What is that strange beacon in the night sky? If it is the bat signal, it's time for Batman, the Dark Knight, to spring into action. You can be his sidekick with the help of these easy, step-by-step Batman drawing tutorials.
16 Easy Batman Drawing Ideas
Batman
Sketch a full-bodied portrait of the Bat in a classic pose. With his cape flowing behind him, Batman is poised to throw his Batarang.
Catwoman
Meow, Catwoman is on the prowl! With an eared mask similar to Batman's own disguise, this black cat is almost a villainous alter ego of our hero.
Harley Quinn
This strange supervillain is dressed in the costume of a medieval jester or harlequin, from which she draws her name. Take note of her narrowed eyes and malevolent smirk.
The Joker
The Joker may have a pale face and red lips, but he is no clown. This sharp-nosed villain is one of Batman's most notorious adversaries.
Batman Logo
The Batman logo - the silhouette of a bat inside an oval - marks Batman's suit, Batmobile, and is the symbol that Gotham City authorities use to summon him when trouble is afoot.
Batman’s Face
The Dark Knight is ready for his close-up. You can sketch the pointed ears of his costume, his glowing white eyes, and his frowning mouth.
Deathstroke
Deathstroke is a super-soldier gone wrong. Learn how to sketch his muscular frame and the two-toned mask that hides his chiseled face.
Lego Batman
"Darkness... no parents... really, really rich... kind of makes it better. Create your own Minifigure of this songwriter by day, crime fighter by night.
Joker's Face
Who is Batman's most important enemy? The Joker would no doubt lay claim to the title, especially since he made it onto this list twice. Sketch his hair, eyes, and maniacal grin - the features made repulsive by his unfortunate dip in a chemical vat.
The Justice League Logo
Batman is usually content to go it alone, but he doesn't always fly solo. Sometimes, he teams up with Superman, Wonder Woman, and other members of the Justice League to face Earth's biggest foes.
The Bat Signal
When danger arises, you can signal the Dark Knight with this spotlight signal. He may not be the hero Gotham needs, but he is the one they deserve.
The Riddler from Batman
Got a question? No doubt the Riddler does. No one will doubt your drawing skills when you've puzzled out this portrait.
The Batmobile
Superheroes don't have to fly - some drive really cool cars inside. Add this sketch to your automobile drawing portfolio.
Gotham City
Did you draw the Bat Signal above? Did you know that it could be seen by the whole city, even across the river? This skyline sketch will lay out the entire city before you.
The Penguin from Batman
That's no tuxedoed gentleman; he's not a flightless bird, either. This sharp-toothed criminal is one to watch out for. Can you sketch his portrait to inform the police?
Chibi Batman
Batman puts off a tough persona, but even the Caped Crusader is cute in chibi form. He's as muscular as ever, but his large head and small body give him a childlike appearance.
More About Drawing Batman Universe Characters
Below, you will find multiple versions of this famous superhero. There is the early blue and grey version of his bat suit. There is also the classic black suit with a yellow logo and utility belt. And finally, there's Lego Batman. Remember, he only works in black - and sometimes really, really dark gray.
Of course, if you're going to defend Gotham City alongside its hero, you will need something to defend it from. That's where the supervillains come in.
You can meet the Joker, Harley Quinn, Catwoman, and Deathstroke - if you dare. Remember what Two-Face once said: "You either die a hero or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain."
You can even prep all your gear with the Batman logo and the Justice League logo.
Grab your pencils and paper and turn on the lights. The night may be darkest just before dawn, but you need good lighting to draw the Dark Knight!
