    Color is relative, though. Yes they used dark blue paint but in the context of the scene, his cape is black and lit by a bright light.

    I know TAS is considered part of the DCAU

    But I still like htinking of it as a standalone thing where Batman is just as the center for all craziness in the universe

    Also I really prefer the series pre-redesign

    Also as I was reading Ms. Marvel I wondered how her family would react if they knew everything she was trying to do. Coping with her new powers, saving lives, staying true to herself in her own way

    I thought they'd ultimately be proud if she really tried to communicate it

    Then I realized she's Peter Parker

    Kamala Khan, Ms. Marvel, is the new Spider-Man

    It's a blue-black

    You know because all black is actually coloured

    Theoretically there is black-black but practically all blacks are really dark tones of red or blue or whatever

    and thus they highlighted it blue because it is a blue-black

    You know what would be cool

    if whenever they used All-Black the Necrosword in the future they used the darkest digital black they possibly can, you know literally make it a void on the page with as close to zero other pigments as they can

    That'd look wicked

    When I think of things that DC does better than Marvel recently, the DCAU's on the top of my list. Maybe even the only thing on my list.

    The only time Batman's cape was blue on the DCAU was in the bit making fun of silver-age Batman cartoons.

    Bzzt, wrong.

    I got downright giddy when old Bruce walks out in the Grey Ghost costume in Batman Beyond.

    She's the latest in a long line of Peter Parkers. Nova (Richard Rider), Quasar, Speedball, Darkhawk, Gravity, Ultimate Peter Parker, Miles Morales, and Nova (Sam Alexander).

    Hopefully she'll be treated better than most of those guys though.

    If they lightened all the other black areas, including text and speech bubbles, so that they were just slightly lighter than the sword itself, that could really make it look great.

    God, Grey Ghost! There's another DCAU character the comics could do awesome stuff with. Like, instead of a TV character, have him be a real costumed vigilante who fought alongside the JSA during the Golden Age! He could be buds with Wildcat and Dr. Mid-nite! Why isn't this a thing!?
