I think the TMNTs crossing over with Daredevil would have been cooler

SDCC 2015: Batman and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Crossover Announced
This sounds so awesome, but what the hell?
One of those things that I'm not sure if I want, but can't help being hypnotized by it.
Can't believe this crossover is actually happening, I hope Tynion IV uses both these franchises in creative and fan favourite situations. I'm especially looking forward to Batman vs Shredder, that's going to make the Shredder into an even more formidable martial artist if he does well against Batman.
Please for the love of god let these things happen.
- Have batman say the phrases "What the shell," "Cowabunga!" and "Turtle Power!"
- Have Batman eat Pizza.
- Have a one on one serious and GOOD one on one Batman vs Shredder fight.
- That would be absolutely dumb and stupid even by crossover standards. There's no reason to turn Batman into a TMNT catch phrase spewing machine for laughs. Besides, the IDW Turtles don't say phrase 1 or 3 in their comics.
- There are much better pizza jokes that can be done rather than having Batman eat pizza.
- Now this I absolutely agree on. A Batman vs Shredder fight needs to be done well and give both characters the credit they deserve as martial artists.
I still await the day he teams up with the Power Rangers.
And he gets his own Bat-Zord. Oh heavenly day!
This is awesome, definitely getting this. Who needs Secret Wars when we can have Batman and TMNT?!? lol
BTW, that Transformers/JL crossover looks epic have to read that now.
Yeah...so this looks super awesome and I'm probably way too excited about it. Or, this is in fact super awesome and my excitement is perfectly reasonable.

Sorry I like aspect of Batman and not just the generic parts. Meaning I like when Batman is a smart ass/cracks jokes from time to time.
Batman has almost crossovered with everything at this point. Even Batman/Gen13 almost happened.
I still await the day he teams up with the Power Rangers.
Batman doing Sentai poses?
OK...I'll admit, that would get me to pick up a Batman book.
Anyway, how long do you think he'll know them before Bats forms a contingency for the Turtles?

For laughs seems a good enough reason as any, if he's going to spew catchphrases.
Also, I think it would be kind of cool to see The Turtles face The League of Assassins. If Batman is fighting Shredder, the Turtles need something to do too, and Shredder and Ra's Al Ghul seem a solid team up to face these guys.

Time Travel can always solve that problem :)
November is starting to sound like a great month for comics. First, a new Bond series and now this crossover? I cannot wait for November to come.
this!
@sinikettu: ahhhhh this guy! (Or gal)
@teerack: There's a difference between being a smartass and a grown man who's generally a dark and brooding character say stuff like "Cowabunga." It'd be a real flaw in the crossover if they have Batman say that. Now the Robins on the other hand are much more suited to saying the Turtle's catchphrases, I could accept Tim saying it. Maybe Damian if only to fit his wry sense of humour.

I mean maybe if you've only read Millers run and the ones directly after it and around the time of the Dark Knight movies. Batman has always had a sense of human when written correctly it was just after Miller's run where the dark side was more popular and they really focused on that side of him for a while. One side of a character doesn't make his other sides vanish. Batman is a more complex character then a one dimensional emo kid. The way Scott Snyder writes Batman has been pretty perfect allowing his more human side to be shown more and actually comes off like more of a person then a robot with his reoccurring snark. Just ruling out that Batman would say it at any point in the story really screams that you have a really small and narrow and uncreative idea of Batman in your head. Most times when Batman teams up with sillier characters it's almost a guarantee Batman will do something a little silly to kinda show that he is cool with them after he's given them a hard time and been very serious throughout their whole team up.
@teerack: I totally agree he's "a more complex character then a one dimensional emo kid" in your words and I also think he has a sense of humour too. That sense of humour has never extended however to spewing one liners and corny statements, Batman hasn't done that since the 1960s. Though I do resent your comment that my dismissal of Batman saying TMNT catchphrases means I have a narrow and uncreative idea of Batman.
Likewise, you have a pretty generic and non-specific idea of Batman's character if you think he'd actually be willing to say Cowabunga. Batman's sense of humour is dry and cynical at the funniest of times, and I don't recall any team ups or crossovers with young or silly characters that Batman also does something silly, especially not recently. If you can name any examples, I'd be pretty amazed but as it stands, I find it hard to believe it wouldn't be very out of character for Batman to say cowabunga. Considering all the humour and laughs that will probably occur in this crossover from the supporting character interactions, it seems unnecessary and cringeworthy to have Batman say the TMNT's catchphrase.
- Have a one on one serious and GOOD one on one Batman vs Shredder fight.
Hopefully one with Splinter too just because.
Just one of those things I never knew I wanted until now.
Seeing the Turtles take on Gotham rogues is gonna be awesome. Ten bucks says at least one villain sees the turtles and immediately go "What the hell?"
I suspect the sight of mutant ninja turtles won't really surprise anyone in Gotham. The Turtles, on the other hand, would probably go, "This place is too freaking weird." Though I would love to see how an encounter with the Joker would go down. XD
man batman would fuck up shredder and body slam Raphael and outsmart Leonardo cuss Leonardo is a sensitive little bitch.
Which Batman villain/s will be cool to get fight with Turtles... Bane, Joker, Clayface, Croc ... and who will of them work together with the Shredder ?

Great White Shark: This town belong to Shark, and sharks eat turtles...
Killer Croc: I don't eat animal flesh, but will change menu for the dinner !!!
Catwoman: I more like to play with the rats than turtles, but this one is a big bite for me...
Poison Ivy: Whats that companions of u Batman ? You bring some turtles to eat my plants ? How pathetic !!!

And... Sir... they are teenagers, u know that u don't know with childrens !!!
Jim Gordon: This town gonna to hell with the Batman, now Gotham become a zoo... croc, whale, bats... now and turtles...
I stuck with the Two Face and Scarecrow... little help ?
I wonder if Batman is powerful & smarter to take down the TMNT infamous enemy, the Shredder! I mean since Batman did fucked up Deathstroke & vice-versa, I figure Shredder is a level underneath deathstroke in terms of skills, experiences, and feats.
New Turtles Crossover Nickelodeon turtles and classic turtles
