7-1 / 2-foot-tall bronze Batman statue unveiled in Burbank – CBS Los Angeles

 


BURBANQUE (CBSLA) A 7-1 / 2-foot-tall bronze statue of Batman was unveiled in Burbank on Friday.

The 600-pound statue, located on the AMC catwalk, was sculpted by Alejandro Pereira Ezcurra and based on a drawing by DC Comics publisher and creative director Jim Lee.

“Now Batman has found another amazing home here in the heart of Burbank, the city in which so many of his stories were created, animated, filmed and directed,” Lee said in an unveiling video Friday. “I am honored that this beautiful, larger-than-life Batman statue is based on one of the iconic poses from a story I have drawn called ‘Batman Hush’.

City officials hope it will be the first of several “selfie spots” that draw people to the area and highlight the city’s position in the entertainment industry.

DC Comics and Warner Bros. partnered with the city for the project.

“Batman is one of the world’s most iconic characters, representing justice, strength and fearlessness,” said Pam Lifford, President of Warner Bros. Global Brands and Experiences.

Burbank Mayor Sharon Springer encouraged Batman fans to share their photos of the statue on social media using the hashtag #BurbankBatman.

“The Batman sculpture and those to follow help present Burbank as a premier tourist destination and will further showcase the city’s statue as the media capital of the world,” Springer said.
