Women Wednesday: Photon Funko Pop

Disney Movie Insiders had two new Funko Pops promoting The Marvels movie a few weeks ago. One was Captain Marvel for 800 points and the other was Photon for 500 points. I had enough points to get either one but not both. Since the Photon Funko Pop was for a limited time, I decided to get that one. I'm so glad that I did too because she's awesome and the photos below does not do her justice. There are six figures in this set that includes Captain Marvel, Photon, Ms. Marvel, Dar-Benn, Nick Fury and Prince Yan.

McDonald's Ms. Marvel Mini Figurine

Last Tuesday found me getting another Disney 100 Happy Meal from the local McDonald's. I got the usual cheeseburger, fries and Coke. I also got Stitch and Ms. Marvel mini figurines. The Stitch figurine will probably go to my sister since she loves the little alien. My favorite of the two, of course, is Ms. Marvel. The mini figurine stands at 2 1/4" tall including the clear base. She has both arms raised and her left is all purple to indicate that she is using her powers.

Women Wednesday: Introducing Drummer from Outsiders #1

Outsiders #1 from DC Comics hits the newsstands today. On the cover are Luke Fox aka Batwing, Kate Kane aka Batwoman and Drummer. Fans of WildStorm's Planetary will know the name but this is a new character. This is like the twelfth version of the Outsiders not including specials (volume 3 lasted for fifty issues plus an annual from 2003 to 2007). This issue starts a twelve-issue series.



Note: There is also a six page preview of Batman: Off-World #1.

Cleaning Moongem Comics Concludes

I finished cleaning Moongem Comics this afternoon. I deleted a lot of posts including those promoting SuperHeroStuff t-shirts, dead links and trailers.

Cleaning Continues at Moongem Comics

 I did some more cleaning up of posts here at Moongem Comics this afternoon. This time around I deleted a lot of posts with dead pictures and videos between 2010 and 2013. Most of them dealt with movie trailers and various t-shirts.

Cleaning Moongem Comics 2006 to 2009

I have spent a few hours today cleaning posts on Moongem Comics from 2006 to 2009. I got rid of some broken images especially those from PhotoBucket (remember when they used to be good?) and broken videos.

McDonald's Groot Mini Figurine

Here is the McDonald's Groot mini figurine that I got in the Disney 100 Happy Meal. He's 2 1/4" tall and was a little hard to photograph since he has a clear base.

Women Wednesday: Birds of Prey 2023 #1-3 Covers

I didn't pay much attention to the new Birds of Prey #1 that came out in September from DC Comics. Maybe it was because the new team consists of Black Canary, Batgirl (the Cassandra Cain version), Harley Quinn, Big Barda and Zealot (you remember her from WildC.A.T.S. right?). Dinah gathers the women together in order to find her sister, Sin. John Constantine shows up in Birds of Prey #2 to help out Dinah and King Shark shows up towards the end. What really drew me into the series is the cover of #3 because it has that very worn and used look to it plus the Birds look to be facing Wonder Woman. She does appear within the issue along with Green Arrow, who was last seen at the beginning of the first issue.




Birds of Prey #3 came out today and I realized that I had not posted about the Birds of Prey since 2014.

DC Super Friends Notebooks

My sister actually picked up three DC Super Friends Notebooks at the local Dillons a few weeks ago because they were on sale. The one featuring Batman and his rogue gallery was sixteen cents while the other two were twelve cents each. Now that is what I call one hell of a price reduction.

Hot Wheels 2023 Royal Purple Batmobile

I found this Hot Wheels 2023 Royal Purple Batmobile at the local Dillons the first week of October. It's based on the Batman: The Animated Series cartoon. It's #169 of the main series and #5 of the Batman subset. I think this is either the first or second time that I actually completed a Batman subset. There's been so many over the years that it's starting to keep track plus I'm running out of room on my wall to hang them all. There are two other colors: black and gold. I have two of the royal purple Batmobiles since my sister picked up one for me too.

Hot Wheels 2023 Bronze Batmobile

I picked up this Hot Wheels 2023 Bronze Batmobile along with the White Batmobile that I posted yesterday back in September. This is based on the Batmobile from the cartoon series, Batman: The Brave and the Bold. It is an alternate paint job of #137 in the main series and #4 in the Batman subset. I also have the Dark Maroon Batmobile version.

Hot Wheels 2023 Flash White Batmobile

I actually picked up this Hot Wheels 2023 Flash White Batmobile back in mid-September at the local Walmart's. It is #103 in the main set and #3 in the Batman subset. While the Batmobile appears in the Flash movie, it's not white. It's pretty cool and I'm thinking of getting another one to open up for the fun of it.

Women Wednesday: Hallows' Eve: The Big Night #1

It's Halloween Hangover time. We only had nineteen little tricksters last night due mostly to the chilly weather. I still have at least one more treat that I just had to post today.

Hallows' Eve: The Big Night #1 came out last week from Marvel but it was too late for last week's post.

Check out what happens when she puts on a Captain America mask (cool costume alert):
