Pose looks awkward and what's with the eyes?

I dig the pose! The eyes, I just figured part of the art direction for this piece... heavy black liner/shadow?

Amanda Connors art isn't supposed to be realistic, but semi-cartoonish with detail. Happy my favorite writer/artist is doing one.

Sad to say, this line of statues is really rough looking... While it's good to see inexpensive pieces being offered to the mainstream public, it's a shame more attention wasn't placed on face-paint details. It can make or break a statue.

Amanda Connors is one of my favorite artists, but this statue doesn't seem to accurately portray her work. The Silk Spectre statue was more indicative of her work.

I'd like to see the final product and more pictures.

I like most of the statues in this line, including this one. They've gone unique directions with it. I haven't jumped in just because of space considerations, but I still enjoy what they've done. It's a better line than the Man of Steel line, which misses more than hits.

I really like Amanda's art - but don't see her in this statue. Kinda glad seeing as there are the 2 Carmine Infantino B&W's & Darwyn Cooke Designer AF's also being offered at the same time!
