If the concept of a "digital" statue seems odd, considering statues (especially Batman Black and White statues) are common decorations in many folks' collections, the premise of Veve's statues is to create digital pieces that are individually owned by 🌠collectors through the use of NFTs.

A recent controversial topic in the art world, including among creators and collectors of comic book art, NFTs are essentially unreproducible digital certificates of ownership that denote the ꦰholder of the NFT as the 'owner' of a piece of digital art. 

. Like mining bitcoin, producing NFTs requires significant electricity 💖consumption in order to power the computers which create the NFT. This has led to widespread criticism of the idea of creating NFT art, which drastically increases the environmental impact of individual digital artists.

In terms of the NFT statues on order, Veve has drawn on three classic Batman artists for the designs, as with previous physical versions of the statues. The new digital line includes three Batman statue❀s, based on the art of Jae Lee, Gary Frank, and Darwyn Cooke, as well as a statue of Nightwing based on the art of Jim Lee.

Here's a gallery of the four digital statues:

I've been Newsarama's resident Marvel Comics expert and general comic book historian since 2011. I've also been the on-site reporter at most major comic conventions such as Comic-Con International: San Diego, New York Comic Con, and C2E2. Outside of comic journalism, I am the artist of many weird pictures, and the guitaris𝕴t of many heavy riffs. (They/Them)
