When director Zack Snyder released a photo of Ben Affleck, looking somber in the new Bat suit, Photoshop savvy netizens inserted him into sorrowful scenarios, and the Sad Batman meme was born.
When the studio released a photo of Superman from Batman V. Superman: Dawn of Justice they put rain droplets in the foreground, preventing enterprising satirists from developing yet another meme. They underestimated the power of Photoshop. May I present Sad Superman: cut out, with the droplets removed, and polished to perfection. I even threw in a colored version Sad Batman, with feet and a cape I’d added on.
Copy the PNG files and send these characters out on your own adventures.
To see more of the crazy things I’ve done with Sad Batman, take a look at my article on the perils of Living with Batman Syndrome, and don’t forget to check out my Design Gallery to see other comic book and movie parodies.



These are the original photos:
And these are my cut outs:


Have fun.
This is a good job out of you!
Thanks, that’s how I spent my Thursday this week.
This is what you do when you’re not writing? lol!
Yes it is. I get goofy.
Why the hell not, eh?!
*Initiates slow clap* Awesome. These were great. Poor Keanu Reeves 🙁
I know, right? I can only aspire to be so famous that sad photos of myself (of which there are many) become a thing on the internet some day.
Truth be told I’m a fan of all the “sad” subjects of these photographs. I just love Photoshop too.
