Sexy Sunday: Alternate Justice League #43 Bombshells Cover

This alternate Bombshells cover to Justice League #43 features Wonder Woman, Supergirl and Mera. Check out their cool uniforms and specialized belt buckles:

Too bad the actual comic story inside this issue is chapter three of the Darkseid story. I haven't been following it and don't really care to do so.

Sexy Saturday: DC Comics Bombshells #5

This should have been the cover to DC Comics Bombshells #5 instead of the Wonder Woman and Mera cover that was also on #4:

After being called a traitor by the leader of the Soviet's Night Witches, Kara Starikov puts up a fight. Not only does she fly but she also seems to be bulletproof. Unfortunately, she is forced to surrender when her sister, Kortni Duginovna, is held captive. They are brought before a group of generals that will decide what to do with her. Kara tells them that she came from the stars while her adopted mother was pregnant with Kortni. When asked about her abilities, she tells them that she has strength, speed, invulnerable skin and recently flight. Kara is asked to demonstrate her powers and she does by using her heat vision on the chandelier, which causes the room to go dark. When the room is bathed in light again, she is shown next to a mural featuring her and Kortni wearing costumes. They are then given the names Supergirl and Stargirl.

Women Wednesday: Goodnight Yvonne Craig

Sad news for Yvonne Craig, TV's Sexy Batgirl of the 1960s, Dies at 78.

Yvonne Craig (May 16, 1937 - August 17, 2015)

Not only was she Barbara Gordon aka Batgirl on tv's Batman but she was also the green skinned Marta on Star Trek. She appeared in lots of tv shows stretching from the 1950s to the 1980s.

She also appeared in several movies such as It Happened at the World's Fair and Kissin' Cousins with Elvis with whom she dated.

Barb Wire #3 Preview

I can't believe that I haven't posted anything about Barb Wire before now. I didn't even know that she was back in a new series from Dark Horse. Here is the cover from Barb Wire #3 by Adam Hughes:

You can read the five page preview here.

Sexy Sunday: DC Comics Bombshells #4

DC Comics Bombshells #4 picks up shortly after the events of the last issue. Steve Trevor is a prisoner on Themyscira and Princess Diana aka Wonder Woman is tending to him. The other Amazons and her mother are not happy about her wanting to leave to help fight the Germans during WWII. She goes to the queen and tells her of the horrors of the outside world. Mera of Atlantis aka Aquawoman shows up to help Diana break him out.

Hanna-Barbera Super-Heroes #1 T-shirt

ShirtPunch produces some really cool t-shirts but they only last for twenty-four hours. This Hanna-Barbera Super-Heroes #1 t-shirt features a fake cover featuring updated versions of Space Ghost, Mightor, Blue Falcon, Multi Man from the Impossibles, Zandor and Tara from the Herculoids, Captain Caveman, Frankenstein, Jr. and Birdman.

I wish this was a real comic series even though DC Comics updated Space Ghost a several years ago.

Constantine to Appear on Arrow

Good news for DC Comics horror fans for Matt Ryan to Reprise 'Constantine' Role on CW's 'Arrow':

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. You might know him from his role as a villain Marcus Scarlotti on Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D..

Sexy Sunday: DC Comics Bombshells #2

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:
