The H4H Black Bat Action Figure!

The April 6th post entitled Heroes 4 Heroes displayed a teaser of four public domain characters, including the Black Bat.

I didn't notice it at the time, but someone later took a guess on the Facebook post from which the image originated that it might hint to the creation of action figures based on public domain characters. One of the gentlemen tagged in the teaser stated that it was more than just a hint.

I could have sworn that I saw Jay Piscopo confirm that it was exactly that on his Instagram account yet when I went to locate the post again later, I was unable to do so. No matter, he added the image below on a Facebook group about public domain characters about an hour ago as I write this.

That appears to be the same figure that was announced in January 2015. Now, apparently, it will be used to raise funds for the Heroes 4 Heroes program. I stand to be corrected, because the Heroes 4 Heroes name comes up relatively often in searches, but I believe it is this group that stands to benefit.

Artist Jay Piscopo posted the image below on his Facebook page with the caption "Coming soon! Stay tuned!"

Four other gentlemen are tagged in the picture, each assigned to a character, if that means anything; Joeseph Simon (Black Bat), Brian Augustyn (Airboy, lower middle, for those who may be unfamiliar, unlikely as that seems), Paul Clarke (Red Panther) and Michael Norwitz (Weekender, top middle).  

I don't want to speculate too much on this just yet but it has the makings of a pretty dynamic team.
