    Best BATMAN POSTER ever!!!

    Hi Guys!

    Quick Question:

    I have been looking for this Batman poster for years and have never been able to find it anywhere.

    It is my all-time favorite piece of Batman artwork!

    I don’t really know much about it other than it was available around the mid 1970’s. I think there was a full series of these super hero posters done in this art style.

    Can anyone shed some light on these? Who is the artist? Who manufactured these posters? And most importantly, where the heck can I get one?

    Thanks!

                  Dude, these posters rock. My favorite set of posters. I have the compete set of 8 (Bats, Supes, WW, Shazam, Spidey, Cap, Thor, Hulk).

                  I had Batman as a kid (I think I got it at K-mart). I saw them advertised in Heroes World catalogs as well. I found Spidey at FX and the rest on ebay. Took me years to find them all, and yes, they are pricey.

                          The name "ThoughtFactory" or "Thought Factory" keeps coming to mind.

                          You might want to investigate that company name as the posssible maker of these posters.

                                      "Eat your heart out" is right, Hue!

                                      I love Alex Ross' Batman art, but does not compare to this piece (in my opinion.)

                                      Thanks for the Thought Factory lead, Mike. I think you may be onto something.

                                      And Thanks so much for posting the Superman image, KW! It looks awesome!


                                      This is so exciting! I haven't seen these images since I was 10 years old!

                                      Does anyone else have any images that they can post of any of the other Thought Factory Superhero posters from the 1970's? Spidey? The Hulk? Captain America? Wonder Woman? Shazam?

                                      Gee... it's too bad Drew Struzan never painted Robin The Boy Wonder for this set of posters.

                                          Wow Scott, that's a nice accomplishment! I'm jealous. Not the clearest pic but you get the point.
