I had to toss my classic Superman blue t-shirt out last week due to a couple of holes that were getting bigger. I went to Walmart's earlier to shop for a new one but they didn't have any in stock. Instead, I found this t-shirt with the Grim Reaper sitting on his skull throne for only three dollars. Seems appropriate considering what's going on in the world now.

Goodnight, Lyle Waggoner
Sad news today for Lyle Waggoner has passed at age 84. For me, he will always be Steve Trevor on the Wonder Woman tv series from the 1970s. Others will know him from The Carol Burnett Show. He was also the first male centerfold in Playgirl in 1973.

Women Wednesday: Hawkwoman From Hawkman #22
I just finished reading Hawkman #22 and the best part is Hawkwoman. I noticed that I haven't posted much about her on here so I decided to change that today since it's Women Wednesday.
Here's the cover for Hawkman #22 from DC Comics that hits the stands today and I highly recommend that you pick up a copy too:

Black Widow Sticker For International Women's Day
Today is International Women's Day and I just happened to get this Black Widow sticker in the mystery machine (it's actually #9 in the Avengers Assemble 2018 series):
Note: The vending machine jammed after getting this one so it ended up costing me fifty cents instead of a quarter.

Hot Wheels Justice League 5 Pack Now Available
The new Hot Wheels Justice League 5 Pack is now available exclusively at Amazon. Character cars include Superman, Aquaman, Batman, Wonder Woman and Cyborg. Each premium die-cast car are sold separately too. They look cool but my only complaint is that Batman is the only one featured on the packaging. Maybe the rest of the Justice League are too busy racing their cars.
Note: This is post #2200.

Superhero Sunday: Aquaman Bulletin Board
I used to have this Aquaman bulletin board from 1979 and got it the same time that I had the Superman bulletin board. My sister had the Wonder Woman one. Unfortunately, the Aquaman and Wonder Woman bulletin boards were destroyed by water damage years ago. The image below is not mine but one I found at some foreign auction website. I'm still looking for an image of the Wonder Woman bulletin board from 1979.

Stickers For Leap Day
I've been saving my quarters since Christmas for the local vending machines with stickers and temporary tattoos. Since today is leap day, I decided to try my luck at the only store in town that has them. Unfortunately, the machines with the Pocket Patches and the temporary tattoos were both jammed. Luckily, the Mystery Machine was still working and it was only a quarter while the others were fifty cents. I ended up with 13 stickers including four Marvel Avengers (#1 is Captain America, #6 is Avengers Assemble, #7 is Loki and #11 is Ant-Man that are my first ones of this set), the first Need4Speed sticker (I have others in the series), two Pocket Patches fabric tattoos (#3 and 6), Pet Shop Sticker #9 (Mousestache), Trolls #5 and the first four UglyDolls stickers.
