Warning: Spoilers for Green Lantern #15Move over, Batmobile; Batman Has a high-tech new ride that puts his usual mode of transportation to shame. Batman’s latest technological feat is uncovered in the unlikeliest of places, and with speed that rivals the Flash, it could be a valuable asset to the Dark Knight. However, its life-threatening downside prevents it from being as useful as it could be.
In the preview for Green Lantern #15 by Jeremy Adams and Fernando Pasarin Hal Jordan and Wally West set out on a mission to retrieve Intel from the Hall of Order. Having their powers drained by Amanda Waller’s Amazo Task Force, they need their own vehicles to reach their destination. Luckily, Hal knows where to find Batman’s top-secret hangar that houses a prototype Bruce has been working on. This prototype has been revealed to be called The BatwolfAnd it’s a sight to see.
Batman’s awesome new plane has the potential to be One of the fastest vehicles in the DC Universe – except it has one key weakness holding it back..
Batman’s “Batwolf” prototype is at risk of exploding
His speed comes at a dangerous cost
The Batwolf’s design certainly looks cool, but it has a deadly downside that wards off most pilots. According to Hal, upon acceleration, it can explode. That’s right: Batman’s prototype plane is a death trap waiting to happen. Piloting it can be fatal, hence why it is abandoned in a remote hangar. The Batwolf is so dangerous that Oracle intervenes to stop Hal from flying it, although Hal manages to circumvent this and fly it regardless. Green Lantern risks everything to hitch a ride on Batman’s plane, and considering what it’s capable of, it’s easy to understand what he’s ready for.
The Batwolf may be flawed, but if Batman Can fix it to fly without exploding, it may be his greatest invention yet.
Although the Batwolf is a liability for Batman, it cannot be denied that the reward may be worth the risk. Despite his tendency to explode, The Batwolf boasts astonishing speed that could put it on par with speedsters. As shown in the preview, it moves fast enough to keep up with The Flash’s new bike, which he was using during the Absolute Power event to accommodate his lack of super-speed. The Batwolf is a game-changing upgrade that lets Batman travel at a speed he never thought possible. The best part is that Batman can have even more vehicles than it has stashed away.
The Batwolf may not be Batman’s only secret vehicle
Could Batman be hiding more prototypes?
The island Hal locates is said to be just one of Bruce Wayne’s many islands, which means There is a chance that the other islands contain facilities that hold prototypes like the Batwolf. After all, while he’s known for his combat prowess, Batman’s intelligence often gets overlooked as his most impressive “superpower.” He’s built a vast arsenal of gadgets and vehicles, with the Batwolf being the latest in a long line of inventions, so it’s reasonable to assume he has more hidden away. The Batwolf may be flawed, but if Batman Can fix it to fly without exploding, it may be his greatest invention yet.
