Batman fans have a lot to look forward to following New York Comic Con. Brand new DC Collectibles featuring Batman will be released in the summer of 2019 and fans at NYCC got a chance to see what promises to be a fantastic collection featuring the Dark Knight and popular incarnations of his iconic cowl. The DC Gallery: Batman Cowl collection celebrates eighty years of Batman’s history with looks drawn from comics, video games, and television. The cowl from his current Rebirth run will be released in May of 2019 followed by the Arkham Asylum video game cowl in July. Creative Director of DC Collectibles, Jim Fletcher, has expressed his pride and excitement for the new line.
“In some instances, like the Bat-cowl, the accessories of the DC Universe are just as iconic as the characters,” said Jim Fletcher, executive creative director of DC Collectibles. “Our DC Gallery line makes these popular accessories the star of the piece and offers something new and different for collectors to display on their shelves. The new Bat-cowl line pays tribute to the Dark Knight’s different looks throughout his nearly 80-year history. Every fan has a favorite Batman, and our goal is to bring to life as many incarnations of the Caped Crusader’s signature cowl as we can, whether it be from comics or another source.”
Additionally, fans can expect several new statues of both Batman and his supporting characters including Harley Quinn and The Joker. Greg Capullo’s Dark Nights: Metal Batman will also be among the statues released. The full list of newly announced releases and is provided below:
