I think Power Girl and Wonder Woman are trying to catch up with Supergirl for how many series reboots they can get. This one hits the newsstands today and her secret identity is Dr. Paige Stetler. She also gets a costume change by wearing a jacket that covers up her boob window. Oh, Omen also appears, and Superman shows up at the end much to the surprise of no one.

Goodnight David McCallum
Sad news for David McCallum, Heartthrob Spy of ‘The Man From U.N.C.L.E.,’ Dies at 90. Not only did he play Illya Kuryakin on that tv series but he was also Donald "Ducky" Mallard on NCIS. One of his early movie roles was that of Judas Iscariot in The Greatest Story Ever Told.

Hot Wheels 2023 Tooned Batmobile Duo
I picked up these two Hot Wheels 2023 Tooned Batmobiles two days ago at the local Walmart's. I almost didn't get them because the back copyright on the card says 2021 and thought I already had them. They are both #1 in the Batman mini set and #3 in the main set. There are actually five different color variations. They are both based on the classic 1966 tv Batmobile.
The version with the blue tint windshield is actually the fifth variation. It has green pinstriping and supposedly a dark green body (it looks black to me even under a bright light).
The Hot Wheels 2023 Tooned Batmobile with the orange tint windsheld is actually the third variation (yes, it looks yellow in the photo below but that's due to the lighting). It has a black body with yellow and red pinstriping (it looks reddish-orange to me).

Hot Wheels 2023 Dark Maroon Batmobile
I picked up this Hot Wheels 2023 Dark Maroon Batmobile from the local Walmart's a few days ago. It is based on the Batmobile from the Batman: The Brave and the Bold cartoon series and the first one was released in 2010. I wasn't for sure if I had it or not since the copyright year on the back of the card reads 2021. It's #4 of the Batman subset and #137 of the main set. According to Hot Wheels Wiki, there is also a bronze version.
Note: I corrected this post after realizing that it was dark maroon and not bronze.

Women Wednesday: The Marvels Happy Meal Box
I did manage to get a couple of undamaged Happy Meal boxes promoting The Marvels movie. On the left side, there are images of the Nick Fury, Captain Marvel, Marvel's Goose and Princess Carol action figures at the top. The majority of the side is devoted to showing how you can put the action figures on your phone or tablet for more fun.
The front of the box features Iman Vellani as Ms. Marvel, Teyonah Parris as Photon and Brie Larson as Captain Marvel. A brief description of their powers is also listed for each of the superheroines. The right side of the Happy Meal box features images of Kree-Supremor Dar-Benn, Ms. Marvel, Photon, Captain Marvel and Prince Yan on the top. The majority of that side is taken up by the scan code to power up your toy at the Happy Meal website.
