting. That's the real thing. Then Scarecrow offers him some kind of altered naxolone, with nasty side effects that makes him bigger and stronger (The venom)  Sounds plausible to me

      Cool explanation, dude! I like it! You figure it out by yourself?  But i've read that CIPA causes mental retardation...

        remember my theory like 2 months ago with fear gas/venom for bane! i knew it

        I read that too, in comicbookmovies, or other forum, I don't remember where, i think is pausible, and about side effects like mental retardation, anger or other stuff, that just make it more interesting i think

    Hey, am I crazy or are batman's arms missing the ninja-blade things that he shot at the joker in TDK?

    Bane looks like a fucking mutant, his skin is sick... he looks definitely bigger!

    @Ebo, i think you'll get what you wanted so bad: a NEW BATSUIT! Looks more leatherish... definitely looks different! And what is that mosquito electronic repellent on his hands? :)

    What is Batman holding? A weapon? It better be non-lethal or else he would cross the line he made for himself in Batman Begins!

    Uhm... Guys this is a different batman suit. The arm gauntlets are not there - His left arm I wasn't so sure and you should be able to see them on his right arm *IF* they were there ...but they are not.

    This is not fair...they covered part of batman. They are not reavealing the covers according to the quantity of votes submitted as they said x-(

    Bane has now 100932 votes and Batman has 96926 votes, still, Batman is on top?!?!?!

    I may be superstitious but I do believe when the Bane cover gets revealed before Batman's then something very bad will happen to Batman in TDKr and the trailer will show us that.

    Nolan is soooo brilliant I've never seen these kinda brilliant advertising (TDK & TDKR) for any movie or product before.. He really knows how to keep his fan going crazy & excited for sooo.. long and till the last moment... Now 8 months to go... Only God/Nolan knows what we'll witness ahead.... lets hear it for Noaln!! [clap,clap... clap]

      Nolan:Look what I've done to the world with a few cameras and a couple of photos...And you know what I noticed? Nobody get's excited when things go according to a plan they expect...Introduce a little genius...Establish your own movie advertising style and everyone goes CRAAAAAZYYYYY!!!

    I don't know how it started... but at this point of time Batman (The Dark Knight) is literally rising :)
    Batman is leading by 7500 votes. And his new gun/gadget looks f**king awesome...

    Batman is gaining momentum.

    It looka like Batman has a new gadget.

      Batman is going to win. I'm gonna guess it's the start of the day over in England or something.

      I suspect the gadget might be the reason for this momentum.. people eager to get a better look at it.

        Yes that is what i'm thinking too
