The Classic Neal Adams Batman Pose
This is the
very first Neal Adams statue of a DC character. The project began while Jason
Spyda Adams was visiting DC Direct discussing what sort of sulpture they'd like
to do. He'd made some samples of their characters to show off and it was obvious
that doing a Neal Adams piece would be a great jumping point.
Next was to pick a pose. At first, a standing pose was considered, but when
Neal was going over ideas and considering his participation in the history of
comics, it became obvious that they needed to do a classic Neal Adams action
pose. One in particular always stood out. it wouldn't be easy to occomplish,
but it was the best choice. The pose was from a famous Joker story Neal drew
years ago. The image was used many times over the years and is still considered
by fans to be the most exciting and dynamic image of Batman ever done.

From these images, Neal did the following sketches for his son Spyda to begin sculpting from.

Sketches needed to be altered to make the manufacturing possible and soon the sculpture was going along smoothly.
