I like black and gray with blue highlights overall, but a midnight blue and gray combo is also very effective. The blue and gray works best on the comic page, but I prefer it to at least be a royal blue and not light sky blue. The Super Friends Batman actually had a pretty deep blue that worked really well. The later Mego Batmen used a similar blue that is very striking with the gray and black trunks.
Never much of a fan of all black, although it does work in the movies. I HATED the late 90s comic costume that tried to look like the movie suits, with it's dull gray-as-black look. Just didn't work in comics well.
On the animated front, the black with blue highlights works best. See BTAS, JL/JLU and The Batman. The all black (with a touch of gray) cowl, etc of TNBA was just too streamlined and dull overall.
But if DC flashes back to earlier in Batman's carreer, if it's appropriate I want to see that blue and gray! That is the Batman I grew up with, and I hate to see it forgotten. Although I think it will get a boost next month with the new Brave and Bold toon!!!

Call me a product of my time, but I love the blue and gray. Or in the case of the Filmation cartoons, blue and light blue (or Filmation blue I call it). I grew up with this Batman. The only black I like was the inside of his cape. I prefer the outfit with the gray bodysuit and the blue cowl, cape, shorts, gloves, and boots. The TV series, the Filmation cartoons and the SuperFriends were my first starts with the character.
Cheers.Comment

Me, I think all black makes more sense. He's supposed to be "The Dark Knight" so black just looks better. But I sure do like the black and grey too. All about the Bob Kane look of him.sigpic

Black and grey. I saw a John Byrne drawing of Batman in an old Action Comics (I think) back during the Man of Steel reboot where he went straight black and grey (no blue highlights), and it just looked great."It's sad that governments are chiefed by the double tongues. There is iron in your words of death for all Comanche to see, and so there is iron in your words of life. No signed paper can hold the iron. It must come from men. The words of Ten Bears carries the same iron of life and death. It is good that warriors such as we meet in the struggle of life... or death. It shall be life."Comment

In the 1970s, when I first saw the early Batman stories with the Black and Gray and no oval on the shirt, that was my favorite.
But, now that the Black and gray with no oval has become more common, I'm kind of partial to the Blue gray and yellow oval.Comment

I thought Adam's West's Batman was purple...not blue.
I like black and gray...I don't want any bloody blue on my Batman.

Blue and the grey for me. Never cared for the all black movie versions."Crayons taste like purple!"Comment

Black and Grey
Funny thing - the same thing happened to Spider-Man. He was supposed to be black and red, but it went blue pretty fast.
It's sort of endearing now, to think of the limitations of the medium back in the day."If you take a dog which is starving and feed him and make him prosperous, that dog will not bite you. This is the primary difference between a dog and a man."

It seemed to vary a lot due to lighting. It definitely is toward the purple end of the blue spectrum though. Adam's short boots always bothered me.I thought Adam's West's Batman was purple...not blue.
