Reconstructing Costumes Across Eras and Series

Kostas Seremetis, a contemporary artist whose work draws inspiration from comics, animation, graffiti, and his Greek mythological roots, has consistently released pieces that have garnered strong support from street culture enthusiasts through collaborations with fashion brands like NEIGHBORHOOD.
He began his artistic career in the 1980s, starting with graffiti. After holding his first solo exhibition in New York in 1997, he has exhibited in museums and galleries worldwide, including participating in group exhibitions with contemporary artists such as Gerhard Richter.
In Japan, he held the solo exhibition "SUPERHERO & SIX" in 2002, where he constructed a new world inspired by American comic superheroes. MEDICOM TOY took notice of his talent, releasing a limited edition KUBRICK of "kostas assassin" in 2003 to commemorate Wonder Festival 2003 (Winter). In 2005, he was one of the participating artists in the BE@RBRICK WORLD WIDE TOUR, unveiling an original chrome BE@RBRICK. That same year, the REAL ACTION HEROES "Kostas Assassin" was released.
The "BATMAN × Kostas Seremetis STATUE," released by 2G and MEDICOM TOY PLUS, is a reinterpretation of Batman, whom Kostas deeply admires. Batman first appeared in "Detective Comics #27" in 1939, and his costume has varied in color and design across different eras and series. This statue is an art piece that artfully mixes these elements, part by part.
The asymmetrical design, with its subtle yet captivating deformation, is irresistible. The striking Batman logo in yellow and black at the center draws the eye. Fans should seize this opportunity to acquire this officially DC Comics-sanctioned, miraculous three-dimensional realization and savor it to their heart's content.
