Besides, Batman is clearly a boxer briefs man. Probably with a blue steel cup.
I can go with that. Confort AND display, with enough control to keep the bits from waggling around while fighting the Joker.
Now you can luxuriate in a nice jail cell, but if your hand touches metal, I swear by my pretty flowered bonnet, I will end you.

The generation that could change the world is still looking for its car keys.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I'm thinking a carbon fiber cup. Or maybe Kevlar or carbon nanotube. If it's metal I'ma gonna hafta go with titanium.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

There's nothing nano about that man's tube.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Wouldn't titanium pinch?

Hey. New board.
Poster makes me want the movie, BatGut or not.
Alibelle is me on the Love Actually storyline in question.
I have no opinion on Batman's underwear except that boxers are obviously right out.

They make martial arts cups out of metal, so I think they've worked around that issue.
Okay, I don't know if I'm twelve, exactly, but I can't stop thinking of kicking Batman in the nuts. I wonder if Batgirl ever did.

If she did, he'd say, "Ow. Not bad, but too far to the left, try again."
edit: No, he wouldn't say Ow. He'd just go a little more stoic for a few seconds, then tell her to try again.

I think he'd look at her with dewy-eyed pride, and then walk away like he'd taught her some deep lesson. He wouldn't drop until she was out of earshot.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
but I can't stop thinking of kicking Batman in the nuts. I wonder if Batgirl ever did.
Didn't Catwoman do this in the second movie? With a large resounding clank?

I have many reactions to that first statement, none of which is "they've worked around that issue." Or put another way, how many non-martial artist do you suppose opt for the titanium jock strap?
