Brainstorm is a Facebook group where artists can take part in various challenges. This month, the challenge was to redesign Batman (and the Batmobile). The results are probably not the kind of Dark Knight Bob Kane had in mind.
Below are some of the best entries. While most of these slant sci-fi, there are some great historical ideas as well (along with the amazing fantasy take, above, done by Jason Kang).
You can see all the entries at Brainstorm’s page.

Cool.
There is probably no version of Batman in existence that Bob Kane ‘had in mind’, given it’s unlikely he’s responsible for anything other than the name.
A few things come to mind. Batman WoW crossover, Batman Crysis crossover, Batman assassins creed crossover, Batman Mass effect crossover….The possibilities are there.
Batman 1714 has promise for an alt-history version. I’d be surprised something similar has not been done before? I’m not really widely read on the Batdude, but I have read Gotham by Gaslight which I recall is similar in concept.
I remember reading a Batman graphic novel that included a medieval variant. Can’t remember what it was.
