Gordon as Batman works because Snyder writes him as a man who knows exactly what he isn't and does it anyway. Capullo's mech suit is all industrial weight and civic authority, the opposite of Bruce's organic terror, and that contrast is the whole point. The Snickers back cover — ranking bubble wrap, binoculars, and a fanny pack as \"tempting\" before dropping three candy bar varieties as the obvious answer — is the most confident candy ad in comics history.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition Notes:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShows wear consistent with age — expect spine stress and corner wear as shown in photos.
