Yeah, It'snot overly dynamic (he's just standing there) but they were clearly going for aniconic and monolithic look so it works.
Also, comic artists and graphic designers are two different things. And a comic artist absolutely does seethings in the round. Here's a good example of Jim Lee explaining his thought process as he draws.
In their defense, Gotham doesn't exist.

Yes, but it's still where they're currently based, which is presumably why Visit Burbank wanted to make it.

I think it looks like an interpretation of Jim Lee's artwork which is what it's supposed to be.
I don't think they were trying for realism. It would be cool to see a realistic superhero sculpture. All the proportions and anatomy are greatly exaggerated bc that's what they want because that's what comic book art is.

I didntget the Burbank connection at first either.

No, I'm expressing my opinion. If that's a problem for you two, I suggest you both make likespeed bumps and get over yourselves.

Still, not as ridiculous as the concept of "Digital Sculpting."
wait, i don't get why either of those are supposed to be "ridiculous"

and literally what the hell could you possibly mean by digital sculpting being a ridiculous concept?
Well, I know when I think "Batman," I think Burbank, California.
