Last Friday, as part of our week-long “Batman: An Animated Celebration,” we offered fans a chance to win the complete Batman: The Animated Series on DVD. All they had to do was snap a photo of themselves recreating the iconic Batman: The Animated Series logo pose.

We call this sort of thing “cape and cowling” and we created a #capeandcowling hashtag to use when tweeting your photos. As always, you didn’t disappoint us, with many of you taking the concept to the extreme. We enjoyed all of your photos, and unsurprisingly, we found it very difficult to choose our three favorites. (A few of you submitted photos that were absolutely adorable, but didn’t adhere to our rules, so in turn we had to rule those ones out.)

Above are our three winners, along with our reasons for choosing them. Our thanks and gratitude to everyone who participated and congratulations to our “cape and cowling” champs. Without you, Gotham would be a pretty quiet place. See you next time!
