This is still my favourite Easter Egg in Man of Steel. It was a sneaky way of establishing that we have an older experienced Batman already in this universe. Prior to Man of Steel being released to cinemas Zack Snyder and others had said that Superman would pave the way, that Batman would feel comfortable putting on the cowl, he would feel comfortable in his bat ears because of Superman. I thought that that meant we would have a Batman in his late 20 early 30s similar to Henry Cavills Superman, a young inexperienced Batman, another Batman Begins (man am I glad we are not getting another origin story). Once Man of Steel was seen as successful and they knew they were going ahead with the DCCU plans they revealed that the rumours of an older established Batman were true and they announced the casting of Ben Affleck. When Man of Steel was released on DVD/Blu-ray people were able to find the Keep Calm and Call Batman poster revealing that Batman had been hinted as an established older vigilante/urban legend all along in Man of Steel. I love this Easter Egg. What was your favourite Easter Egg in Man of Steel?
