hey there's a new section on Gotham Cable News called "Batman Sightings" in the top right corner. it says submit a picture or video of Batman if you have it. i'm guessing this is going to be similar to whysoserious.com where people uploaded themselves as the Joker, except this is batman. it also said "if you can find the real batman, send it in." maybe there's a special thing if you get christian bale lol

Dominos is starting a promotion where their pizza boxes have been rebranded to be Gotham City Pizzeria boxes, and each one has a piece of batman's costume to cut out and tie on I think there's a mask, gauntlets, a belt, and a chestpiece. So, there's your costume for this assignment

Some dominos stores seem to have them already, but others do not. Best to check before ordering. One costume piece per box. I'm gonna stop by a store, see if I can convince them to give me a few extras.
