With a name inspired by a staple of the comic convention scene, DC Collectibles has announced a new line of “Artist Alley” vinyl statues that “merges indie design with the most iconic characters in the DC Universe.” Batman, Superman, Joker, Harley Quinn, Catwoman and more get the 3-D treatment in 2018.
“The motivation to create a line celebrating radical new artists stems from years of visiting cons and being impressed by the raw talent and artwork on display,” said Jim Fletcher, Executive Creative Director, DC Collectibles, in a statement. “When we decided to launch DC Artist Alley, we approached visionaries we felt would best represent the line, while bringing their own creative signature to our classic characters.”
Designs will include illustrator Chris Uminga’s interpretations of Batman, Superman and Wonder Woman; Barcelonian-bred artist Sho Murase’s designs for Catwoman, Poison Ivy and Harley Quinn; and HaiNaNu “Nooligan” Saulque’s take on The Joker, Batman and Harley Quinn. Each figure will also be accompanied by a print showcasing its original artwork.
