    I've kinda warmed up to it (except maybe for those arms). It's simpler, and flashy.

    Series 1 is terrible, Series 2 is so much better.

    But does Alexander Luthor have an attachable afro?

    Can Alex Luthor peel back his gold uniform for homoerotic star blasting? Because that was my favorite part of that secret files comic.

    Yeah, series 1 of IC is a bit bland, though Mongul and PG came out well. And now folks can buy a Power Girl figure that doesn't cost over $100.

    Dual Atoms...(if this came with a third pack-in of Atom Smasher...I'd shit. )

    IMG_2654.jpg

    The new Hawkgirl and Dr. Midnite look good, but Mr. Terrific and Hourman look...off.

    McGuinness' Nightwing is way too buff. However, I will buy the figure because they don't make enough Nightwing figures (at least for his modern costume).

    img2650ev1.jpg

    All 3 of those are cool, although the original one in the back looks weird with the shiny paint and the blue gloves.

    Except, they're not. :cry: They were going to include them as pack-ins for the Mojo wave of Marvel Legends, but in the end Toy Biz found they would be too expensive (the price of oil is having a very negative effect on the price of plastic). Jesse Falcon did bring these to at least show fans what could have been.

    There is hope that if there's enough demand, Hasbro will make them. But seeing what Hasbro's done so far with Toy Biz stuff... :?

    Heh, all of the McGuinness style figures are way too buff, not to mention more or less the exact same figure with a different head. I still think the perfect figure is the Hush Nightwing, yet like the original Power Girl, Im not spending $100 on him.

    DC Direct figures retail at $14.99. Infinite Crisis series 2 probably wont hit stores until the middle of next year since I don't think they've officially been solicited yet.

    Factory X made one a few years ago. They still pop up on Ebay every once in awhile. They usually go for anywhere between 300 to 500 dollars.

    I like the Batman Through The Ages set or whatever it's called more than the IC Series 2 Bats. They just look higher quality.

    Fuck Alex Ross, though. He never puts lenses on Batman.

    Morrison's New X-Men arc:

    [spoiler:d6271e80f1]After being infected with virus, Cyclops retrieves Xorn, a healer muttant they found recently, to cure the people infected. He stays on to teach the "special class" at Xavier's. A side-effect of him healing Xavier was that he got his use of his legs back. Eventually, Emma Frost is attacked, and some events lead to Xorn revealing that he's actually Magneto. He sends Wolverine and Jean Grey into the sun, kidnaps Xavier, and takes over New York in a few days. The part where he reveals himself is after Xavier says "X-men emergency! To me!" or something. It's pretty much the most badass Magneto moment ever.[/spoiler:d6271e80f1]

    everything ive read about ross suggests that he is depicting the past. sort of the "good old days" which sort of explains a lot. even when he does new characters he tries to give them the older feel. ive read it described as "timeless" but it seems so rooted in older books so i cant really give it that.
    anyway,to me ross best thing going and biggest problem is his consistancy with characters. every so often id like to see a new look for a character.

    That's not a statue. That's the House of M Iron Man. He's coming in a House of M boxset from Toy Biz. Whether he has the giant jetpack type things on his back, I dunno, but he should have the cannon.

    Also included are House of M Hulk, Inhuman Torch and It (The Thing)
