The use of this blue is especially egregious for a KJ Batman figure, in my opinion, given that Bollard drew the cape and cowl as black with blue highlights.
While in shadow, yes. But when Batman was in the light, it was clearly the blue cape and cowl.
Good point, doc. I had forgotten about that sequence.
Still, the coloring of the blue was a lot deeper than what's seen on the tie. If DC insists on painting Batman blue I wish they'd at least use a midnight or navy blue, instead of that light color they tend to use.
