As many critics have noted in their reviews this week, Matt Reeves’ strategy when setting out to create his standalone “Batman” film seemed to be to go as dark as possible. With the gloomy Robert Pattinson as the titular character, alongside a disturbing Paul Dano as The Riddler, viewers can expect one of the most unsettling depictions yet of the crime-riddled Gotham City.

A wide range of luxury fashion brands were smart to jump onto the anticipated premiere this week, launching their own limited-edition capsules and collections inspired by the new comic film. Lanvin’s Spring 2022 collection feautures Batmobile-clad bucket hats and Batman-embossed phone pouches, while a lineup from Fossil brings everyone’s favorite heroes and villains onto premium timepieces.

But of course, other companion merch came in more expected forms, such as Funko Pop vinyl figures and a hyper-detailed Lego set of Gotham City.
