Azrael (comics), CD Comics, initially Batman series, October 1992 f. See Wikipedia article for bibliographic complexities and a key image.[1]
After the defeat of Bruce Wayne/Batman by a steroidal hulk, "Bane," the Batman mantle is handed on to a new character, Azrael, who grows increasingly psychotic as the series continues. Relevant here, Azrael augments the traditional Batman regalia with mechanistic (and sharp) high-tech armor. Additional images here.[2] Batman, of course, never goes away, but the shift on at least one continuum from Batman to Azrael may be significant as a guage of the move from the Modern to the post-Modern.
