Character:
This Commissioner Gordon action figure was released in 2006 by DC Direct as part of the Batman: Dark Victory Series 1. The figure is based on the work of writer Jeph Loeb and artist Tim Sale and, together with the other figures in this series, serves as a sequel to the earlier Batman: The Long Halloween line.
During Dark Victory, James Gordon is one of Batman's most important allies. Gotham City is confronted with a new serial killer known as The Hangman, who murders members of the police force on holidays. Consequently, Gordon becomes personally involved in the investigation while simultaneously having to deal with corruption and distrust within his own police department.
For this version, DC Direct did not choose Gordon's traditional suit and long trench coat. Instead, he is based on his tactical appearance from Dark Victory, complete with protective gear. This makes this figure clearly distinct from the earlier Commissioner Gordon from the Batman: Hush series.
The design is based directly on Tim Sale's characteristic art style. The figure is approximately 6.5 to 6.75 inches tall and features 15 points of articulation, making Gordon relatively posable for a DC Direct figure from this period.
Commissioner Gordon was released alongside Batman, Scarecrow, and the Robin & Penguin 2-Pack in the original Dark Victory series by DC Direct.
