Bowen's Daredevil Mini Bust Saturday, May 30, 2009

One of Randy Bowen's latest editions and one of my favorites.
The movie made a mockery of Marvel's Daredevil character unfortunately, but truth be told, Daredevil has been one of the most consistently, well-written books in comics in the last 15 years. It's a shame Ben Affleck and Director Mark Steven Johnson had to crap all over the Daredevil mythos when they introduced the character to the movie going public. The movie was a nightmare for Daredevil fans.

This is one of the MANY in my mini-bust statue collection as Randy Bowen is one of my favorite sculptors and his Marvel Comics license of characters hooked me from the start. These busts are always extremely quality in detail and portrayal of character and always stay somewhat consistent in look and feel over it's 13-year run. I hope to document most of my collection on this blog eventually.

DD's billy club wire, the extremely detailed Gothic base with the gargoyles and the paint job of the red costume coloring stand out in this piece.
