Batman 1972

Now that Christopher Nolan's Dark Knight series is over, what's the next step for the Batman story? Let's try a low budget 70s style grindhouse film. Here are three samples of concept art by Francesco Francavilla. He calls it the grooviest comic book of 2013 that didn't happen.

That's a real shame because the premise has serious potential. You can see more samples here.

P.S. If you like these illustrations, then check out Mr. Francavilla's re-imagining of The Avengers as Vikings.

Reminds me much of the "computing center" at my alma mater:
http://www.rpi.edu/about/campustour/vcc/index.html

It had formerly been a large stone chapel when that part of the campus was part of an adjacent seminary. It always struck me a bit ironic that the geeks at a technical school now "pay worship" to the computer housed therein.

Mare Nostrum is indeed "our sea", and it was the name given to the Mediterranean sea during the roman and bizantine periods. Therefore, it was considered appropriate for a supercomputer in a city on the Mediterranean coast.
