In celebration of their time and multiverse-spanning crossover, Convergence, DC Comics is bringing every era of their publishing history to fully-articulated life with “DC Comics Icons” action figures.
Hitting toy shops this November, the Icons line will feature DC Superheroes and Villains set to both their pre and post New 52 designs. Clocking in at 6’’ each, the figures come designed by famed Green Lantern, Aquaman, and Justice League artist Ivan Reis.
“Being part of this project is a great honor,” Reis told USA Today. “Knowing the ‘Icons’ action figures will be based on my art adds a new level of inspiration to my work. I was also thrilled to learn this series will feature many classic versions of the characters that were part of my childhood.”
The rollout of heroes new and old begins this November with, naturally, Batman, in his classic underwear-over-spandex uniform. The Caped Crusader will lead the first wave of three.
Read on below for DC’s official full description of every action figure, also courtesy of USA Today.
