The Court of Owls is one of Batman's cleverest and most dangerous foes, and now it seems that Absolute Batman is taking a page from their book.

The Absolute Batmobile has the advantage of matching this version of Batman's brutal, violent fighting style. Without the luxury of state-of-the-art Waynetech to fall back on, Bruce spends his days working out and building muscle to land heavy blows on enemies. Likewise, in Dragotta's art, his giant truck is seen knocking cars away with ease, showing that it packs as much of a punch as its driver. Gotham's criminals have no hope of slowing down Batman or his Batmobile thanks to their bulky sizes. High-speed chases are about to reach a new level of intensity as Batman launches into action with his Batmobile.

While some fans might still be wary of this large Batman and his even larger truck, it makes sense for this version of the Dark Knight to have a vehicle of this hulking size. The billionaire Bruce Wayne gets a sleek ride befitting his wealth and status, working-class Bruce feels more at home in a truck. Snyder and Dragotta continue to make inspired changes to Batman's status quo, and the Absolute Batmobile proves to be one of the most daring yet.

Absolute Batman #2 gives fans their full look at the new Batmobile when it arrives on November 13, from DC Comics.
