Lil Formers #105: The Batpod

Just a sketch this week guys. I am actually on the road in Anaheim at the American Library Association’s annual conference promoting UDON, so I only have a small sketchbook with me for art. Sorry that I’m not as great by hand as my usual digital stuff .

If you’re wondering what the Batpod is, it’s the new vehicle for the Batman sequel, The Dark Knight. It’s sort of a weird bike type thing. here are some pics.

    lol, nice one. I hated the new batmobile and also this one. So that strip brought an extra smile to my face. :)

  2. Shar

    Hahahaha, I could SO see that happen in a comedy spinoff!

  3. X-hog

    apparently batman learns physics the hard way.

    “Sorry that I’m not as great by hand as my usual digital stuff.”

    I thought that it looked quite good. Should do the hand drawn stuff more often. Mixes things up a bit. Good job.

    Hahaha! That’s awesome - I had the exact same thought the first time I saw the Batpod.

  6. Tobias

    reminds me of the words I here from my girlfrind since she watched the Incredibles… Comicbook heroes with capes live a dangerous life ^^ ….well I love this one!

  7. Thyunda

    Women thinking of becoming pregnant? That must be one jolty ride….

  8. Optimus Convoy

    don’t worry about the colors matt, it reminds me a too funny scene of The Incredibles XD

  9. screamer of sorts

    ooo ow thats gottoa hurt

  10. ZoshuaX

    Haha!! This hand drawn art is almost as good as the digital if you look at it in a different point of view. XD

  11. megatronkicksass

    ok??

  12. Leon

    laughs out loud your hand drawn works great lol, that will teach batman to get a shorter cape for motorcycle driving =D

    I not only love Transformers, but I’m a huge Batman fan, so I have mixed feelings. On the one hand, I can’t help feeling a little insulted. On the other hand, this is Hee-Haw-Larious!!! Overall, I think you should do more. Maybe one featuring Superman, or a DC/Marvel crossover? I’d love to see your version of a meeting between Batman and Spiderman (see ItsJustSomeRandomGuy on Youtube for suggestions). Keep up the good work!

  14. Mr.J

    HA!Take that Bat-freak!

  15. starscreamsgirl

    It probably can store that many Mp3’s…I’d hate to see what Batman looks like AFTER he comes out from under that wheel!

  16. advs14u2nv

    i got my ipod 2 Christmases ago and I’ve got a bit of a Batman obsession so i named my iPod “Batpod” so this one is really funny to me… although my Batpod can hold way more than 5,000 mp3’s but it’s still funny never the less…

  17. Optimus crapper

  18. moonymoonlight

  19. Bladed Maximus

    Batmobile lost a wheel, and Joker got away! :D

  20. Zdenek

    Poor Batty. XD

    That comic reminds me of that scene from The Incredibles.

  21. rangersam

    yays bat man finaly gats what he deseves. a nice,long visit to the hospital. or even beter,he could end up pushin dasies!?HA!SERVES HIM RIGHT FOR INTERUPTING MY TV TIME WITH THAT GARBAGE!!!!!!

  22. ZeroG

    Well,that’s what happens when you wear long capes

  23. Lode

    Let’s see…

    If the comic book Watchmen by Alan Moore and the Pixar movie “The Incredibles are of any use in designing a superhero costume whatsoever, then poor Batman should have fallen prey to this years ago.

  24. Kira

    That was pretty funny, i might go see the dark night because of this strip

  25. Kira

    Did anyone know there is going to be a Watchman movie?

  26. jaganar

    * aaaaaaaaaaaflek *

  27. Mrs.Martinez2011

  28. mrs.Bumblebee

    That would be me probably, with the cape getting stuck and the whole ordeal.

  29. Mrs.Martinez2011

  30. Rodimus/Hotrod'sgirl

    You can say that again, because it’s true!!!! :P

  31. Rezuri

    HA! I’m do glad I’m not the only one who was thinking about this during the bike scenes.

  32. thunderwing

    and the batman was found by the commisioner, and if u all saw the ending of batman the dark knight or wat ever the second batman movie’s name is the police gave him a good sleep in a coffin cuz he was too damaged to be saved

  33. thunderwing

    and i agree with screamer of sorts

  34. thunderwing

    and those were some really comic like last words

  35. bob_saget

    Also, if he hits one little pothole, the front tire belt sands his freakin face clean off.
