with the super-powers to make them so is Bleacher Creatures. The
innovative Pennsylvania-based licensing manufacturer, whose incredibly
true-to-life plush figures of pro-sports stars has won them official
partnerships with the NFL, NBA, NHL and MLB, will launch a brand-new
line of DC Comics plush figures on October 1
under license with Warner Bros. Consumer Products (WBCP) and DC
Entertainment, representing the greatest Super Heroes (and
Super-Villains!) in the galaxy.
Bleacher Creatures’ DC Comics roster includes Superman from Man of Steel
as well as the Batman Classic TV Series, featuring Batman from the
1960s TV show and his fellow crime-fighters Robin and Batgirl, as well
as his nemeses Catwoman and The Joker. Bleacher Creatures’ DC Comics
comic-book plush will feature Super-Villainess Harley Quinn, the Teen
Titans, and the Green Lantern Corps.
Other DC Comics–inspired entities to be represented in future Bleacher Creatures line-ups include Richard Donner’s Superman, and theatrical releases Green Lantern and The Dark Knight Trilogy.
“We’re thrilled to be working with Warner Bros.
Consumer Products and DC Entertainment to create these very special
Bleacher Creatures plush figures,” says Matthew Hoffman, founder and
president of Bleacher Creatures. “As the father of young kids who love
Super Heroes—heck, as a kid myself when it comes to Batman and
Superman—this is pretty much a dream come true. Our goal is for the
plush figures to inspire both a sense of awe and a sense of play.”
“Bleacher Creatures is renowned for their fun,
quality character plush, making them a great choice to bring the
characters of the DC Comics universe to life with their unique product
