Superman Takes Flight with New Comic Book Statue

James Gunn‘s Superman is currently dominating the box office, showcasing the return of the beloved character. In just two weeks since its release, the film has collected over $400 million globally, proving that the DC Universe is back in full force. David Corenswet has made a remarkable impact on the legacy of actors who have donned the iconic Man of Steel cape. As the DC titan continues to achieve new heights, McFarlane Toys has launched an exciting new Superman action figure that fans will want to add to their collections.

Part of McFarlane’s esteemed DC Direct resin statue collection, this meticulously crafted 1:10th scale statue is inspired by the artwork of Clayton Henry. The Superman Red and Blue statue boasts a height of 6.3 inches and captures a dynamic moment where Clark Kent dramatically tears off his suit to reveal the iconic Superman suit featuring the recognizable “S” emblem on his chest. While McFarlane has produced numerous Superman statues in the past, this particular piece stands out due to its portrayal of Clark primarily in his civilian reporter outfit. The unique sepia-toned blue and red color scheme enhances the statue’s visual appeal, making it a striking addition to any collection.

DC Comics Reclaims Its Throne in the Film Industry

Despite a challenging financial landscape for DC films over the last few years, Superman has reignited audiences’ passion for this legendary comic brand by showcasing what can be achieved with the right creative vision and heroic storytelling. Featuring a fantastic ensemble cast, thrilling direction, and a nostalgic musical score, the new iteration of the DC Universe is off to an impressive start, capturing the hearts of fans worldwide.

The merchandise associated with the film has also played a crucial role in its success. McFarlane Toys led the charge with their impressive lineup of seven-inch scale DC Multiverse action figures. Not only did Corenswet’s Superman receive significant attention, but other characters such as Mr. Terrific (Edi Gathegi), Lex Luthor (Nicholas Hoult), and Metamorpho (Anthony Cardigan) have also been immortalized in plastic form. Their nostalgic Super Powers line features iconic heroes like Guy Gardner’s Green Lantern (Nathan Fillion) and formidable villains like The Engineer (Maria Gabriela de Faría) and Ultraman. However, some notable characters remain absent from the collection, including Hawkgirl (Isabela Merced) and Lois Lane (Rachel Brosnahan), sparking hope that they will join the lineup soon.

“Superman’ Marks the Beginning of an Exciting New Era

You can secure your tickets for Superman now by visiting Fandango’s official website. However, it’s important to note that this is just the initial release in a more expansive cinematic universe. Upcoming films such as Supergirl and Clayface, along with series like Lanterns and Peacemaker Season 2, are all on the horizon. Before you rush to the theater, consider pre-ordering McFarlane’s Henry Superman Resin statue available on their website for $129.99 USD. This highly anticipated figure is expected to be released in January, making it a perfect addition for collectors and fans alike.
