McFarlanes newest 1:10th scale DC Direct resin statue depicts Batmans first official appearance inDetective Comics#27 from 1939.
Thats something unique to the early days of the character.
This statue also stands at 17.5 inches tall and is up for pre-order now.
The Dark Knight battles crime in Gotham City with occasional help from Robin and Batgirl.
In his first handful of appearances, Batman was also seen taking down the mob.
This didnt debut until the spring of 1940.
Batmans costume would see many changes over the years as well.
Staples like the bat-cowl, bat-ears, gray bodysuit and yellow utility belt would stay consistent over the years.
Yet each new artist gave the classic look their own spin.
That costume even received an updated modern interruption in The New 52sBatman: Zero Yearcomic arc.
