GameStop Celebrates The Halloween Season With Exclusive Product Line of DC Super-Villains
October 18 2018 - 10:09AM
Artist Jim Lee Brings Comic Book
Super-Villains to Life with One-of-a-Kind Apparel and Collectibles
– Only at GameStop
October is the month when it’s “good to be bad”. With Halloween
around the corner, it’s not surprising to see wanna-be villains
come to life unleashing their complex schemes to rule the world. To
celebrate the great Super-Villains of Gotham City, GameStop and
BioWorld and with the help of renowned DC comic book artist Jim
Lee, have created the first-of-its-kind villain product line, just
in time for the sinister month of October.
In partnership with Warner Bros. Consumer and DC, GameStop is
featuring its exclusive DC Collection by Jim Lee Super-Villain
Capsule – The Joker (Hush) that released on National Villains Day,
October 15 for $24.99. This GameStop exclusive Funko POP!
showcases the infamous Joker with his clown-like appearance and
calculating grin, capturing the comic-book likeness of one of
Gotham City’s master criminals.
“Most people admit to wanting to be the hero in a comic book
story, but who hasn’t also fantasized about being the villain at
one time or another, too? Villains can be cool characters, too,”
said Janet Bareis, senior vice president of Collectibles for
GameStop. “Pop culture products like the GameStop DC Super-
Villains product line appeal to our customer’s interests, passions
for having fun and frankly, their inner geekiness.”
