Funko Friday: 1978 Superman and 1989 Batman Rewind Funko Pops
These rewind Funko Pops! are a great idea. Truly a nostalgia thing but, man, does it work. What we have here are the two masters of being Superman and Batman from my childhood (I would still argue they are held in the same regard today in terms of truly embodying the character).
I’m an in-package collector so apologies for not opening them up. However, we do get a good look at the Funkos by seeing them on the back. Will I open them one day? Maybe, but until then, let’s enjoy what we’ve got.
Christopher Reeve was, and still is, the ultimate portrayal of Superman. Micheal Keaton nailed it as both Batman and Bruce Wayne and set the tone for all other Batman movies to come (excluding Batman Forever and Batman and Robin but, to be fair, the overall costume design was carried through those movies).
It was wonderful to see Keaton return as Batman in The Flash. I wish Christopher Reeve was still with us. Had things not gone as they had, I’m sure he would have gladly participated in the current wave of superhero movies and TV shows as Superman in some capacity. His willingness to further the Superman mythos was demonstrated by his couple of cameos on Smallville.
