I love the BATMAN: BLACK AND WHITE Statues and this new one that's just been announced totally cracks me up! This latest statue from DC Direct is designed by Sergio Aragonés with a classic MAD MAGAZINE look! This cold-cast porcelain statue measures approximately 6.5" high x 7.5" wide x 4" deep, is painted in monochromatic tones, features a Bat-logo-shaped base and is packaged in a black and white box. It will retail for about $ 90.00 and goes on sale around January 18th, 2012.
A friend of mine sent me a link the other day to website for an amazing Graphic Artist named Mark Fredrickson. His artwork is extremely cool & I've known about his work for a long time but never knew his name, ha! You see, he created a few of the covers for MAD Magazine when they have done a parody of the Batman films. You might remember seeing the image shown here of Alfred E. Neuman as The Joker ( Heath Ledger version ). Mark also did a lot of the Stock Art ( or Style Guide Art ) used to promote THE DARK KNIGHT Movie Franchise. His images were placed in magazines, advertising, & other media packaging. Anyways, it's all good stuff & if you would like to see more of his work then just click HERE!
Here's a brand-new, just released, bat-product that is pretty awesome! This special collector set is based on one of the most popular and award-winning graphic novels of all time, Paul Dini and Bruce Timm's BATMAN: MAD LOVE!Included in this set are action figures of Harley Quinn and The Joker, both boasting new color schemes and sculpts as well as the 64-page reprint of the award-winning BATMAN: MAD LOVE comic, which defined the complicated and cracked relationship between cute 'n' crazy Harley Quinn and her Puddin', The Joker.The figures are approx. 7" high & Retail Price is around $ 39.99 but I've seen them a little cheaper so that's cool. Be sure to check out the prices at TFAW, that's where I buy a lot of stuff & they have great service.
