In a piece of super suave fan art, Batman forces for the first time. This unlikely team, dubbed “the Knights” as a play on their names, is the creation of Dan Hipp, the artistic director for Teen Titans Go. In addition to playfully referencing the heroes’ names, the piece highlights some of the similarities these seemingly disparate heroes share—as well as featuring them dressed to the nines!
Comic fans the world over Black Knight are set to the Dark Knight in the hearts and minds of comic fans the world over, and a new piece shows the three coming together in the most unique way.
In a Tweet, artist is Moon Knight, dressed in a plaid variant of his Mister Knight persona. Finally, on the right is Batman, also wearing a plaid dress suit. The piece has been a smash hit with fans, garnering nearly 5,000 likes and almost 700 retweets.
At first, this combination might seem a little off, but a deeper look shows these three have much in common, beyond the names. Both Moon Knight and Black Knight are known as excellent fighters, but both are also known to have deep personal and psychological issues that sometimes hinder them; much of the same can be said about Batman. In their civilian identities, these three heroes are projected as suave and debonair, and their styles of dress in Dan Hipp’s fan art shows this.
For the first time in comics history, Moon Knight, Black Knight, and Batman come together in a suave piece of fan art that pokes gentle fun at not only their names but their personalities as well.
