Batman987 Archivespretty awesome, but Lego Batman is the awesomest.

With The Lego Batman Movie arriving in theaters Feb. 10, Warner Bros. is celebrating the hero's moment of glory by transforming the studio's promotional billboards into elaborate Lego versions, which will adorn the side of the Warner Bros. Studio for the next week.

In addition to Lego Batman's fellow (but clearly not as epic or awesome) DC heroes -- The Flash, Arrow, Supergirland the inhabitants of Bruce Wayne's home town, Gotham -- a number of other Warner Bros. TV shows got a Lego makeover for their own billboards: The Big Bang Theory, Mom, 2 Broke Girls,The Middle andEllen.

The display was unveiled Monday morning, with The Big Bang Theory's Mayim Bialik, The Middle's Atticus Shaffer and 2 Broke Girls' Kat Dennings and Beth Behrs on hand to witness their characters' transformations into Minifigure form.

The billboards line the outer walls of the Warner Bros. Studio lot in Burbank and are visible from Olive Ave, in case you happen to be in L.A. and feel like checking them out.

Fun fact: More than 10,000 Lego bricks were used to create the Lego versions of the billboards, building practical sets and characters to be photographed for each. The creation process took more than 300 hours of building and compositing.

Once printed, the billboards took an estimated 70 total hours to install, requiring more than 1,000 feet of aircraft cable and in excess of 4,000 feet of electrical wire.

But the original Man in Black (and yellow) isn't content to simply invade WB's billboards -- Lego Batman will also pay a visit to The CW's superhero TV lineup to remind them who's boss.

This week's episodes of Arrow, The Flash, Supergirland DC’s Legends of Tomorrowwill each feature a Lego-inspired end card, featuring custom Lego versions of the characters, and the Dark Knight will appear in a series of promotional movie spots during the shows.

Fans will be able to see Will Arnett's Lego Batman interacting with Lego Flash (voiced by Grant Gustin), Lego Green Arrow (Stephen Amell), Lego Supergirl (Melissa Benoist) and Lego Atom (Brandon Routh) in the TV spots.

All in a week's work for Lego Batman.
