This caused some articles, including this one, to be coerced out of our staff. A few days later, a federal judge threw out the acquisition based on Bruce Wayne&#8217;s inability to appear and the site reverted to its proper owners. <!--more--><\/p>\n<p>This week\u2019s Most Requested figure is one DC\u2019s oldest and most famous citizens. Perhaps more than any other one person, he has put DC Comics on the map. Since his initial appearance, he has propelled the company from its humble beginnings printing a handful of funny books, to the multimedia empire that it is today.  For this, the company has even taken the name of the book he first appeared in as their own. Of course, we are talking about the world\u2019s most famous billionaire, Bruce Wayne.<\/p>\n<p><center><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.itsalltrue.net\/newsimages\/wayne\/brucewayne.jpg?w=640\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\"><\/center><\/p>\n<p>For decades, Bruce Wayne has kept DC Comics afloat with sheer willpower and stubbornness. Any toy line based on that company would be remiss to not include Bruce Wayne as an action figure. We know what you\u2019re thinking \u2013 Bruce Wayne has had several figures already. But ask yourself this question, can there really be enough representation of such an important cultural icon? Of course not.<br \/>\nThe decision for Mattel here is not \u201cshould we produce a Bruce Wayne\u201d figure, but rather \u201cin which of his designer clothes should he be showcased?\u201d <\/p>\n<p>There are a variety of options. He has worn the finest suits from the top designers. He could be featured in a jet-setting Fioravanti. Or meeting with heads of state in a Caraceni. Or perhaps just a night out on the town with a few women clad in his favorite Huntsman. No, none of these would do for a man of Bruce Wayne&#8217;s pedigree. Only a tuxedo would be appropriate.<\/p>\n<p>A tuxedo si the only choice for the magnanimous Bruce Wayne. He would stand resplendent on any shelf in his black trousers and ivory jacket contrasting with his perfectly quaffed, jet-black hair. It would easily be the most important, essential DC Classics figure to date. <\/p>\n<p>And Mattel should plan to insert him into a lineup immediately. The Wayne Enterprises Toy Division is always looking for new acquisitions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"_themeisle_gutenberg_block_has_review":false,"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_is_tweetstorm":false,"jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_options":[]},"categories":[6,18,10],"tags":[321],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/pObc6-vj","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":2890,"url":"http:\/\/www.itsalltrue.net\/?p=2890","url_meta":{"origin":1941,"position":0},"title":"Most Requested Year-End Poll: Choose Your Own","date":"December 18, 2009","format":false,"excerpt":"This year, we've featured eighteen Most Requested articles.
