Rutland and its Halloween Parade was featured in more than 20 DC Comics publications, where superheroes like Batman, Superman, and the Avengers all come to Rutland.
The statue, which was carved from a 10-foot block of marble, will feature Batman alongside Rutland Halloween Parade organizer Tom Fagan, who will also be dressed as the Caped Crusader.
From 1960 well into the 1970s, Rutland writer and comic book fan Tom Fagan invited some of the biggest comics writers and artists in the business to the annual Rutland Halloween Parade.
