Raven Bust - Women of the DC Universe

Part of Series 3, DC Direct offers Raven as part of their Women of the DC Universe. I love the fact that they keep giving us someone different.

Designed by Amanda Conner
Sculpted by Jack Matthews
Size 5.75"h x 3.5"w x 4.25"d
Type Bust
Ship Date June 2010
Retail Price $60.00

Zimm's Two Cents
I enjoy my Titans, and like the X-Men, I try to accept them no matter what the cost. This bust is not one of those times. Flat and unappealing, I really don't like this.

Points in Favor
  • It's Raven. She can be so cool.
Points Against
  • She could be so much cooler looking.
  • Statue lacks a lot of depth and personality.
  • I know who she is, but is she really supposed to be so pasty looking?
  • This piece really does not have the detail of so many other busts out there. Look at her buttons, or eyes, or the tower.
  • The base doesn't fit. I know, I know. It is the Titan's Tower; however, there are so many other things that they could have done with it.
Recommendation: Pass. Not much more of an explanation is needed here.
