“Look! Up in the sky!” Batman is, was, and always will be my favorite DC Comics superhero. He’s my favorite overall as well, with Marvel’s Nightcrawler having been nudged into second place after a thirty plus year run as my co-favorite with Batman. Superman was popular with me as a child, but as I grewContinue reading “McFarlane Toys DC Multiverse Superman: Action Comics”

Imaginext DC Super Friends XL!
Look! Up In The Sky!!! Imaginext just released three awesome new action figures in their new DC Super Friends XL line. Based on their smaller counterparts, these three figures tower over other Imaginext toys at around ten inches tall. The first three characters to be released are Superman, Batman, and The Flash. I was fortunateContinue reading “Imaginext DC Super Friends XL!”
Superman (1948)
He’s one fly guy! Despite some questionable and rather cheap special effects, 1948’s Superman is a very enjoyable serial. It starts with the story of Kal-El’s exodus from his home planet of Krypton just prior to its destruction. The first three chapters establish him as both Clark Kent and Superman on Earth. From there, weContinue reading “Superman (1948)”
Spin Master DC Toys
Surprisingly Fun Way back in 2018 it was announced that DC Comics and Spin Master Toys had come to terms on a new licensing agreement. Starting in 2020, Mattel would no longer produce the bulk of DC’s toys. I was a bit sad about this, since I grew to love their Multiverse 6″ line asContinue reading “Spin Master DC Toys”
LEGO DC Minifigs
Series 16 I’m not a huge collector of LEGO products. My son is completely infatuated with them, though, and I enjoy watching and/or helping him build his many sets. I do enjoy looking at many of the minifigures that come with the sets and those that can be purchased individually. One minifigure collection that caughtContinue reading “LEGO DC Minifigs”

I normally avoid mentioning much of anything about San Diego Comic Con in my blog because there is so much hype and noise about the event that I am pretty sure that anything I say has been covered a hundred times over already. Saying that, I just had to pop in and mentionContinue reading “Super News From SDCC”
A Super Partnership?
At Your Local Walmart Love it or hate it, you can’t deny the reach of Walmart. While I personally tend to do most of my retail shopping at Target or other stores, sometimes a trip to Walmart is unavoidable. Starting last year, DC Comics gave me one more reason to risk life and limb downContinue reading “A Super Partnership?”
Slow Burner
Brightburn, KS I saw Brightburn a couple of weekends ago. It has a very small cast, a very simple plot, and does a decent job of telling its story. The basic premise of the film is that young Brandon Breyer has been the perfect child for his parents, Tori and Kyle, but after hitting twelveContinue reading “Slow Burner”
