Except this one has the full support and blessing of the local police force.

A retired soldier/Batman cosplayer has been hired by the police force of Taubaté , Brazil, to, well...

The goal is for the retired military help to combat crimes such as murder and drug trafficking, which have increased in Taubaté mainly in the suburbs...


...also, unless this was just an Engrish'd-up-statement (the page is translated roughly from Brazilian), He will also be searching for and rescuing kidnapped children.


According to the article, this will begin in the next 17 days.

Hmmm...

today's the ninth... plus seventeen makes... 26th. 26th of March, and not the 1st of April.

Guys... holy shit.

This is indeed something else...If only there was others that could actually be super heros, our world would be a cartoon...Except real...

I've always wonder if superheros could be real, this just states that they can be.

I give him two days until he's shot dead by a local gang.

As "awesome" as the idea sounds, I just have a feeling it's...not going to work. At all. Real-life murderers and drug dealers aren't going to drop their guns and cower in fear at the sight of some nutjob in a Halloween costume.

And from a different perspective, actual effective agents aren't going to wear anything to advertise who they are.

They'll sneak up on and kill whoever it is they're after instead of idiotically going "I AM SUPER HERO GUY, POINT YOUR GUNS AT ME!"

On the flipside, if you are a kidnapped child, and then this guy is kneeling down over you and asking if you are alright...

The thing of it is, what with the way things have been going, it's more entertaining to imagine that everyone involved in this is just batshit (lololol) retarded.

Alternatively, this was probably a group decision. Someone out there really really knows what they are doing, and when it gets put that way... ._.

Olllllloohhhhhhhhhhhh the laziness - - - -

this homem morcego story sounds a lot like our very own Super Barrio - not a new concept by any means -

google translate was not very good at translating the thing - but for that Bati-soldado there will be hardly any fisticuffs.....

still it sounds better than the sorry-ish Slovakian Batman

For a doable , possible , probable source of superhero mysticism in real life , with vigilantism, broken bones, justice and violence the Phantom would be a better blueprint........
outside canon thinking please.

Interesting, yet ultimately futile, idea. It's also insane to have Batman dressed up to fight trafficking, even if they're getting rid of that cape.

Really, Bats are kinda cute.

If you want a real-life Batman, theme your costume and gear around snakes. Or spontaneous human combustion.



or dying alone.
