55 Slick Superhero Innovations

Thank the social media Gods, because they've bestowed us with a gift: 'Batman vs. Superman' director Zack Snyder has tweeted the first glimpse of Ben Affleck as Batman from the set of the reboot. The shadowy shot shows Affleck, or what appears to be Affleck, dressed in head-to-toe Batman gear while standing next to an impressive update on the iconic Batmobile.

However, the most extraordinary thing about the photo is definitely Affleck's sinewy muscles. Be still my beating heart! His buff physique is sure to silence any nay-sayers and skeptics who doubt his superhero abilities.

After Christopher Nolan's 'Dark Knight,' there's no question that this film has some big shoes to fill; however, judging by this photo, Snyder (and Affleck!) are up to the task.
