Post pictures of cartoons/movies that have been redrawn in a different style. A good example would be an image of the South Park characters done anime style.

"Alternative art, although I do not have a dictionary defined definition, is art that intends to reflect its original design/theme but different art techniques, themes, styles or other varying "twists" are added to make the art original and "alternative""

Gotham 1459?
I'd love read that. Marvel 1602 was pretty okay, but BATMAN? Fuck yeah.

Two face is fucking awesome!

You should also post this to r/Batman, if you haven't already :D

Batman doesn't kill, though so why is it bloody?

[–]SolidSean 7 points8 points ago

Because everyone was bloody in 1459. It was the bloody middle ages.

[–]piisnotthree 1 point2 points ago

He may not kill, but he will cause bleeding.

Mafioso: "A fall from this height won't kill me!"

Batman: "That's the plan" drops him

Batman will cause you some serious hurt. He is good enough to score a hit without hitting vitals.

Carrying a sword that size and not trying to kill seems like it would be counter productive.

[–]Jumin 1 point2 points ago

Intimidation

[–]FrisianDude 0 points1 point ago

Why? If he's a decent swordsman -which he has to be being a Batcestor- he can wound quite well without killing with that.

[–]Pacifist_Fred 0 points1 point ago

You're probably right, it could be done... But making big sweeping cuts and lopping of arms is out of the question so what's the point if you can't cleave heads and dismember bitches!

[–]FrisianDude 0 points1 point ago

can't dismember bitches with a sword anyway. Things like skin, tendons, muscles and bones get in the way. :U

[–]Pacifist_Fred 0 points1 point ago

Too bad :(.

[–]FrisianDude 1 point2 points ago

:D

Perhaps it's someone else's. Medieval Batman wouldn't use a sword anyway. He'd have, like, clockwork gadgets and a Matchlock-powered grappling hook.

[–]FrisianDude -1 points0 points ago

or he'd have a sword.

Batman killed shitloads of people in Detective Comics, actually.

[–]Pacifist_Fred 1 point2 points ago

Earth-Two Batman. So different Batman.

[–]btguinn 0 points1 point ago

Wasn't Earth-2 Batman basically just Detective Comics Batman with a few retcons?

[–]Pacifist_Fred 1 point2 points ago

[–]btguinn 1 point2 points ago

So, DC Comics timelines seem to be exercises in inanity, I've come to realize.

[–]Pacifist_Fred 1 point2 points ago

Quite.

[–]Maxjes 2 points3 points ago

Two Face as Gwain and the Green Knight is such a great idea.

[–]nucca35 2 points3 points ago

Needs more Harley Quinn.

[–]DoktorLuciferWong 1 point2 points ago

Oh dang. This guy draws art for Magic cards!

[–]stupidnoob25 1 point2 points ago

This canon would be amazing! Medieval Batman needs to happen!

[–]truncatedChronologis 1 point2 points ago

This is the first time medeival batman hasn't looked completely dorky.

[–]FrisianDude 1 point2 points ago

Ooohhh my. Especially the Jester and Twoface. Lovely lovely love.
