Women Wednesday: Wonder Woman Reviews Herself

A video of Miss Hannah Minx reviewing a Wonder Woman action figure dressed as the Amazon Princess can be found here:

Superman Returns American Flag

I found this image of Brandon Routh from Superman Returns with an American flag in the background and I could not resist posting it:

Thrift Store Find: Batman Forever Game

This Batman Forever game from Parker Brothers was released in 1989. I found it at a local thrift store on Wednesday for three dollars. It has cards, two-sided board, tokens and a cassette with voices and sound effects from the movie. A four page instruction booklet was also in the box but I did not scan them. The object of the Batman Forever game is to have Batman and Robin battle Two-Face and the Riddler. On Claw Island, Batman fights the Two-Face Thugs in order to rescue Dr. Chase Meridian and Robin. The first to beat the bad guys and rescue the good guys wins. There are sixty cards in all with the majority being Police (14), the Riddler's Box (7) and Two-Face Thugs (21).

Garfield Is New Spider-Man

No, Garfield the cat will not be the new Spider-Man but rather Andrew Garfield will be the new Peter Parker in the new movie(s) according to various places such as Newsarama's Andrew Garfield Cast As Spider-Man:

Thrift Store Find: Red Justice (Justice League Book)

I found Red Justice by Michael Teitelbaum (Bantam, March 2003) yesterday afternoon at a local thrift store for fifty cents. This is based on the Justice League cartoon series from a few years ago. The back cover has the following text:

"Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Green Lantern, Hawkgirl, The Flash, Martian Manhunter. Together they are the Justice League - sever super heroes working together to save the world. Red Justice. The Justice League has been called to the Ural Mountains in Russia to shut down a decaying nuclear reactor - but in doing so they also cut off the power to a long-forgotten cryogenic lab hidden dep underground. There, a group of genetically engineered meta-humans are accidentally revived. Code-named Red Dawn, they are endowed with powers that rival those of the Justice League, threatening its very existence. Has the League really met its match?"

Women Wednesday Bonus: Wonder Woman Vs Medusa

From Wonder Woman #600 comes this pinup from Ivan Reis, Oclair Albert and Rod Reis (click for larger image):

Women Wednesday: Wonder Woman's New Costume

I first seen Wonder Woman's new costume at Amazon Princess last night before rushing to read the in-depth article at DC Universe: The Source. The redesign was done by Jim Lee and I like the red top with the blue jacket. I really do not like the leggings and footwear. She needs her red and white boots back. The wristbands do look cool though.

Superman #700 Wallpaper

I liked this scene of the Man of Steel kissing Lois Lane so much from Superman #700 that I just had to make it my current desktop wallpaper:

The Last Airbender: Appa And Momo Launcher

The second toy from McDonald's The Last Airbender Happy Meal series is the Appa and Momo laucher (the former is the big six-legged Sky Bison while the latter is the small lemur). This also came with a trading card but mine was a little warped. The back has the following text:

"Air Nomad. Appa is the only known living Sky Bison, a mystical creature from the Air Nation. App helps Aang and his friends on their quest by flying them on his back."

Here are some pictures of the Appa and Momo launcher with trading card:

The Last Airbender: Aang With Glider

McDonald's Happy Meal currently has toys from The Last Airbender, a live action movie based on Avatar: The Last Airbender cartoon. I was lucky to get the first toy, which was Aang with glider. There are twelve toys in the set but I doubt that I get them all since I don't eat that many Happy Meals. Aang's arms move up and down but he is a cool figure without the two part glider that looks more like a folding fan. I was surprised that the toy also came with a trading card. The back has the following text:

"Air Nomad. Aang was frozen in ice for over 100 years before he was found by Sokka and Katara. Aang is the Last Airbender and has the ability to control and bend the air around him."

Here are some pictures of Aang with glider and trading card:

Blog Alert: The Brave And The Bold: The Lost Issues

The Brave and the Bold: The Lost Issues is full of Batman teaming up with characters from various comic companies including DC Comics and Marvel Comics. Ross is the creative genius behind the great team ups. One of my favorites is the Dark Knight teaming up with the Sorcerer Supreme.

Superman #700 Covers

DC Comics celebrates the 75th anniversary of the Man of Steel with Superman #700 (August 2010) now on sale with a cover by Gary Frank:

The variant cover is by Eduardo Risso, which is a homage to Superman #233 cover by Neal Adams:

Moongem Comics Hit Forty-Five Thousand

Looks like the counter for Moongem Comics hit forty-five thousand sometime today. The top ten keyword phases this time around are the following:

black scorpion
superman with a blonde
wonder woman wrestling
alison angel touched by man
womenwrestling black vs withe
supergirl vs
elvira
where to find dr pepper iron man II cans
elvira mistress movie macabre
marvel women comic wrestling

I cannot believe that I am still getting visitors looking for Alison Angel. I would post more of her if I could her with more comic characters. I would find a Supergirl vs Elvira wrestling match to be interesting. So far that I know, no one has done a wrestling video featuring the Mistress of the Dark.

The answer to number eight is anywhere you can buy regular Dr Pepper cans. Unfortunately, the Iron Man 2 cans might all be gone by now since they were only available for a limited time.

Women Wrestling Wednesday: Ronald McDonald Vs Wonder Woman

With Happy Meals once again under fire and Wonder Woman #600 coming out this month, this wrestling video seems appropriate:

Elvira Returns To TV In 2010

Halloween news is coming early this year for I found this entry from Elvira's "B" Log:
"Sunday, June 20, 2010:
"The return of Elvira's Movie Macabre
"It's official! Elvira's Movie Macabre will be making it's return to television this Fall with all NEW episodes! All dates, times, and channels are TBA later this summer. The show is syndicated (national) so times & channels will depend on your area/market. Stay glued!"

Dr Pepper Cherry Iron Man 2 Box

Here are some pictures of the Dr Pepper Cherry twelve pack box promoting the Iron Man 2 movie that I had (I won another X-Box Live theme from the code found within):

While there are still plenty of Iron Man 2 toys at the local Wally World, the Dr Pepper boxes are almost all gone (not surprisingly is that there are still plenty of Diet Dr Pepper, which I have not yet bought).
