Batman Forever Fleer Metal Trading Card #43: "Fugitive", with artwork of Batman in the Sonar Suit hanging from a building ledge. I do really like that many of these cards have Sonar Suit Batman running around Gotham, something that doesn't happen in the film.

(Front Side) Batman Forever Fleer Metal Trading Card #43: "Fugitive", with artwork of Batman in the Sonar Suit hanging from a building ledge.

(Back Side) Batman Forever Fleer Metal Trading Card #43: "Fugitive". The card back description reads:
"Batman is running, but time is slowly wearing him down; when he is finally forced to stop and rest, the truth of his past will be waiting. Of all his struggles, this will be his greatest. On that day, The Dark Knight will face his past."

Rare promotional/publicity photo of Michael Keaton as Batman from Batman Returns. Looking at his face here, I wonder if this photo of Keaton's Batman was possibly used as reference for the main John Alvin poster art with the 3 floating heads?

Photos of a 1990 Ben Cooper Child Sized Rubber Batman Mask. While not Movie branded, or having any official Batman branding really, this is unmistakably a Michael Keaton 1989 Movie style Batman Mask. Also the back looks open, so this also could maybe be used for a Batgirl costume

If you ever wanted to cosplay that weird Batman/Joker Hybrid Cyborg from Future's End for whatever reason, here's the mask for you.

Photos of a weird Ben Cooper Flip Around Mask from 1990. One side is Michael Keaton's Batman from Batman (1989), the other side is Jack Nicholson's Joker. This is definitely one of the weirder items I've seen relating to the movies.

"Has anybody ever told you that you have a SERIOUS IMPULSE-CONTROL PROBLEM??"
- The Riddler (Jim Carrey), from Batman Forever (1995) #QuoteOfTheDay

Screenshot from Batman Forever, featuring The Riddler snapping at Two-Face for firing his gun randomly, saying "Has anybody ever told you that you have a SERIOUS IMPULSE-CONTROL PROBLEM??"

Production Photo from Batman & Robin, with Poison Ivy and Bane meeting back up with Mr. Freeze at their now shared Lair. Love how there's a spotlight on Bane here despite him only taking Ivy's coat and handing her the mutant plant in this scene.

A piece of Minimalist style bust artwork of Two-Face flipping his coin, from the Batman Forever style guide. Man, Harvey translated incredibly well to this art style.

Packaging photos for a Ben Cooper Batman Mask & Cape set from 1989. Despite it's comic logo branding, this is actually a Batman (1989) Movie based set, with the Yellow Oval from the 1989 Batsuit being used on the cape.

Six days until BATMAN: REVOLUTION — and did you know that the role of "Gotham Globe Copy Boy" was already in the 1989 movie? One line in one scene with Alexander Knox; actor uncredited anywhere, so far as I can find.

Dive into life at the Globe when REVOLUTION releases, Oct. 21!

2 good alternatives would be the Rubies Batman Movie Deluxe Overhead Mask with Cowl, which is their currently available Latex Keaton Style Cowl, or the Rubies Arkham City Deluxe Batman Cowl which has LONG ears and is a logo-less option.

It seems Rubies didn't make a Latex Mask/Cowl to go w/ their officially licensed Michael Keaton Batman Costumes from The Flash (2023). Instead they offer this VERY underwhelming Half Mask. The guy modeling it does not look like he's having a good time. At least the ears are long.

Black and White Promotional/Publicity Photo from Batman Forever, with Val Kilmer's Batman spreading his wings. That seemingly infinite darkness Batman is "creating" as a result of how big the cape is and this being B&W, is just an absolutely awesome visual.

Behind The Scenes Photos from Batman Returns, featuring the Batskiboat in the water filled miniature set for the Gotham Sewers. Given the rain pant leggings on the crew here, I wonder how wet people got during the filming of these scenes.

Huge agree!

The 2nd pic I found on MovieStillsDB & is attributed to Batman Forever, though to my knowledge they never did a green screen version of the GCPD Roof set for that film. BTW that image only shows up when you have an acc. on there & log in & the link doesn't work otherwise

The first BTS Photo I found on wikipedia, which I traced back to a now deleted 2019 tweet from Bruce Thomas's Twitter:

This unseen Schumacher Bat Signal is most likely the light source coming from behind Batman at the start of the ad, with a different designed Bat Signal seen in the night sky coming from a rooftop off in the distance.
