DC Comics Artists Alley Batman GID Vinyl Figure by Joe Ledbetter x DC Direct – A DC Universe Exclusive!

This week has been a brutal week for DC Comics and its employees. Not only was a ton of editorial staff laid off, but evidently Warner Bros shutdown DC Direct completely and let go its entire team! The Blot was super bummed because I was such a fan of so many of their products, including the epic DC Artists Alley vinyl figure line. Since the line is probably ending, now is the time to get the very last colorway of Joe Ledbetter’s killer Batman vinyl figure! The Glow in the Dark Batman vinyl figure showcases Ledbetter’s vibrant mix of literalism and playfulness. This GID Batman is an anthropomorphic delight, bringing a cute but fierce design to the Dark Knight.

The DC Comics Artists Alley Glow in the Dark Batman Vinyl Figure by Joe Ledbetter x DC Direct stands 6.41” tall and retails for $59.95. There is a catch though, you must be a DC Universe subscriber (which is clearly getting phased out and merged into HBO Max) in order to purchase this figure at shop.dcuniverse.com.

DC Comics Artists Alley “Aqua-Vision” Batman Vinyl Figure by James Groman x DC Direct – A DC Universe Exclusive!

Yesterday was a brutal day for DC Comics and its employees. Not only was a ton of editorial staff laid off, but evidently Warner Bros shutdown DC Direct completely and let go its entire team! The Blot couldn’t believe it… I assume this means all those future DC Artists Alley vinyl figures are now canceled. One DC Artists Alley figure I didn’t even know existed was this DC Universe Exclusive “Aqua-Vision” Batman Vinyl Figure by James Groman. This vinyl figure features Groman’s monstrous reimagining of Batman in a very special “Aqua-Vision” colorway featuring a green, purple and orange color scheme.

The DC Comics Artists Alley “Aqua-Vision” Batman Vinyl Figure by James Groman x DC Direct stands 8.46” tall and retails for $65. There is a catch though, you must be a DC Universe subscriber (which is clearly getting phased out and merged into HBO Max) in order to purchase this figure at shop.dcuniverse.com.

I just love the idea of a bat in a Batman suit, a penguin as the Penguin, etc. There’s something there that’s quite funny and interesting and really excites me. I like to think that these animal Batman characters inhabit a parallel universe where Gotham City is entirely populated by anthropomorphic critters, including the Caped Crusader himself.
