Sexy Saturday: DC Comics Bombshells #3

DC Comics Bombshells #3 is set in Moscow during WWII and spotlights two very familiar blondes. Kara Starikov is obviously a combination of Kara Zor-El aka Supergirl and Kara Starr aka Powergirl while Kortni Duginovna is Courtney Whitmore aka Stargirl (or just Star). They were raised on a farm by a mother who told them fairy tales while their father was an ex-cosmonaut and supposedly a traitor. They are both recruits for the Night Witches, women bombers of the Soviet Union. A Russian soldier hits on the two girls, Kara knocks him on his butt with a thump on his forehead. After months of training, they finally take to the air but Kortni's plane catches fire and Kara saves her. Unfortunately, all the other Night Witches including their trainer/leader witness the event and label them as traitors.

I had a hard time telling them apart so I'm not sure if they are supposed to be twins or not. It's a good issue but still not as great as the first one.

Falk Hentschel Cast as Hawkman

According to Report: Marvel Villain Hired As DC's HAWKMAN, Falk Hentschel has been cast as Carter Hall aka Hawkman in the Arrow and Flash crossover that will set the stage for DC's Legends Of Tomorrow.

Harley-Davidson's Avengers Sticker Received

I posted about the Harley-Davidson's Avengers free sticker offer back in March of this year at Marvel's Avengers and Harley-Davidson Motorcycle Sweepstakes and Sticker. I finally received mine in today's mail. The front of the white envelope is rather plain with my address in small print and "Your exclusive sticker inside!" written at the bottom:

The back of the envelope states that "Inside! Your exclusive sticker from Marvel Avengers Age of Ultron in theaters now" with a Harley-Davidson #1 logo with a skull that would do the Punisher proud:

The sticker itself is 4 1/2" in diameter and features symbols for Hulk, Iron Man, Black Widow, Captain America, Hawkeye and Thor circled around the classic Harley-Davidson shield symbol in the center:

The sticker also came with a 4 1/2" x 6 1/4" card featuring a Haley-Davidson motorcycle with "Unleash your freedom" on the front:

The back of the card shows the sticker along with text that states "You're in for an epic adventure. You've got the sticker. Now put the screws to anyone who tries to keep you from the open road. See your Harley-Davidson dealer to check out the latest models or book a test ride at h-d.com/testride."

Maintenance Monday at Moongem Comics

I just spent the last hour removing Amazon ads from about fifty posts here at Moongem Comics. Mostly it was due to them being outdated. I still have a wishlist with a few items still on it.

Sexy Saturday: DC Comics Bombshells #1

What if women donned costumes first is the basic concept behind DC Comics Bombshells. The first digital issue hit the Internet today while the print version will be released August 12. The cover is by Ant Lucia while the interior art is by Marguerite Sauvage. The issue was written by Marguerite Bennett. There are some spoilers in this post so don't read if you don't want to know.

The issue kicks off with the mysterious Batwoman saving a very familiar wealthy family from a robber in Gotham City in 1940:

By day, she is also a female baseball player for the Gotham Knights:

Her girlfriend is Gotham City Police Detective Maggie Sawyer and she seems to have a really adventurous history:

Commander Amanda Waller shows up to enlist their help to end the war:

Not a bad start to the three-part series and I can't wait until the next issue. There are a few upskirt shots along with Kate and Maggie wearing lingerie. The art does have a pinup vibe, which is good considering that this is based on the Bombshells statues that were produced.

Happy Natal Anniversary to Lynda Carter

Today is the sixty-fourth natal anniversary of Linda Jean Córdova Carter:

First Official Suicide Squad Look from Comic Con

Here's the first official look of the Suicide Squad movie from Comic Con with some interesting scenes featuring Amanda Waller, Harley Quinn, the Joker, El Diablo, Rick Flagg, Captain Boomerang and Killer Croc (yes, even Batman makes an appearance):

Thrift Store Finds: Razer, Tarzan and Megamind Minion

I actually picked up the following toys at a local thrift store on Saturday morning. All three were in the same bag for fifty cents. Not bad considering all the weeks that I haven't found anything.

Razer the renegade Red Lantern action figure is the sixth toy from McDonald's Green Lantern Animated Series Power Ups that was put in Happy Meals in 2012. His arms move 360* and his chest lights up when you push the button on his back.

This Tarzan is from McDonald's Disney 100 Years of Magic that was put in 2002 Happy Meals. The only movement is that the figurine rotates 360* on the base.

This McDonald's Megamind Minion top is from 2010 and was #7 in the series. The arms move up a little when he spins.

New Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice Trailer Released

But you have to go here to watch it for the video is way too big for this blog. I'm not really digging Lex Luthor and Wonder Woman is shown way too briefly. It's a wonder that Batman can actually move in his battle suit.

Women Wednesday: Marisa Tomei Cast as Aunt May

The big news this week may just be Marisa Tomei Will Play Aunt May In The New ‘Spider-Man’ Movie:

Changes to Moongem Comics

You may have noticed a few changes here at Moongem Comics. For starters, I have transferred the tag cloud from the right side to the bottom. Yes, there is a lot of tags now and it looks like they could fill a page on their own. I have also dropped the SuperHeroStuff banner and link on the right side. Seems like it just wasting space since it was barely getting any clicks let alone any sales over the past year. I'm thinking of doing away the weekly T-shirt Thursday posts but I haven't decided yet.
