Wonder Woman #11 is out today from DC Comics and is an Absolute Power tie-in. The issue starts with Wonder Woman playing Go Fish with Billy Batson, Mary Batson, Bobo the Detective Chimp, John Constantine, Jim Corrigan and Madam Xanadu. When an Amazo robot shows up, Billy turns into the Captain (yes, he's still Captain Marvel to me), Mary turns in Mary Marvel and Jim turns into the Spectre. The back up feature is part 8 of "World's Finest" that finds the Super Sons, Damian Wayne aka Robin and Jon Kent aka Superboy, going to see a Black Canary concert with Lizzie Prince aka Wonder Girl. No, I haven't been following this feature, but I might have to now.

Batman: Caped Crusader Batmobile
This is the best shot of the Batmobile from the new Batman: Caped Crusader animated series that I could get so far. Lookes like it might be a two-seater and has a retro muscle car look. The cartoon will start on August 1, 2024 on Prime Video. I wonder how long it will be before we see a Hot Wheels version.

Imaginext DC Super Friends Series 1 Superboy Prime
I picked up this Imaginext DC Super Friends Series 1 Superboy Prime action figure yesterday at the local Walmart's. He's pretty cool looking for one of the most hated characters from DC Comics. I love the way that his left eyebrow is raised plus he has a red cloth cape. His accessory is the kryptonite cuff bar but it does not glow in the dark (a missed opportunity if you ask me). I only need Aquaman and Batman to complete the set.

Imaginext DC Super Friends Series 1 Martian Manhunter
I picked up three more DC Super Friends Series 1 mystery bags this morning. Naturally, one of them was Blue Beetle, which I already have. Luckily, I managed to get a Martian Manhunter. He's pretty cool looking for he has a cloth cape. However, his accessory is a little lame for it's basically a clear stand that you plug in to the hole in the bottom of one of his feet. I guess the purpose it to make it look like he's floating. All the other action figures got something to put in their hands. Poor Martian Manhunter got an accessory that you put in his foot. Guess who gets to float in the back when it's time to display them all?

Coke x Marvel Wolverine Digital Phone Wallpaper
I posted about the Marvel Nick Fury Coke Can 2024 almost a month ago. I received an email reminder from Coca-Cola about the AR experience and the instant win game. To be honest, I forgot all about it so I decided to play the instant win game. I won this Coke x Marvel Wolverine digital phone wallpaper. Naturally, I wasn't on my phone when I played but on my desktop. So here it is if anyone wants to use it and are on their phone.

The Boys Season 4 Streaming Now Ad
I can't believe that I haven't made a post about The Boys until now. The first three episodes of season 4 is streaming now on Amazon Prime. I watched them a few days ago and enjoyed all three episodes. I have watched previous seasons and enjoyed them too. Karl Urban as Butcher steals the show for me. The Boys is based on the comic book series that was originally published by WildStorm and then picked up by Dynamite Entertainment. While I highly recommend reading the comic series and watching the tv series, I should warn you that both are definitely for adults only.
Note: the ad image and the link has now been removed due to DMCA complaints.

Imaginext DC Super Friends Series 1 Man-Bat
I don't know if I was lucky that I found this Imaginext DC Super Friends Series 1 Man-Bat action figure on Tuesday or not. He has to be one of the saddest looking Man-Bats that I have ever seen. For starters, the wings on his arms looks more like catfish fins. He appears to be wearing a utility belt harness contraption that crosses his chest and back. To top it off, his accessory is a katana sword. I guess the claws on his feet and hands are not enough. At least, his face is scary enough and he does have large bat-like ears.

Imaginext DC Super Friends Series 1 Swamp Thing
I picked up three more Imaginext DC Super Friends Series 1 mystery bags on Tuesday. Naturally, I got Bane again so I'm thinking he's probably pretty common. I did luck out and found a Imaginext DC Super Friends Series 1 Swamp Thing action figure. His entire legs glow in the dark along with most of his arms and torso. Hard to see in the below photo but he has red eyes. His accessory is a brown vine staff that I had some trouble putting in his hand.

Imaginext DC Super Friends Series 1 Blue Beetle
Blue Beetle is the third and final Imaginext DC Super Friends Series 1 action figure that I found last Tuesday. His right hand and forearm is covered by an energy weapon. The wings on his back are translucent blue. Blue Beetle's accessory is a translucent blue shield.
Will I get any more Imaginext DC Super Friends Series 1 mystery bags? Probably because I would love to have Swamp Thing and Man-Bat. Overall, they are not bad action figures for under five dollars.

Imaginext DC Super Friends Series 1 Bizarro
Bizarro is the second Imaginext DC Super Friends Series 1 action figure that I found last week. He's so ugly that he's cute. What makes him really cool is that he has a fabric cape (non-removable, of course). Bizarro's accessory is a parking meter that he ripped up from the ground. His face and hands looks like they should glow in the dark but they don't.

Imaginext DC Super Friends Series 1 Bane
The first Imaginext DC Super Friends Series 1 mystery bag that I opened on Tuesday had Bane. Part of the action figure's costume glows in the dark in front and back. I was really hoping that the white part of his mask would have also glowed but no such luck. Bane also comes with a weapon accessory that fits best in his right hand.

Imaginext DC Super Friends Series 1 Wrapper and Insert
I picked up three Imaginext DC Super Friends Series 1 mystery bags on Tuesday at the local Walmart's. Each package was $4.72, and they only had less than a dozen left. I didn't even see these before so I'm not exactly sure when they were stocked but the insert has a 2023 copyright date. Each action figure comes with an accessory.
The wrapper shows Batman, Superman and Wonder Woman in the lower left-hand corner. I'm only showing the front of the wrapper because the back is too shiny for my scanner to pick up the small print.
The outer side of the insert also shows Batman, Superman and Wonder Woman along with a gorilla with a battle axe, a female Troll and dinosaurs.
The inner side of the insert is the checklist for all nine action figures in the Imaginext DC Super Friends Series 1 set. The set includes Swamp Thing, Bane, Man-Bat, Batman, Martian Manhunter, Superboy Prime, Bizarro, Aquaman and Blue Beetle. Swamp Thing and Bane as glow in the dark features. Notice that there is a Batman action figure but no Superman and Wonder Woman figures.

Marvel Nick Fury Coke Can 2024
This Marvel Nick Fury Coke can was given to me by my sister. I'm not even trying to collect the series this year. She likes Coke and I don't. Besides I'm a little miffed that you have to scan the image to unlock extra content. After several tries, I gave up because the page just doesn't load on my phone. It's more frustrating than fun.
