In 2014, the U.S. Postal Service released stamps celebrating Batman, one of the most iconic superheroes in American lore.

Journey Group’s president Greg Breeding served as the art director and designer for this memorable pane of stamps.

Inspired by the depictions of Batman throughout his 75-year history, Greg chose to showcase eight unique designs in a pane of 20 stamps.

Four versions of the iconic DC Comics super hero are depicted from four eras of comic book history.

In addition, Greg designed four incarnations of the Bat-Signal.
