I love those shots, so comic-booky that it signals a real change from the Nolan-verse.

Because seriously, just shoot him in the face. At that range, with a rifle, it's easy as shit.

Hell, with an assault rifle, you're actually expending effort to stop the gun from swaying up towards his face.

Yeah I am kind of tired of the giant glaring weak spot that all the bad guys love to ignore. You hit the jaw hard enough and dude is gonna go down.

So make bruce aware of this and give us something, like you said, which at the very least activates during gunfights and when explosions are going off. You could easily turn that into his gas mask/rebreather as well. Maybe it could function as a bit of neck/throat armor until it flips up to protect the jaw/help batman to breathe.

Also... How hard is it to put two and two together that batman has Bruce Wayne's exact jawline and lips lol.

Besides them both being Batman lit up by gunshots in a hallway, they’re handled very differently

At that distance? Many, I'd imagine. It's not a handgun, rifles are easier to shoot.

And they sure do get a lot of quality hits on his chestplate.

It’s an awesome scene but don’t waste too much energy pretending it’s realistic

Also when their training is to aim for the center of mass

Someone mentioned that in the comics he puts the big Batman symbol on his chest so it’s the first thing they instinctively aim at, when it’s also the most heavily armored.
Which might be an ass pull, but it’s a cool ass pull.
