It’s a bird, it’s a plane… it’s an entire wave of DC 8 inch clothed superheroes from NECA! Boy are we thrilled to share these booth images coming out of SDCC 2026. If you’ve been collecting NECA’s amazing 8 inch Batman 89 clothed figures, you already know just how good this format can be, and now NECA is expanding the DC line in a really exciting way. We’re looking at a Christopher Reeve Superman, a Batman 66, Green Lantern, another version of Superman, and a black and grey Batman. That is quite the lineup! The clothed figure format has such a classic feel to it that connects right back to those beloved Mego figures so many of us grew up with, and seeing NECA bring this level of quality to these iconic DC characters is super exciting. I love how they’re pulling from different eras and interpretations of these characters, from the Christopher Reeve Superman we all fell in love with on the big screen to the classic Adam West Batman 66 look. And a Green Lantern? How cool is that?! Will we see even more DC characters join the line? Only time will tell, but this is an incredible start. So let’s take a look at the DC 8 inch Clothed Superheroes NECA SDCC 2026 booth images!
Here’s a closer look at the full DC clothed lineup all together, and I like the way each figure’s disc stand keeps them uniformly presented while letting those fabric suits and capes breathe naturally. The alternate head sculpts displayed at each figure’s base, from Superman’s Clark Kent-ready portrait to Green Lantern’s Hal Jordan swap, really show how much variety is packed into each release.

Superman’s red boots have a glossy finish with sculpted cuffs that break neatly at the shin, and the blue fabric on the legs shows a tight, clean weave that keeps the silhouette looking proportional rather than baggy. Displayed alongside a ’66 Batman and what appears to be another clothed figure to his right, you can see how the red cape’s length and flow really complement the overall 8-inch scale.

Here’s a closer look at Superman’s portrait without the heat vision effect, and the Christopher Reeve likeness really holds up, with that signature curl falling just right over the forehead and a determined, slightly furrowed expression. The S-shield has a textured, almost embroidered quality to it with raised red borders framing the yellow “S,” and the yellow belt buckle below has a clean oval center that sits flush against the red trunks.

Batman’s dark navy cape has a scalloped hem with those signature pointed bat-wing cutouts along the bottom edge, which is a nice nod to the show’s campy aesthetic. Flanked by John Stewart on the left and Superman on the right, you get a great sense of how the ’66 version’s lighter gray fabric and chunky yellow belt pouches give him a distinctly retro feel compared to his shelf-mates.

A close-up reveals just how well the Adam West likeness translates at this scale, with that stoic jaw line peeking out beneath a dark blue cowl that has subtle mint-green eyebrow accents sculpted into the mask. The yellow utility belt features individual pouches and a bat-emblem buckle in a metallic bronze finish, sitting right below a gray fabric bodysuit with the classic yellow-and-black oval bat insignia.

Flanking John Stewart are two versions of Batman, with the ’66 Adam West version on the left showing off that flowing fabric cape in black and the black-and-gray version on the right. It’s cool to see the alternate Hal Jordan head sculpt displayed at the base alongside the power battery, with brown hair and a green domino mask offering a completely different look for the figure.

John Stewart’s fabric suit nails the classic green-and-black color blocking, with that white Lantern Corps insignia printed cleanly onto the chest area. The translucent green ring construct effect piece is a great inclusion, and I like how the power battery lantern accessory matches that same deep green as the suit.

Batman takes the center stage here flanked by Superman and John Stewart, and you can really appreciate the ornate gold grapple gun accessory, which has a detailed mechanical sculpt with layered cylindrical sections and a pronged hook at the tip. Something I appreciate here is how all three figures share a consistent scale and fabric tailoring approach, with each suit showing its own distinct texture and weave.

Batman’s black-and-gray look is a sharp contrast to the ’89 and ’66 versions, with a dark bat symbol printed directly onto the gray fabric bodysuit and a sleek cowl featuring tall, pointed ears. The gold utility belt has a chunky sculpted buckle and segmented pouches, and the black cape drapes with a nice fabric weight across the shoulders.

Superman’s heat vision head sculpt has a warm, pinkish-red glow painted around the eyes where the translucent beam attaches, and that black sculpted hair curl holds its shape nicely against the forehead even with the effect piece in place. Batman looms just behind him with that gold grapple gun held high, and the size difference between the two figures is minimal, confirming how well-matched the scale is across this expanding clothed DC lineup.

Superman’s heat vision effect is a fantastic touch, with translucent red beams plugging directly into a swappable head sculpt that captures Christopher Reeve’s intense expression, teeth clenched mid-blast. The tailored fabric suit has a really nice texture to it, and you can see how the red cape drapes with genuine weight over his shoulders alongside that crisp S-shield.

Here are some fun shots of the full lineup together, and the Penguin really steals the show with that tall sculpted top hat and the textured olive overcoat layering over his squat frame next to the ’89 Batman’s spread cape. Catwoman’s whip coils tightly beside her on the stand, and Superman’s bright blue-and-red palette on the far left provides a nice pop against the darker tones of the Batman Returns crew.

Here’s a closer look at the Batman Returns trio, and I’m really digging how well these three work together as a set. The Penguin is wrapped in layered fabric with a fur-collared overcoat in olive green, a striped shirt underneath, and a monocle on that grotesque Danny DeVito sculpt, while Catwoman’s glossy black catsuit has those signature white stitch lines running throughout, and she comes with a swap-out head sculpt resting at her feet.
