Too much literalization. These sculptors need to look at Neal Adams more
and Alex Ross less. When Bruce Wayne puts on the batsuit, he does not
become Bruce Wayne in a batsuit, he becomes BATMAN. The costume does
not obey realistic laws of form, folds, gravity, etc. It becomes more than a
second skin -- it becomes his only skin.

Sharp Gladiator, but I just bought this one…



…and despite my "association" with the character he doesn't seem like one
for "double-billing".

Did order the Eaglemoss version, tho.
