Super Content Creators
As part of the partnership, FaZe Clan and DC will collaborate on a limited-edition comic book that will feature FaZe Clan content creators as superheroes.
Parallel to the release of the comic, the esports organization will also launch the “Faze x Batman” merchandise line which will include jerseys, hoodies, and mousepads. The merchandise will be available for purchase on September 24th. This drop will follow DC Comics celebrating Batman Day on September 19th.
FaZe Clan x DC – worlds and industries
While FaZe Clan will be the first esports organization to create a comic with DC, Batman has already visited the industry earlier this year. In the six-issue run of Batman: Zero Point, the caped crusader was pulled into the Fortnite universe and provided an interesting peek into Epic Games’ multiverse.
“It’s been an honour to work alongside such an iconic brand like DC. We loved the idea of taking on a new life form and creating something tangible for our fans for this special collaboration. To watch FaZe Clan transcend gaming into traditional entertainment over the years has been nothing short of extraordinary and we can’t wait for our fans to see all of the incredible projects we have coming up.”Xavier Ramos, Head of Marketing at FaZe Clan
Daniel Cherry III, General Manager at DC Comics, stated that DC were excited to partner with FaZe Clan to share a special, custom Batman story with the amazing fans of the gaming world. They see this partnership as a great opportunity to invite even more fans to the DC universe.
With this partnership, FaZe Clan continue their impressive streak of collaborations within this year ranging from McDonald’s and Takashi Murakami to OpTic Gaming and Xbox.
