Recently, one of the talented artists working on the film shared some of his illustrations. Ed Natividad is a professional concept artist who's worked on big budget projects like Transformers: Age of Extinction, Man of Steel, andThe Amazing Spider-Man (2012).
"Justice League" Bat-Cycle Concept Art
One piece of Batman's equipment that wasn't shown in Justice League is the Batcycle. The Batcycle wasn't seen in the movie. Instead, Batman relied on his Batmobile, a carrier named "The Flying Fox" and an armored transport nicknamed "Nightcrawler" or "Knight Crawler".Ed Natividad recently shared artwork of the unused cycle and it was picked up by Chris Begley at Batman-News.
I reached out to Ed to find out why the Batcycle wasn't used in the film. "The Batcycle was proposed as a new form of transport for Batman," Natividad said. "However it was superseded in favor of the Knight Crawler. Zack Snyder felt the cycle did not reflect the 'team' dynamic and needed something that would carry at least three of the members."
Begley pointed out that it's very similar to a design shared by production designer Patrick Tatopoulos on Instagram.
The Batcycle was prominently used on the 60's TV show and a variation of it used in the Christopher Nolan film The Dark Knight.
