The Dark Knight’s been through a lot of wild variations
through the years. Pilgrim. Rainbow. Drug
addict. But a new photo project from Argentina re-imagines Bruce Wayne
without his most important special ability: a bottomless wallet. Can you still
strike fear into criminals with a garbage bag cape, a fanny pack and a pair of
Speedos?

points at a gallery of images—created by creative collective M.A.F.I.A.—depicting
a Batman who lives in a poverty that’s light-years away from Wayne Manor. The
long ears on the makeshift Bat-cowl recall the original Bob Kane version of the
Caped Crusader but the fancy gadgets and vehicles are all gone. This broke
Batman leads to all kinds of questions, for me. Is he depressed? Happy? Showered? Whether he is any of those things or not, this Batman is fearsome in a totally different kind of way.
