Batarang. It’s a funny word. And, until Frank
Miller turned them into nasty little shuriken, it’s kind of an odd weapon for a
grim nocturnal avenger, at first blush. But watch this video and you will never
laugh a Batarang again.
The homage to the Dark Knight’s ranged weapon of
choice comes from Victor Poulin, who crafts all sorts of throwables over here. The first thing I thought
while watching that video was, “wow, that’s going really far.” Then I thought, “that
would probably hurt, especially if it were made of metal.” Batarang. You don’t
want to get hit by one. It’d be embarrassing.
