DC Direct: Dustin Nguyen B&W Batman Statue

I love Dustins work.... but not this statue. Well sculpted as the sculpture reflects his art but the pose is not very good and the overall feel seems recycled from previous B&W's

[JBElliott]

I like Nguyen's art and the statue is nice too. I'll be picking it up. It reminds me of the Mignola B&W, but not quite as nice.

I must be thinking of something else when I think of Nguyen, then, cuz that ain't it.

They going to do a B/W Batman for every artist who ever pencilled Batman?

Dustin is Bud of mine and I don't think this really captures his work that well, being said that I believe they are jumping too many artists from the silver early bronze age to do pieces of todays artists styles.

Honestly, I'd almost want my name off that if I were Dustin. I would've never guessed that they were basing that off of his art in a million years. It's really that face that just did not translate well at all.

I don't mind them doing current artists, just do them well. This is the second misfire for me in a row (that Tony Daniel B&W pose just looks weird to me). I think someone at DCD is getting tired of this line, too, and is trying to kill it.

Hahaha It must be the same person that has killed every DC line over the years

I guess I'm in the minority... I actually like it. This line is good and bad in it's interpretations... and this aint bad.
