They're re-inventing Batman, so it's not like this really falls into the timeline of the films (or the comics, for that matter). And even if it did, Batman didn't start off with a yellow bat symbol. The first one was more like the symbol they are using, and the yellow one came later (when the colors were deplorably blue and grey).

And as Frank Miller suggested, it doesn't make sense to have a big yellow target on your chest, if you're Batman.

if it doesnt make sense to have a yellow bat signal then why was he given one? i have no idea about the comic books i never read them and dont know much about the stories or costumes.

In comics, most costumes don't make sense. Batman's costume has always been pretty conventional, but even he couldn't escape the colorful, campy, "public service announcement" direction comic books ventured for a time. For some reason, they gave him a little color, despite the fact that he's always been a rather dark character. Tim Burton's Batman films were released while Batman himself wore the yellow symbol (in the books), so it seemed Burton opted to retain the yellow symbol, but shift the rest of the color to black, to cover all his bases. After all, black on yellow is a pretty impressive stark color shift.

When you think about it, though, Batman himself would never have given himself such a flamboyant symbol. The idea is to dwell in shadow, and remain low key - and yellow just doesn't do it. Batman is not a flashy character, and it seems like the Batman Begins crew is pushing Batman toward the darkness, where he belongs.



Your Puuuur-fect Movie Companion!
I agree Sleezy! Another thing new about the costume is how they've made the neck area more flexible. If you've seen Batman fighting in the previous 4 movies, you realise how stiff he was at the neck. That was because his cowl was one full rubber piece down to the bottom of his neck. The main costume material has been changed as well, notice that in the pictures, he's able to bend his knee in such fashion - I doubt that was possible with the first few costumes. We should be able to see a more agile Batman in this film - and hopefully a wider variety of martial arts moves.

Though it would be funny if he were to install some high intensity lights into that symbol. That way he could run about in the shadows, and at the right moment he could flash his enemies and startle them.









And I know how wrong that sounds...
