Although BATMAN V SUPERMAN: DAWN OF JUSTICE was absent from Warner Bros’ Comic Con line-up, many think there might be an announcement or presentation of some sorts for the Zack Snyder film. However, Batman will still be featured heavily at SDCC as part of the character’s 75th anniversary. Warner Bros. and DC have put on display various Batman costumes for the anniversary celebration, one of which being the cape and cowl Ben Affleck will be wearing in BATMAN V SUPERMAN: DAWN OF JUSTICE. DC co-publisher Dan Didio tweeted this photo from SDCC, giving us an up-close look at Affleck’s Bat Cowl.

It isn’t as blue and grey as some led us to believe, but we also can’t see the full suit. It does look like the cowl is pretty stiff and doesn’t allow a lot of movement for the head. In my opinion the cowl also has a more comic book feel than the ones Christian Bale wore for the Christopher Nolan films.

I’m not promising anything, but many do expect BATMAN V SUPERMAN: DAWN OF JUSTICE to make a San Diego Comic Con appearance in Hall H on Saturday night when Warner Bros. and DC have their big reveal for their upcoming projects. Our JoBlo.com crew at SDCC is on the ground and ready to bring you all the exciting news from the event, so be sure to check back on Saturday to see if there are any new details on BATMAN V SUPERMAN: DAWN OF JUSTICE.

BATMAN V SUPERMAN: DAWN OF JUSTICE will hit theaters on May 6, 2016.
