Superman: Black & White?

I was just thinking about how amazing the Batman: Black & White mini-statue line is and was wondering if they'd gave Superman the same treatment. Or maybe Red-White-& Blue tones. Sound silly? Good idea? Maybe DC can launch a title first. Just some thought.

'Specially because of the scale and style. They'd look cool together.

Just think about it: Joe Shuster, Curt Swan, Gil Kane, Neal Adams, Jerry Ordway, George Perez, and Alex Ross, if he's not overrated as it is! The list is endless, as is Batman's.

I think a Superman Black and White would be awsome... but I think they are trying this already with Superman Famous Covers Mini Statue line... In all honesty... DC Direct need to not market a Batman or Superman statue for at least 6 months... they have this wonderful universe... I would love a Green Lantern Black and White... or a Flash Black and White... or Martian Manhunter... Blue Beetle, Wonder Woman, Catwoman.. well you get my drift here...

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

I agree with Kirthew, DC has really dropped the ball by ignoring their "lesser" characters in their catalogue. If they had a regular bust line, not a "themed" line which they could bail on, and just put out a nice mix a la Bowen they would sell much better. BDs success can be traced to their use of characters. Let's face it everyone can get Bats and Supes stuff but Booster Gold or Mr. Miracle or Wildcat or anyone like that is going to be darn cool and some 30+ collector is going to go crazy for it...
Oh yeah, the Batman B & W line is from the Batman B & W comics... I don't think Superman would necessarily be appropriate... Although B & W really highlights the sculpts doesn't it?
