James Gunn’sSupermanis about to kick off the new DCU on the big screen. With that has come a whole ton of anticipation for the latest iterations of some of DC’s most popular heroes. For example, Batman is at the top of that list with the Justice League member set to appear in the upcoming filmThe Brave and the Bold. The character has already made a shadowy cameo inCreature CommandosSeason 1, but we don’t know how this Dark Knight will look or who will be playing him. Before that happens,McFarlane Toyshas debuted their latest moody Batman figure.
A part of McFarlane’sDC Multiverseseven-inch line,thisBatman figureis based on the “Western World” comic storyline.Because of this, The Caped Crusader is sporting a Jonah Hex-esque Wild West outfit complete with a brown trench coat and a cowboy hat. Despite the change in setting, Batman is still seen with his iconic Bat-Emblem on his chest. The figure also comes with a McFarlane signature art card, a Batarang, and a stand.It’ll be $24.99 USD.
Superman & Green Lantern Take Flight
The other two figures in this wave are theSupermanvillain Eradicator andGreen Lanternfrom the “Return of Superman” arc(both $24.99). The robotic version of the Man of Steel comes with two extra hands, an art card and stand, while Green Lantern includes a hammer, base and an art card. The latter of which depicts Hal Jordan’s version of the character. This Green Lantern is all armored up thanks to the help of his power ring. The armor can also glow-in-the-dark. Hal Jordan will return to live-action in the DCU seriesLanterns, where the popular hero will be played byKyle Chandler. Other Green Lanterns that are joining Hal in the series areAaron Pierre’s John StewartandNathan Fillion’s Guy Gardner. The HBO series is filming now, but Fillion will be making his DCU debut inSupermanthis summer. As for the Eradicator, fans might have to wait a while forDavid Corenswet’s Supermanto take on this story-specific adversary, as the android was a direct response to the iconic “Death of Superman” arc. Eradicatornow joins Bizarroin McFarlane’s recent Superman comic collection.
