For some reason, not able to look at the pictures of your customs. Just shows up with “?”s.

These are my 1/6th scale Bruce, Dick and Alfred from Unleashed Viper customs. Dick Grayson I left untouched, just as he came. The only thing I used from the Bruce Wayne figure was the head. I put it on a taller body and bought custom clothing items off of eBay. I made the ascot and handkerchief from some blue taffeta.

The Alfred figure I just completed this weekend. Again, the only thing I used from the original was the head. I put it on an extremely tall Haoyu Toys Super Sportsman 2.0 body (basically a basketball player body). The suit is custom made by Gee Whiz customs. And the glasses are some clear glasses from eBay colored with an alcohol marker to match Alfred's actual glasses. It took about 9 months for the custom suit to be completed, so I've waited a long time to see them all together. Given Alan Napier's height and how hard it is to find a suitable body that tall, I'm very happy with how it turned out scalewise.

Really cool work on these!

Thank you! I have wanted these for a long time.

I'm a big fan of the Batman bootleg Space Flyman from Asia-- it took some wrangling to get this one, first dealing with their post office not being willing to ship to the USA and then having to pay an import fee-- but its here and it's my favorite of all the ones they've done.

Digging the Kirby art, Andy!

[AndyFish]

Thanks Biff- it's a page from OMAC which is one of his craziest series, under the shelf is a page from THE DEMON which is my favorite Kirby series. Actually had the chance to get to know Jack, so they hold a special place for me.

That’s like a comic book fan’s dream!

I used to have many non-superhero comic books (westerns, romance, etc.) from the golden age with Kirby’s art. I was able to mimic that early style (where the faces and hands had a quality that I called “knobby”) when I was younger. His older style really appealed to me.

Getting to know Jack Kirby would have been a genuine highlight in life.

Here are the two Kirby pages I have displayed in my studio sorry for the small pics;





I have a lot of art up around my workspace. Batman wise, I have Lee Weeks Mister Freeze cover too.

And I don't know where else to post this-- but if you're trying to reach me you can just Google my name and I come up in the first 5-6 listings-- including my contact info. Just logged into my Instagram account and found two messages from Board Members from 52 WEEKS ago-- I don't check IG I have a college kid that handles any posting there-- and he's not good at giving me messages. Same goes for DMs here, I don't ever think to look so if you need me best to just email me.

My best bud got me a compilation of the comics
That inspired the show.
I’ve been reading it and I love it

If so, great book-- still in print on Amazon too.

A little shocked that Riddler didn't make the cover!

[AndyFish]

Looks like he got cut in favor of Batgirl.

Yeah. I am not a professional artist, but there must have been some way to get Riddler on there too. It is a great book. I love how the Official Batman Batbook cited many of the stories collected in the book you posted as being inspirations for episodes.
