Monolith Showcase Batmobile For Gotham City Chronicles
January 17, 2018 by brennon
Monolith has showcased another model for Batman: Gotham City Chronicles, which will be coming to Kickstarter in February. This time however it isn't a character but the iconic Batmobile.
Inspired by the artwork of David Finch, this version of the Batmobile has a lot in common with the traditional view of it from the likes of the cartoon in the 90s and of course some of the earlier comics. It also has a bit more of a military edge to it though so fans of the tumbler version will probably appreciate it too.
Whilst you wouldn't imagine that there would be room for a vehicle to fit into a game like Gotham City Chronicles, maybe things might get a bit scaled up to allow you to use this in your games. If nothing else, it's a neat Add-On which would add a bit of 3D terrain to the tabletop.
It is a very awesome looking model and I one hopes that it does indeed come in black like this allowing you to paint it IF you want, but otherwise just leave it looking ominous.
What do you make of their Batmobile?

I… I don’t like it. I hope they have an alternate. I would love to have the Batmobile from the Animated Series.
Just as a reminder, the game is based on the comics. Not the films, tv shows, video games or the crunchy nut cereal =)
@badgerthebrave, I would so much rather see this one then.

Sure, let’s take Batmobile from 60’s, Batman from 80’s, Joker from 2017 and Robin from late 90’s…
Overall I think it is a fine model. The front bumper/grill looks a bit strange. The vehicle from the front looks like an owls face. Does their license with DC allow them to draw from all the bat products? Can they draw from the movies, animated, etc. Or is it solely a license for the comics? Is it for the comics since Batman’s creation or is there a time period that this game will cover?
I like it paint the grill gold for the Dredd Nobel?
Looks like a Batmobile to me. There seems to be a bit of a lukewarm response to many of the renders for this game but I’ve been happy with everything I’ve seen so far and am very likely to back this. I’d still like to know more about the gameplay so fingers crossed BoW get an exclusive look at the game prior to the Kickstarter launching. I’m sure you guys have the right connections to make that happen.
Holy Heroclix Batmobile Batman!
And I shall christian thee Bat Max. Two men enter; one Batman leaves.
And just think, you can play with it “in the game” and “out of the game.” =D
WoW, i wasn”t expecting a vehicle un the kickstarter, I suppose It Will be An addon . I love It, looks great, similar to the Arkham series batmobile, less tank and more car like. Keep Up the good work!
It is indeed like looking at a cross between the one from the 90s films and the tumbler. Still, I don’t think it equates to a good final look.
I doubt Ill go in on this kickstarter. The quality of the renders has just been poor. Poor for Batman as well a Monolith compared to what they have produce before. It is all just so… meh.
Wow I like it. Not everything has been to taste, especially seen with out any paint, this one looks like it will be fun to paint and still look nice.
Can’t wait for this KS to hit!
